What this skill does
Monitoring Whale Activity Contents Overview Prerequisites Instructions Output Error Handling Examples Resources Overview Track large cryptocurrency transactions and whale wallet movements across multiple blockchains. Monitor exchange inflows/outflows, manage custom watchlists, and identify known wallets (exchanges, funds, bridges). Prerequisites 1. Install Python 3.8+ with requests library 2. Optionally obtain Whale Alert API key (free tier available for live data) 3. Verify internet access for API calls Instructions Step 1: Navigate to Scripts Directory Step 2: Choose a Command 1. View recent whale transactions: python whalemonitor.py recent 2. Analyze exchange flows: python whalemonitor.py flows 3. Manage watchlist: python whalemonitor.py watchlist 4. Track specific wallet: python whalemonitor.py track 0x123... 5. Search known labels: python whalemonitor.py labels --query binance Alternatively, customize with chain and threshold filters: Step 3: Interpret Results Transaction Types: DEPOSIT: Sent to exchange (potential selling pressure) WITHDRAWAL: From exchange (accumulation signal) TRANSFER: Wallet to wallet (whale movement) Flow Analysis: Net positive flow to exchanges = selling pressure Net negative flow from exchanges = buying pressure Output Real-time whale transactions with USD values Labeled wallets (exchanges, funds, bridges, protocols) Exchange inflow/outflow summaries Custom watchlist tracking JSON, table, or alert format output (--format json) Error Handling See ${CLAUDESKILLDIR}/references/errors.md for: API rate limit handling and backoff Network timeout recovery Invalid address format validation Price service fallbacks Examples Example 1: View $10M+ whale transactions on Ethereum: Example 2: Analyze if whales are selling: Example 3: Track a known whale wallet: Example 4: Export to JSON for further analysis: See ${CLAUDESKILLDIR}/references/examples.md for more usage patterns. …
