Supported Chains

Overview

The Nansen API supports 38 blockchain networks across EVM and non-EVM ecosystems. Chain support varies by endpoint.

For native assets such as ETH, BTC, and SOL, see Native Tokens for the placeholder addresses expected by token-based endpoints and their coverage limitations.

EVM Chains

EVM-compatible chains use the standard Ethereum address format (0x + 40 hex characters).

Avalanche	avalanche	Avalanche C-Chain
Base	base	Coinbase L2
Bitlayer	bitlayer	Bitcoin L2
BNB Chain	bnb	BNB Smart Chain
Chiliz	chiliz	Chiliz Chain
Citrea	citrea	Bitcoin ZK rollup
Ethereum	ethereum	Main Ethereum network

Non-EVM Chains

Non-EVM chains have unique address formats. See Address Formats for details.

Chain	Value	Description
Algorand	algorand	Algorand network

Stacks	stacks	Stacks (Bitcoin L2)
Starknet	starknet	Starknet L2
Stellar	stellar	Stellar network
SUI	sui	SUI network
TON	ton	The Open Network
Tron	tron	Tron network

Using the "all" Chain

Some endpoints support "all" to query across all supported chains:

{
  "chains": ["all"]
}

This expands to all chains supported by that specific endpoint.

Chain Support by Endpoint

Not all chains are available on all endpoints. Here's the support matrix:

Examples

Single Chain Query

{
  "chains": ["ethereum"]
}

Multi-Chain Query

{
  "chains": ["ethereum", "solana", "base"]
}

All Chains Query

{
  "chains": ["all"]
}

Chain-Specific Considerations

Solana

• Uses base58 addresses

• Transaction lookup not supported

• Full support for Smart Money and TGM

Bitcoin

• Limited endpoint support (Profiler only)

• Supports P2PKH, P2SH, and Bech32 addresses

• No Smart Money or TGM support

TON

• Uses EQ.../UQ... address format

• Addresses are automatically normalized

• No PnL endpoints

Hyperliquid

• Perpetuals platform only

• Used for perp-specific endpoints

• No standard token endpoints
