Who is early on Ethereum, what they are buying and where the ETH is moving.

The smart-money ranking is built backwards from outcomes. For every token that later grew into a widely traded asset, the ledger records which wallets bought before the growth phase and which bought after it. A wallet's earliness is averaged across the tokens it entered before they became popular, so one lucky early buy makes no ranking; the pattern has to repeat.
Because the measurement starts from tokens that already resolved, it says nothing about tokens that have not. A high rank describes past behavior that repeated across several tokens — the page deliberately writes it that way rather than promising foresight, because no ledger reading can deliver that.
For each ranked wallet the tab shows what it accumulated or distributed over the window you pick, as one net amount per token. Netting matters: a wallet that bought 400 units and sold 350 in the same week changed its position by 50, and presenting the two legs separately would make it look far busier than it was.
A single net figure also hides structure. Some wallets accumulate in small steady clips; others move once, in size. The series distinguishes persistent accumulation from a one-off transfer by how the net amount behaves across consecutive windows — read several windows together instead of reacting to a single one.
Nothing here reports a wallet's balance as wealth. Units can pass through a wallet within a day; what the net amount records is the change in position over the window you chose, not the scale of the wallet itself. A small wallet cycling large volume through itself is a different animal from a large wallet sitting still, and in a single net figure they can look identical. One more reason the windows exist: read the series, note where the net amount stays far from zero across consecutive windows, and treat isolated spikes as what they usually are — churn. Position change, not volume, is the quantity the page is honest about.
The ETH and USDT series count transfers into and out of wallets that belong to trading venues, identified from the addresses those venues publish. An inflow makes ETH available on a venue; an outflow withdraws it. Neither event is itself a purchase, which is why the tab reports flows and leaves interpretation to the reader.
Any wallet can be opened as a graph: its counterparties, the direction and size of each edge, and — where the evidence supports it — the name of a known entity behind an address. Naming is deliberately conservative: an address gets a label when disclosure or strong reuse evidence supports it, and stays a plain address otherwise, because a wrong label poisons every reading built on it.
Open it in DeepGyre →By how early it bought tokens that later became popular, measured from Ethereum transfers — not by its profit, which the chain does not record.
No. A member must have signed a transaction itself.
Repetition. The wallet entered several tokens before those tokens grew into liquid assets, and the entries are measured on-chain rather than claimed. The rank reflects that measured record across the tokens resolved so far.
Yes. The ranking is recomputed as more tokens resolve and as wallets trade. A wallet that stopped trading early keeps its historical record, but its relative position moves as the cohort around it evolves.
Because labels require evidence — a public disclosure tying an address to an owner, or reuse patterns strong enough to rule out coincidence. Without it the graph shows a plain address, by design.
