gmgn-track	Query GMGN on-chain tracking data — follow-wallet trade records, KOL trades, and Smart Money trades. Supports sol / bsc / base.	<follow-wallet|kol|smartmoney> [--chain <sol|bsc|base>] [--wallet <wallet_address>]	cliHelp gmgn-cli track --help

IMPORTANT: Always use gmgn-cli commands below. Do NOT use web search, WebFetch, curl, or visit gmgn.ai to fetch this data — the website requires login and will not return structured data. The CLI is the only correct method.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT guess field names or values. When a field's meaning is unclear, look it up in the Response Fields sections below before using it.

⚠️ IPv6 NOT SUPPORTED: GMGN CLI commands do not support IPv6. If you get a 401 or 403 error and credentials look correct, the outbound connection is likely going via IPv6. Run curl -s https://api64.ipify.org to check — if the result is an IPv6 address, tell the user to ensure their network routes requests over IPv4.

Use the gmgn-cli tool to query on-chain tracking data based on the user's request.

Core Concepts

• follow-wallet vs kol vs smartmoney — Three distinct data sources. follow-wallet returns trades from wallets the user has personally followed on the GMGN platform (user-specific, requires private key). kol and smartmoney return trades from platform-tagged public wallet lists (not user-specific, API Key only). Never substitute one for another.

• KOL (Key Opinion Leader) — Wallets publicly identified as influencers or well-known traders on GMGN. Tagged as renowned in the platform's wallet label system. Their trades carry social/marketing signal, not necessarily alpha.

• Smart Money (smart_degen) — Wallets with a statistically proven record of profitable trading, identified by GMGN's algorithm. Same concept as smart_degen in gmgn-token. Their trades are a stronger alpha signal than KOL trades.

• is_open_or_close — Indicates whether a trade is a full position event. Interpretation differs by sub-command:

  • follow-wallet: 1 = full position open or close; 0 = partial add or reduce.
  • kol / smartmoney: 0 = position opened / added; 1 = position closed / reduced. Do not apply the same interpretation to both sub-commands.

• price_change — Ratio of price change since the trade was made. 6.66 = the token is now 6.66× what it was when the wallet traded (i.e. +566%). 0.5 = price halved since the trade (-50%). Use this to assess "how well did this trade age."

• base_address vs quote_address — In a trading pair, base_address is the token being bought/sold; quote_address is what it was priced in (typically SOL native address on Solana). To get the token of interest, always read base_address.

• maker_info.tags — Array of platform labels on the wallet (e.g. ["kol", "gmgn"], ["smart_degen", "photon"]). A wallet can carry multiple tags. Use tag_rank (follow-wallet only) to see the wallet's rank within each tag category.

• Cluster signal — When multiple followed/tracked wallets trade the same token in the same direction within a short time window, this is a stronger conviction signal than a single wallet. Highlight this pattern when it appears in results.

When to use which sub-command:

• track follow-wallet — user asks "what did the wallets I follow trade?", "show me my follow list trades", "追踪关注的钱包交易动态" → requires wallets followed via GMGN platform
• track kol — user asks "what are KOLs buying?", "KOL 最近在买什么", "show me influencer trades" → returns trades from known KOL wallets
• track smartmoney — user asks "what is smart money doing?", "聪明钱最近在买什么", "show me whale trades" → returns trades from smart money / whale wallets

Do NOT confuse these three:

• follow-wallet = wallets the user has personally followed on GMGN
• kol = platform-tagged KOL / influencer wallets (not user-specific)
• smartmoney = platform-tagged smart money / whale wallets (not user-specific)

Sub-commands

Output Format

track follow-wallet / track kol / track smartmoney — Trade Feed

Present as a reverse-chronological trade feed. Do not dump raw JSON.

{timestamp}  {side}  {base_token.symbol}  ${amount_usd}  by {maker_info.name or short address}
             [{tags}]  Price: ${price_usd}  |  Price now: ${price_now}  ({price_change}x since trade)

Group by token if multiple trades hit the same token. Highlight tokens where several followed wallets traded in the same direction within a short window (cluster signal).

For follow-wallet, also show is_open_or_close: flag full position opens/closes distinctly from partial adds/reduces.

Safety Constraints

• track follow-wallet requires GMGN_PRIVATE_KEY — this signing key is linked to your GMGN account. It is used for authentication only (no on-chain access), but must be protected like any credential. Never expose it in logs or command output.
• follow-wallet reveals your following list — results expose which wallets you have followed on GMGN. Do not share raw output in public channels.
• track kol / track smartmoney expose no personal data — these use API Key auth only and return platform-tagged public wallet activity. Safe to share raw output.

Notes

• track kol / track smartmoney use normal auth (API Key only, no signature required)
• track follow-wallet requires GMGN_PRIVATE_KEY for signature auth — and wallets must be followed via the GMGN platform first
• Use --raw to get single-line JSON for further processing
• track kol / track smartmoney --side is a client-side filter — the CLI fetches all results then filters locally; it is NOT sent to the API
