Last updated
Our on-chain analysis site introduces a "Block Anomaly Monitor" feature in the user guide, designed to highlight and monitor significant cryptocurrency transfers across the blockchain. This tool is essential for identifying large-scale movements of digital assets, which can indicate market trends, whale activities, or pivotal events in the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Users can leverage this feature to track real-time updates on substantial transfers, including the amounts, involved wallets, and the timestamp of each transaction. This capability not only aids in understanding the immediate impact of these transfers on the market but also assists in predicting potential future movements. It's an invaluable resource for investors, traders, and analysts seeking to make informed decisions based on significant transfer activities.
Block Anomaly Monitor:
In this interface, confirmed blocks will display transactions that are outside the norm (for example, transfers with a large amount of BTC, transfers generating high CDD values) or transactions that match predefined parameters (such as transfers entering or exiting exchange, ETF, and similar designated wallets).
If there are no abnormal or parameter-matching transactions in a block, it is assumed based on prior experience that no significant effect will occur. Therefore, such blocks will not be displayed in this interface.
The fields and their descriptions in this block are as follows:
• Height: The block number • Date/Time: The date and time the block was confirmed • TX Count: The number of transactions in the block • CDD Value: The CDD value generated by the transfer of BTC within the block (see CDD for more information) • Volume: The amount of BTC transferred in the block (in units) • Reason: A list of detected anomalies within the transfers
This interface is interactive, allowing you to click on the row of the block you wish to explore in more detail, which will bring up the detailed view of that block.
As you can see in the image, at the top, there is a field where you can enter any block number to access the details of the block you are interested in. Just below, you can see a summary of the transactions that occurred within that block. In this summary, you can view the BTC entering and exiting wallets classified as Miners, Spot or Derivative Exchanges, ETFs, and similar categories. The value on the left side of each wallet class shows the amount of BTC entering that class, while the value on the right side shows the amount of BTC exiting.
Just below that, there is a summary that shows when the BTC moved within the block was last transferred. You can see how old the transferred BTC is, categorized as: within the last 1 day, 1-7 days, 7-30 days, 1-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-12 months, 12-18 months, and beyond.
At the bottom of the screen, there is a list of transactions within the block that are considered anomalies—either outside the norm or matching the predefined parameters.
Like the previous screen, this one is also interactive, allowing you to click on any transaction in the list to access the detailed view of that transaction.
On this screen, you can see the details of the transfers that took place within the selected transaction, including which wallet addresses sent how much BTC to which other wallet addresses. An important point to note here is that you can also see the labels showing wallet owners, detected by CDDStamp’s own algorithms.
This screen is interactive as well, allowing you to click on any wallet address to access the detailed view of that wallet in the same manner as shown below.
