What are the ways to track the wallet address of an encrypted KOL?

Reprinted from panewslab
02/07/2025·17DBecause KOLs have influence, some of their behaviors will have a certain impact on the project. Under normal circumstances, a project is usually bought by KOLs by themselves, then shared in the community, and finally shared on public channels such as Twitter. If we have a KOL address, we can know what he bought, when to increase his position, and when to stop profit and loss.
This article shares some ways to find KOL addresses and how to use them.
1. Use gmgn
gmgn is a comprehensive platform with functions such as transactions, data analysis, monitoring, etc. The boss is Ji Ge @haze0x. Website: https://gmgn.ai/?ref=sxsy7oyJ
On gmgn, users can bind their Twitter account and address. We can use this function to find the address of KOL.
For example, if we want to know what the address of 0xsun is, we can enter "0xsun" in the search box, and the address of 0xsun will appear in the bottom search result, as shown in the figure
Click the address in the search results and we can see the detailed information of the 0xsun address, as shown in the figure. We can see his Twitter followers, and click to jump to Twitter; we can see his winning rate; we can see his 7-day profit and loss situation, and the 7-day profit is US$2.3 million.
In this way, when we want to know the address of a certain KOL, we can search on gmgn to see if it has been bound to the address. If so, we can find it.
2. Use chain.fm
chain.fm is an on-chain monitoring platform. Users upload a lot of smart money addresses, including many KOL addresses. The boss is @zen913.
A few years ago, chain.fm launched the search function, which supports searching with keywords, so we can use this function to find the address of KOLs.
This method was mentioned in my tweet https://x.com/0x_zibu/status/1882345639218118884
There are two ways to find a KOL address using chain.fm:
1. Directly search for the specific KOL name
Let's continue to take 0xsun as an example. Enter "0xsun" in the input box and you can see several addresses appear, as shown in the figure
The first address in the search results is included in 426 channels, and it is basically the most likely that it is the address of 0xsun. We can also go to gmgn to verify it to see if 0xsun himself has authenticated this address.
2. Search with the keyword "KOL"
We can also enter the keyword "KOL" to find all relevant information on chain.fm, as shown in the figure
When we enter "KOL", we will find all the relevant channels. The channels are all KOL addresses organized by the channel owner. We just need to verify the authenticity.
Under the wallet option, use the keyword "KOL" to find the address with this information, as shown in the figure
The address found through chain.fm is based on the upload of the channel owner. It cannot be guaranteed to be 100% true. We need to cross-verify on gmgn , Twitter or other channels.
3. Analysis of clues based on Twitter
Both of the above methods are relatively simple, and you can find them as long as you are willing to take the time to sort them out. However, some KOLs do not actively disclose their addresses, so in this case, they have to find them through other methods.
1. Clearly posting
Some KOLs will post orders in tweets, and the pictures contain specific transaction information, such as trading time, buying or selling, trading amount and the amount of coins. It is particularly easy to find when posting orders, because there is specific transaction information, we only need to filter based on this information.
We recommend using Eagle ( https://dexscreener.com/ ) to filter orders. We can make detailed screening based on the transaction time, transaction type (buy or sell), transaction amount, and transaction amount, as shown in the figure.
Eagle is the most manual filtering function among the tools I have used. Unlike other tools, the filtering function is purely a decoration, I guess I don’t use it myself.
However, the disadvantage of Eagle is that transactions such as okx that use aggregation routing cannot be found. This way, you can only search on the okx web page ( https://www.okx.com/zh-hans/web3 ).
2. Blurry information
Sometimes KOLs do not directly post orders on Twitter, and may mention the market value of a certain currency. This situation has limited information. You can only filter out the approximate range based on a tweet. You may need to combine multiple tweets to filter out the specific address.
For example, Cycling Niu Niu posted a tweet yesterday about Burder’s address, as shown in the picture. How do we find this address?
Let's collect all the valid information first:
(1) Tweet time is 2.5 9:53
(2) According to the tweet, Burder first buys $Ncat and $Noland, and then buys $Calicoin
(3) The information given by the pictures in the tweet is rich, as shown in the picture. You can know:
a. The number of holdings of $Calicoin is 4M
b. The number of holdings of $Noland is 37.6M
c. $Ncat's holdings are 30M, but only account for 57% of the holdings
d. When taking the screenshot, their position was only 2 minutes.
(4) The opening time of $Calicoin is 2.5 8:23
From the above information, we can know that Burder's trading time is from 8:23 to 9:53, combined with the holding time of the picture for 2 minutes, and the trading time may be at the latest of 9:51. In the tweet, Burder got up late, and the trading time will be at the earliest after the opening period. There will be no detailed information on how long it takes. The screening can only start at 8:23.
With the above information, we can do this:
a. Write a script to get transaction data
Take out all the buying transactions of the three coins between 8:23 and 9:53, and see which address is to buy these three coins at the same time in this range, and the order and quantity are in line with the information collected above. match.
b. Use dune ( https://dune.com/ ) to query
Compared to writing scripts to get transaction data by yourself, the data on dune is ready-made. At this time, you can use the query statement that helps write dune to Ai, filter out the address and then manually verify it.
4. Analyze the indexes such as address trading style and winning rate
After finding the address of KOL, we need to analyze this address in detail. It depends on his trading style, whether he likes to play in the inner market, external market, or external market, or external market, whether he likes to chase highs or likes to ambush; how to do the stop-profit and stop-loss; how to win rate; how to do the overall profit and loss situation.
GMGN and debot are available on platforms that are currently better at analyzing addresses.
1.gmgn
gmgn ( https://gmgn.ai/?ref=sxsy7oyJ ) has done a lot of data analysis and has various indicators.
For example, at the address of 0xsun, we can see its profit and loss, winning rate, and total profit and loss of 1, 7 and 30 days. You can see the 30-day trading currency in the recent profit and loss. You can sort it according to various indicators. Clicking on a certain currency can also see detailed transaction records. As shown
2. debot
debot ( https://debot.ai?inviteCode=175623 ) implements the same function as gmgn . The two are somewhat different in algorithms and have some differences in the data presented. The data of 0xsun address is shown in the figure, which can be compared with gmgn .
As for which is better, gmgn or debot , my suggestion is to use both together and refer to each other to prevent the data of a single tool from missing or errors affecting the analysis.
5. Monitoring
After finding out the address of the KOL and performing data analysis, we need to mark and classify each address, and then use tools to monitor these addresses, so that when they have transactions, we can know as soon as possible, which can be earlier than the community and Twitter.
For monitoring, it is highly recommended to debot ( https://debot.ai?inviteCode=175623 ). debot is the most functional and finest-grained product used in the monitoring industry. Its AI signal is also very strong and the transaction is also very silky. slip.
Debot 's wallet monitoring is divided into two types: wallet behavior monitoring and wallet grouping behavior monitoring, as shown in the figure
1. Wallet behavior monitoring
This monitoring is a normal monitoring that all tools have, but the monitoring of other tools is that all addresses are pushed to a tg group. The advantage of debot is that addresses can be grouped and then pushed to different tg groups according to the grouping situation, such as picture.
In this way, different tg groups can be established according to the marking situation and pushed, such as internal disk players, external disk second-level players, key attention addresses, etc. Tools that can rank monitoring information are good tools. When I used abat to monitor before, in order to achieve the effect of group push, I would first mark the address, and then do secondary development after the tg group received the monitoring message, and do secondary distribution based on the marking. Now that you have debot , you don’t need to do secondary development anymore.
2. Monitoring of wallet grouping behavior
If we monitor a lot of addresses, there is a problem that cannot be avoided: too many messages are pushed. If there are too many messages, people will want to make a mistake if they can't handle them, which will lose the meaning of surveillance. For this problem, my previous strategy was to do secondary development of the pushed messages, and set to push them when the number of different addresses reaches a certain number within a certain period of time. For example, if there are 5 different addresses to buy within 30 minutes, then Push. I have used this strategy for about a year and the effect is very good, reducing a lot of news, and not missing out on popular coins.
Debot 's wallet grouping behavior monitoring just implements my strategy, and it is done more finely and has a finer granularity of indicators, as shown in the figure. We can monitor based on buying and selling, and can set monitoring time period, transaction amount, notification frequency, and market value. It can fully meet various monitoring needs, and this feature is highly recommended.
Six, Hundred-digit KOL address file
According to the above method, I have sorted out the addresses of nearly 100 KOLs, and the content is as shown in the picture.
You can analyze and mark each address according to the analysis method in Part 4, and find addresses that meet their habits for monitoring.

7. Summary
The above article introduces the method of finding KOL addresses, and also explains how to analyze and monitor the address. For KOL addresses not included in the file, you can use the above method to search. In addition, KOL's external address is only one of the addresses they use. Everyone has multiple addresses. You can find their associated addresses based on the above address. If you collect more address databases, it will be very rich.
The style of each KOL is different. Some KOLs can also pass orders. Everyone cannot believe in the address of the KOL, but still choose the one that suits you.
