The wallet lookup guide

How to look up a wallet address

Curious about a whale’s wallet, a protocol treasury or your own tokens? ThatWhale searches public EVM addresses so you can explore their visible holdings and recent movements. All you need is the address.

1. Paste a public address

Copy the full address from your wallet’s receive screen, a blockchain explorer or a protocol’s official documentation. An EVM address starts with 0x, followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Paste it into the search box and select Inspect whale.

You do not need to connect a wallet, sign a message or create an account. Never enter a seed phrase or private key. No address handy? Open one of the public examples on the home page.

2. Read the tokens and network coverage

The report shows loaded spot tokens, their balances and their values when prices are available. The chart shows how those priced holdings contribute to the visible token value. Use the network filter to focus on a chain such as Base or Ethereum.

One EVM address can hold tokens on multiple networks. ThatWhale looks across supported networks; you do not need a different search for each one. Missing prices are not zero, and the visible total is not a person’s complete wealth.

3. Explore recent wallet activity

The movements section lists the recent activity available in the report. Open a movement’s explorer link to inspect its transaction on the corresponding network. A transfer into a wallet is not necessarily a purchase, and a transfer out is not necessarily a sale.

4. Request a longer view when you need it

Choose 24 hours, the last 30 days or the last year, then select Load analysis. When the underlying data is available, you can explore realized gains, current unrealized gains and tokens bought during that period.

Realized gains concern assets sold during the period. Unrealized gains describe positions still held at valuation. Deposits alone are not profit. Read the coverage notes: missing history, pricing or cost basis can make the analysis incomplete or unavailable.

Looking for a whale?

Start with an address you already know or explore the featured public entities. ThatWhale is a wallet and whale explorer, not a leaderboard of the richest people. A protocol treasury can hold assets for many users, and one person can use many addresses.

Which networks can I explore?

The configured networks are Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, BNB Chain, HyperEVM, Robinhood Chain. Availability depends on the data provider, and coverage may be partial. HyperEVM coverage does not include HyperCore balances or perpetuals. Robinhood Chain refers to public onchain addresses, not private brokerage accounts.

NFTs, complete DeFi positions, Bitcoin and Solana are outside this view.Read about coverage and methodology

Can I find an address by a name?

Search currently requires the full EVM address. Names, ENS domains and discovering someone’s wallet identity are not supported.

Why is a result missing or limited?

A report can be partial because a network, token price or activity could not be loaded. Lookups also have usage limits. If a limit is reached, follow the retry time shown in the message. Recent reports may be reused from cache; their original fetched time stays visible.
