This page describes common ChainLens workflows in the web app.

​
Inspect a live pair

1

Choose the chain

Select Solana, Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, or BNB Chain.
2

Enter the pool address

Paste a pool address into the pair input. On supported paths, a token address can resolve to the highest-liquidity pool on the selected chain.
3

Read the summary cards

Start with buy volume, sell volume, LP added, LP removed, unique wallets, and largest event. These summarize the selected window.
4

Scan the live tape

Review swaps and liquidity events in chronological order. Sort by time, USD value, or native value when you need a different view.

​
Focus on whales

ChainLens accents events at or above $50,000 in USD value. To focus on large moves:
  1. Set Min USD to $10K, $100K, or a custom value.
  2. Sort by USD.
  3. Review highlighted rows in the tape.
  4. Open the transaction link when a real provider returned an explorer-compatible transaction hash.

​
Compare buyers and sellers

Use the Top Buyers and Top Sellers cards to see which wallets dominate the selected window.
  • Top Buyers are ranked by total buy volume.
  • Top Sellers are ranked by total sell volume.
  • Each row shows wallet identity when known, USD total, event count, and share.
Click a leaderboard row to filter the event tape to that wallet. Click it again, or clear the wallet filter, to return to the full pair view.

​
Analyze liquidity providers

Use the Top LP card when you want to understand who is adding or removing liquidity. Top LP rows show:
  • Total liquidity added
  • Total liquidity removed
  • Net liquidity
  • Event count
  • Share bar
This helps distinguish active liquidity providers from wallets that only swap.

​
Use custom ranges

Custom ranges are useful when you want to inspect activity around a launch, announcement, or volatility event.
1

Select custom timeframe

Choose the custom range option instead of a preset.
2

Set from and to

Pick the exact start and end date/time. ChainLens supports second-level precision.
3

Keep the range within 7 days

The API rejects windows longer than 7 days.
Auto-refresh is disabled for custom ranges because the selected window is fixed.

​
Share an investigation view

The web app syncs state to URL query parameters. After you select a chain, pair, timeframe, filters, sort order, and optional wallet, copy the URL and share it with another user. The shared URL can include:
For custom ranges, URLs include from and to epoch seconds.

​
Diagnose provider mode

The provider badge tells you where events came from: If you see synthetic data when you expect real events, check provider keys, RPC health, the pool address, and the selected chain.
