These tools can be found on platforms for the crypto analysis, which provide a solid foundation, facilitate forecasting, and enable more confident trading decisions. Let's take a closer look at the most popular options.
Glassnode
Glassnode's analytical platform empowers users to customize a dashboard that offers visual representations of data extracted from specific blockchain queries. For example, one could validate the precise number of ETH tokens withdrawn from staking or the quantity of active addresses on UniSwap. Alternatively, users can delve into the prefabricated information panels that proffer insights on new addresses and transactions, the variation of BTC block sizes, circulating cryptocurrency supply at different points in time, and beyond.

The platform further provides a broad array of futures charts for ETH and BTC, enabling users to predict the future value of the main drivers of the cryptocurrency market. With the use of these tools, users can access information like credit leverage parameters, the number of long and short positions, and the percentage payout for transactions.
Glassnode publishes detailed cryptocurrency reports and releases its own blockchain network analysis every week, enabling users to assess the market situation. The website also provides numerous other charts for market analysis, such as network activity, the number of addresses based on different criteria, and investor sentiment.
Glassnode additionally provides the added feature of linking notifications to a broad spectrum of market conditions. Nevertheless, its primary limitation is the narrow array of assets accessible for evaluation.
