Labels & Watchlists 101

What Are Custom Labels?

Custom Labels let you assign personalized tags to wallets across the Nansen platform. Imagine tracking an influencer’s wallet or naming a treasury wallet for easy reference. Instead of trying to remember long alphanumeric wallet addresses, you can simply label them on Nansen for quick identification.

These labels appear across all of Nansen’s dashboards, ensuring seamless tracking of wallet activity and transactions. This makes it easier to monitor trends, validate strategies, or analyze token movements in real time.

Creating Custom Labels

Here’s how to get started with Custom Labels:

1. Add a Label - Select a wallet and click the ‘Manage Labels’ button

2. Change Name or Add New - Assign a unique name or you can just add additional labels you’d like to give a given wallet.

3. Track Activity - Your label will now appear across all dashboards, making it easier to follow their activity and trends.
