Frequently Asked Questions
What is CoinLobster?
CoinLobster is a real-time crypto whale tracking platform. It shows you what big players (whales) are buying and selling across 15 exchanges and on-chain DEXs — so you can see market-moving trades before prices adjust.
What is a whale in crypto?
A "whale" is someone who trades very large amounts — usually $100,000 or more in a single trade. When whales buy or sell, they can move prices. CoinLobster tracks these big trades in real-time so you can see what they're doing.
How does CoinLobster help me make money?
CoinLobster shows you real-time signals: which coins big players are buying, where prices differ between platforms (so you can buy cheaper), and when the market is about to make a big move. Pro users get these signals live — before prices adjust.
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
Free gives you BTC, ETH and a rotating daily coin live in the terminal, the whale feed for every coin on a 15-minute delay, on-chain DEX whales above $250K, and 1 custom alert. Pro ($9/month) removes the delay and limits: all ~250 coins in real-time, 20 custom alerts (CEX and on-chain), the full on-chain feed down to $25K swaps, trading signals and sound notifications.
Does CoinLobster track prediction markets?
Not anymore — prediction market intelligence (Polymarket and Kalshi whale bets, price gaps, and top traders) now lives at our sister site PredTerminal: predterminal.com. CoinLobster focuses entirely on crypto.
How many coins does CoinLobster track?
CoinLobster tracks the top ~250 coins across 15 exchanges including Binance, Bybit, OKX, Coinbase, and more. Free users get BTC, ETH and a rotating daily coin live, plus the full whale feed for every coin on a 15-minute delay. Pro users get everything in real-time.
What is the on-chain whale feed?
Beyond exchange trades, CoinLobster watches large DEX swaps directly on-chain — Uniswap pools on Ethereum, Base, and Arbitrum — with repeat-whale tagging that flags wallets that keep coming back. Free users see swaps above $250K and the top-5 tokens per chain. Pro users see swaps from $25K on Base/Arbitrum ($100K on Ethereum) plus the full top-50 token board. Find it at coinlobster.com/crypto-whales?source=onchain.
Does CoinLobster have an API?
Yes. CoinLobster offers a REST API with 16 endpoints for crypto market data, whale trades, news, DeFi analytics, and AI signals. See the documentation at coinlobster.com/developers, or the OpenAPI spec at coinlobster.com/openapi.json.
