Scout

Your wallets. The moves that matter. Build a private watchlist of confirmed Solana token movements, inspect shared moves, and keep a daily digest.

Scout is a private monitoring workspace inside Bots. Add a public Solana wallet and give it a private label. Scout starts watching from that moment and gathers confirmed token movements from transactions that reference that address, with a transaction link for each observation. It does not index all of the wallet’s token accounts: incoming transfers to an existing token account can be absent. Native SOL-only movements are not included.

A fresh start

A new watch starts now. Scout does not backfill wallet history, calculate the source trader's PnL, sign transactions, or place trades.

Start watching

  1. 1

    Sign in

    Use your normal Bots account. Your watchlist and labels belong to that account. If you start typing before signing in, this tab can keep your draft for 10 minutes; review and submit it after you return.

  2. 2

    Add the exact wallet

    Paste a full public Solana wallet address and, optionally, a label of up to 40 characters. Scout watches that address only. A username, similar name or another wallet does not establish the same identity.

  3. 3

    Check the first sync

    A watch can be awaiting its first sync, watching, catching up, delayed, or at a read limit. The wallet's sync time and pending count explain how current its observations are.

  4. 4

    Inspect the evidence

    Filter recent movements by wallet or direction. Expand a row for the exact quantity, token mint, source wallet and Solscan transaction. Token amounts are quantities, not dollar valuations.

The server verifies the linked wallet and official token balance when adding a watch. Ten is the total allowance, not ten extra slots. If the holding cannot be verified, Scout shows that state and uses the allowance it can confirm. No token holding is needed for the three free watches.

Holder allowance is rechecked periodically and expires after fifteen minutes without renewed proof. Extra saved watches pause when the holding cannot be verified; the oldest three retain included-slot priority. Accounts idle for seven days stop occupying monitoring capacity until they return. Free accounts share twelve source places; holder accounts can use the pilot’s twenty-source pool, subject to capacity. Refresh retries admission for paused saved watches. Remove a watch to free a slot. Adding or resuming a paused wallet starts a new coverage window from that point; it does not restore coverage for the interval when it was removed. Private labels help you recognize addresses and do not publish an identity claim.

Movements and shared moves

An incoming or outgoing token balance change can be a transfer, airdrop or other activity. Scout labels a buy or sell only when its observer recognizes a supported swap. Unsupported or ambiguous activity is not a verified trade, and a balance change alone is not a trading recommendation.

Shared moves group the same token mint moving in the same direction across at least two distinct watched wallets during the last 60 minutes. Incoming and outgoing refer to token direction; shared incoming movements are not automatically buys and do not prove coordination.

The recent feed contains up to 100 observations. Mark as read clears the current unread indicator. Scout refreshes while the page is visible, but a page refresh is separate from each source wallet's background synchronization.

Your daily digest and coverage

The last-24-hours digest counts available observations by their on-chain block time: total movements, incoming and outgoing rows, active watched wallets and distinct token mints. It is a bounded activity summary, not a complete portfolio or performance report. Scanned window current means that available wallet-referencing transactions have been processed; it does not establish complete wallet coverage. Watches added or resumed within the last 24 hours still have a partial window.

Read the coverage state

Pending transactions, delayed sources, read limits and recorded gaps can leave movements out. Scout marks the digest as partial when coverage is incomplete. A zero means no matching observations in the available data, not proof that a wallet did nothing. After a coverage gap, monitoring may restart from a new forward anchor; missing activity is not silently filled.

Private RSS

RSS is off until you choose Create private RSS link. Scout reveals the new URL once; copy it into a reader you trust. The URL grants read-only access to your Scout feed, including wallet addresses and labels. Anyone who has it can read that feed without signing in.

Treat the URL as private. The feed URL may appear in hosting request logs; use a reader you trust. Rotating it creates a new link and invalidates the old one. Revoke access disables RSS. Scout cannot retrieve the previous URL for you; if you lose it, rotate. Revoking cannot erase content already downloaded by a reader or copied by someone else.

From observation to a paper strategy

Paper follow opens the exact wallet in Trading Lab. You review the source, choose your own limits, and explicitly create a separate paper strategy. Adding a Scout watch does not create a strategy. Trading Lab's supported swap coverage and paper execution rules still apply; an observed Scout movement does not promise an executable trade.
