Get 5 free alertsHow it works
The Whale Watch process
- You set a threshold for ETH or ERC-20 transaction value
- We scan every 10 minutes using eth_getLogs on Ethereum
- We decode the transaction data to extract token transfers and values
- If value exceeds threshold, we prepare an alert with decoded details
- We send a webhook with the full decoded payload to your endpoint
- You're charged only when we successfully deliver an alert
