In addition to Nansen, what other useful ones are there? Here is a list of blockchain analysis tools: Parsec, Tenderly, Warden

Dune data analyst Andrew Hong compiled a list of what he considers top data search tools, including data on major protocols and DAO governance progress, as well as visualization analysis tools for wallets and contracts. In fact, in addition to Nansen, there are many free and user-friendly analysis tools available.

The following content is compiled from an article by Andrew Hong. For more details and discussions, please refer to the original article link.

On-Chain Analysis Summary

Andrew believes that the following two are the best on-chain analysis news aggregation websites, and many tools are discovered from the daily summaries of these two.

Protocols, Project Data

Understand the execution status of various protocols:

  • Dune: Provides data on NFT, staking, airdrops, land auctions, ERC20 tokens, etc., and has a search function for collectors, data dashboard rankings.

  • Flipside: Releases relevant research articles, currently testing dashboards functionality.

  • DefiLlama: Provides TVL, transaction volume, yield for major blockchains and DeFi protocols.

  • Messari's protocol/Pool board is a good alternative to DefiLlama and growing rapidly.

  • Token Terminal: Provides protocol DApps, blockchain fee revenue.

  • Artemis: Focuses more on development and community activities data of various blockchains.

DAO/Community Governance

The author believes that governance is becoming increasingly important for tracking market trends, as protocol updates become more frequent, such as investment-related or treasury utilization proposals.

  • Messari: Proposal Tracker integrates proposals for DeFi protocols.

  • Tally: More comprehensive than Messari, but mainly focuses on advancing DAO governance.

  • Boardroom: Has good search and filter functions to search for proposals based on specific keywords.

  • Agora: Supports only Nouns DAO, but the author finds it great for understanding voters or voting representatives.

Visualization Contract Query Tools

  • Dune: A dashboard built by the author that can query specific contract codes, operations, related events.

  • Blocksec/Phalcon: Provides a structured explanation of all internal contract calls, event sequences, ideal for researching event records in specific transactions.

  • Tenderly: Supports multiple chains, with the smoothest user experience and interface.

  • Blocknative: A professional browser for querying pending transactions in the Mempool of the public chain, providing real-time queries for any transactions submitted to contracts.

Wallet/Address Visualization Tools

The ability to quickly search, cross-analyze, and compare such tools is crucial. The author mentions Zapper.Fi, Rotki also offer similar features, but are not included due to poor data analysis functionality.

  • Nansen: Provides label identification for a large number of addresses, wallet analysis also perfectly matches token analysis functionality.

  • Zerion/Debank: Best free alternative tools for multiple related wallet addresses compared to Nansen.

  • Warden: Allows specific search and analysis of address behaviors, such as liquidations, loans, currently supports Aave, with plans to support Euler, Notional, and Compound.

  • Bubblemaps: Good interface for identifying relationships between whale wallets.

Transaction + Wallet/Address Analysis Tools

These tools are multi-functional search solutions:

  • Etherscan: Ideal for quickly browsing a single address, the author notes marking specific addresses to observe balances, transactions, etc.

  • Onceupon.gg: Rated as the highest tool by the author, tracks all transactions of specific tokens and wallets, quickly identifies top traders, still in the testing phase.

  • Arkham: Focuses on analysis of trading counterparts, quickly view individual/institutional trading counterparts and balances, more detailed fund inflows, outflows, can adjust the timeline to view specific wallet dynamics, still in testing.
