Understanding​​​​the growth of NFTs and blockchain ecosystems

NFT market

The NFT market has been covered extensively over the past two years, but getting an accurate understanding of its condition requires more than just analyzing trading volume and floor prices. To get a holistic view of the market, you need to consider other key data points in your analysis, all of which can be found on Nansen’s NFT Trends Dashboard.

Does the data filter out trade activity? Number of active wallets Number of sales Percentage of sales that have bids accepted Number of new buyers and returning buyers Number of active projects across

Blockchain ecosystems

On-chain statistics are essential to understand the types of activities on various blockchain ecosystems and their overall adoption and growth. Nansen’s Chain Paradise contains an overview of key statistics of EVM chains supported on the platform.

Crypto and DeFi portfolio tracking

As the web3 space becomes increasingly multi-chain and DeFi continues to gain popularity, portfolio tracking has become more complex. To track token holdings, DeFi positions and transactions across multiple chains and wallets, users often need to use multiple platforms and have many tabs open.

However, Nansen Wallet allows you to link multiple wallets together and track holdings and DeFi positions across 47 chains and over 400 protocols. The 47 chains include but are not limited to Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Polygon, BNB Chain, Bitcoin, Cosmos and Harmony. This makes it easy to monitor the crypto portfolio of any address, not just your own.

In addition to tracking holdings and strike positions, you can also view transactions on multiple chains across all wallets in the bundle on the transactions tab. For the transaction tab, we have support for 11 chains and are working to bring it on par with the overall product.

List of chains supported in the transaction tab: Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Fantom, Arbitrum, Aurora, Moonbeam, Cronos, Moonriver, Optimism.
