Arkham Intelligence has unveiled a new feature called ‘First Funders’ that allows users to see the original funding source for each address, applicable to all chains on which it has activity. This addition aims to enhance wallet analysis capabilities by providing insights into potentially related wallets, bridging techniques, and exchange usage, according to arkhamintelligence.com.

Enhancing Blockchain Analysis

The ‘First Funders’ feature is designed to provide a comprehensive view of the funding sources for Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) Non-Contract Accounts on the Arkham platform. By identifying the original funding source, users can gain a deeper understanding of the relationships between different wallets and the methods used for transferring assets across chains.

Practical Applications

This new functionality is expected to be particularly useful for researchers, analysts, and security professionals who require detailed insights into blockchain transactions. The feature can help identify suspicious activities, trace the origins of funds, and understand the flow of assets across different chains. Users can access these links in the ‘Tags’ section of an address page.

Demo with Vitalik’s Address

To illustrate the utility of the ‘First Funders’ feature, Arkham Intelligence has provided a demo using the address of Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin. Users can explore this feature by visiting the address page on the Arkham platform.

Arkham Intelligence continues to innovate in the field of blockchain analysis, providing tools that offer deeper insights into the complex world of cryptocurrency transactions.
