THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TOO WALLET TRACKING

This thread will cover how to find profitable wallets to track, how to find your favourite KOLs wallets and how to effectively track them and make profitable plays with their wallets

Will also give some insight to these BS KOLs dumping on top of your heads whilst they tweet, but we'll come back to that later

Let's dive in!

Profitable Wallets

There is a whole underground market for wallets too track whether they be Devs, insiders or KOLs their wallets are valuable as they allow early access and insight to potential multi million $ plays. The crazy thing is you can do it all yourself with just a little knowledge.

The best method to finding profitable wallets is by heading over to and find a coin that has performed well over the last week, then head to the "Top Traders" tab.

Here you can find wallets that "made it" with this play, usually 10-1000xes can be found in this tab as these are the wallets that played that coin THE BEST. Now we have to differentiate between devs and good traders to find a good wallet.dexscreener.com

For this example we will use $FWOG. FWOG launched on pump fun at 4k MC and is now sitting at a whopping $77M market cap. The top traders on FWOG have to have incredible asset management and trading abilities and so will be perfect to track.

Preferably you want to seek out a wallet that hit at least a 3-5x on size. Or if you want to be a little more degenerate you can find a 10-100x wallet, but these are much more likely to be insiders/devs.

For now I will choose this wallet seen below, they managed to turn $30000 into over $93,000 in one trade.

(Side Note) - if the token amount bought does not match the token amount sold they are likely an insider or dev who was given tokens and so can not be seen as a real "top trader" and should be avoided.

Now we will head over too and to make sure this wallet actively trades and their actions are organic and not that of a dev.

We can see the wallet is 100% organic and does actively trade meme tokens, we can also see their PnL over different time frames to make sure they didn't just "get lucky" and will bring us more gems.

On birdeye you can see every trade they take in real time which can be 1 method of tracking and copying their trades. However we will cover more efficient methods of tracking and copying later in the thread.

How to find KOL Wallets

Finding KOL wallets gives you a crazy advantage in this market as you can see what they are buying before pushing it on twitter, when they are dumping what they are actively holding etc.

It also gives you insight to how profitable they REALLY are😉

The first method is using .sol domains. KOLs may be quite open with their wallets and actually tell you their .sol domains (for example mitch or @idrawline)

However if they don't simply navigate too twitter search and search e.g. "from:@retentionjunkie .sol"

This will show any posts that KOL has including a .sol domain, then head over too paste the domain and you have their wallet!

For most KOLs it will not be this easy so we have to get creative.

Another method is backtracking transfers/giveaways from their wallets. Influencers will often giveaway some tokens or SOL to followers when they do you can easily find their wallets with this tool -

Simply input the first and last 4 numbers and letters of the recipients wallet address and hit run. You should now have their full solana address, then head over too paste the address and find the transfer transaction from the KOL by filtering the amount set and date of the transaction.

You now have your favourite KOL's address.dune.com/gkuschnik/wall…

If they aren't so generous to do giveaways all hope is not lost. Sometimes you will come across swap transactions posted by influencers. With timing/swap amount analysis we can easily find their wallet address.

See below for examples

Let's try find @_Shadow36 wallet with this trick. Head over too and find the "DONKEH" chart, copy the contract address and head over to

Head too the "Transfers" tab and filter the "Time" and "Change Amount" too suit the swap, in this example it occurred around the 21st July and was for 10.4M tokens so we will set these parametersDexscreener.com
solscan.io

And voila! We have the exact swap transaction in the screenshot, we can now click the "To" wallet starting with "FoKTT" and we have ourselves a KOLs wallet.

This method can be repeated with similar TXs like burning or LPing. Just set the suitable parameters on SolScan and reverse engineer the tx.

Another method is knowing how much of a token a KOL holds, for example @973Meech posted this SS showing he holds 50M $KIETH

We can then paste the CA of $kieth into and head over too the "Holders" tab. Look for a holder with 49,995,519 $kieth and you have his wallet!

NFTs

KOLs/Influencers may also use NFTs in their profile picture or for memes, these are quite simple too reverse as you just head over too and choose the collection they are using

Pick out any noticeable "traits" their NFT has and filter accordingly in the traits tab, and turn the "ALL NFTS" slider on as this will show unlisted NFTs as well, you should be left with a few options and should be easy to pick out the one you are looking for

Simply click into the NFT and find the owner, click on "Owner" and you have their wallet!tensor.trade

Now you know the best methods to retrieve wallets you need too ensure they are profitable and WILL MAKE YOU MONEY.

The best tools for doing so are:





You can see detailed information about traders; PnL's with these tools.birdeye.so

Now you have their wallet and know they are profitable. What should you do now?

You can manually track the trades with and consistently refresh the page to see what they are trading or;

You can use telegram bots that notify you of all buys/sells coming from that wallet, some examples are @RayBot_sol & @CieloFinance - there are a lot more so do some research and find what is best for you!

Pair these tools with a good telegram bot and you will be printing $$$birdeye.so

EXTRA USEFUL INFO

-Avoid copying/tracking MEV bots, you should be able to tell just from their txs if they are one you will just burn money copying them.
-Avoid "lucky" traders that caught 1 good play and lose on the rest, it's just not worthwhile
-KOLs are just like me and you, in it for the money and so will not feel bad dumping on your head they are not your saviours and will burn you if given the chance - keep this in mind.
- Wallet tracking should be seen as 1 of many tools you use in your trading it should not be your main trading strategy, rather another indicator of what coins may do good and to confirm personal bias.

I hope you enjoyed this thread and you walk away more informed! I poured a lot of time into this so any support is very much appreciated
