# Wallet event-based

The Wallet Event Trigger is a powerful tool that allows users to monitor real-time activity on a specific wallet address across a chosen blockchain. Whether tracking native cryptocurrency transfers, token-specific transactions, or all activity associated with a wallet, this trigger provides a seamless way to stay informed and react automatically.

### Why Monitor Wallet Activity?

Monitoring wallet activity is essential for a variety of use cases, including:

* Transaction Tracking: Stay updated on all incoming and outgoing transfers, ensuring complete visibility of wallet transactions.
* Security Monitoring: Detect suspicious activity, such as unauthorized transactions or unusual wallet behavior, and act swiftly.
* Operational Oversight: Automate workflows based on wallet activity, such as rebalancing funds, topping up balances, or triggering alerts for specific events.
* Analytics and Reporting: Collect detailed transaction data for compliance, reporting, or strategic decision-making.

### How to Set Up a Wallet Event Trigger

1. Choose the Wallet: Enter the wallet address you wish to monitor. This could be your own operational wallet, a partner’s wallet, or even a publicly-known wallet for analysis.
2. Select the Blockchain: Pick the blockchain network where the wallet resides, such as Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, or Polygon.
3. Define the Activity Category:
   1. Native Currency Activity: Focus on transactions involving the chain’s native cryptocurrency (e.g., ETH on Ethereum, MATIC on Polygon).
   2. Token Activity: Monitor transactions involving ERC-20 or other tokens interacting with the wallet.
   3. All Activity: Capture all wallet interactions, including smart contract executions, transfers, and other blockchain events.

### Filtering Wallet Activity

Once the trigger is set, users can fine-tune the workflow by applying filters to narrow down the specific activity of interest. The following parameters are available for filtering:

* Category of Event: Distinguish between transfers, contract executions, or other blockchain-specific activities.
* Value: Set thresholds to monitor only transactions above or below a certain amount. For example, track token transfers exceeding $10,000.
* Contract: Filter events associated with specific smart contracts interacting with the wallet.
* Sender/Receiver: Focus on transactions sent from or received by particular wallet addresses.
* Hash: Include or exclude specific transactions using their unique transaction hash.
* Block Number: Narrow activity to specific blocks for detailed analysis.

### Use Case Examples

1. Operational Wallet Management: Monitor your operational wallet for low balance thresholds. When the balance drops below a preset value, trigger an automated workflow to top it up using a pre-connected source wallet.
2. Security Alerts: Set up alerts for any unauthorized token transfer from your wallet. Filter by sender/receiver addresses to exclude known trusted interactions.
3. Analytics and Compliance: Record all activity from a high-profile wallet for regulatory compliance or to gain market insights. Use filters to track only significant transactions or interactions with specific contracts.
4. Market Monitoring: Monitor large inflows or outflows of tokens in high-profile wallets to detect market movements and act proactively.
