Do you have the ability to check volumes going from private wallets to exchanges and vice versa? #5

In a "whale alert" sort of way. To know over time how much BTC or USDT moved from private wallets to e.g. Binance or vice versa?

Also would be tremendously interesting to see an indication of how old the wallet addresses are in those statistics. So for example if whales from 6 years ago are moving their btc to exchanges, or if new wallets are doing it.

It would be possible to have a whale watcher functionality, yes, but it would get complicated :-) The question would be for which chain and starting from which amount. And it is possible to identify exchange wallets and monitor them to tell if huge amounts are starting to get sold etc.

But it's a huge effort to build it and it's maybe better suited to use it's own bot for only this functionality. Something like WhaleAlert https://t.me/whale_alert_io

Right now i don't see that being added to OpenCryptoBut but maybe in the future.

That's fair. If I have nothing better to do maybe I'll look into it. Seems all I need is what you already do + knowing the wallets of the popular exchanges, and a database and some nice chart ui. I'd only do it for BTC and maybe USDT, since everything else just follows bitcoin's dominance.

There is also glassnode in addition to whale alert. But it's really not worth their monthly fee. This kind of info should be public.

Sounds good :) I plan to rework the bot at some point. I use my use Telegram bot "framework" that i've build to make it simpler and faster to build bots and the state of the framework that i've used with this bot just isn't the newest version so i really need to update it at some point if i want to maintain this bot in future.

When i do that i will also think about adding some kind of WhaleAlert functionality. If you come up with something then let me know.
