Solana Whale Alert: Following the Big Fish

When whales move, markets react. A 10,000 SOL transfer to an exchange? Might be selling pressure coming. Large accumulation in a wallet? Someone knows something.

Most whale tracking services cost money. Monthly subscriptions. Enterprise pricing. What if you could run your own?

The Architecture

Solana Whale Alert monitors the chain for large transactions. When someone moves significant value, alerts fire to Discord or Telegram. Real-time. Customizable thresholds.

The stack is intentionally simple:

• Python for transaction processing
• Docker for deployment anywhere
• Webhooks for Discord/Telegram integration
• RPC nodes for chain data

No database. No complex infrastructure. Just stream processing and notifications.

Why Build This

On-chain intelligence shouldnt require enterprise budgets. Individual traders, small funds, curious developers — everyone benefits from knowing when big money moves.

The open-source approach means you control your data. No third party sees your alert configurations. No subscription that might disappear.

Affordable Intelligence

Run it on a cheap VPS. Five dollars a month covers hosting. RPC costs scale with usage — free tiers work for basic monitoring.

Configure thresholds for your strategy. Track specific wallets. Filter by token type. The alerts you get are the alerts you define.
