Crypto exchange Binance is collaborating with blockchain data platform Bubblemaps to enhance insights for users of its non-custodial Web3 Wallet regarding potential insider trading and token manipulation.
This integration will enable millions of Binance Web3 Wallet users to access Bubblemaps’ blockchain data visualization tool, allowing them to view token distribution and on-chain wallet clusters, aiming to introduce “layers of transparency” to the Binance experience, as announced on Wednesday by Cointelegraph.
Binance seeks to assist traders in identifying insider trading activities or other coordinated market behaviors by analyzing a token’s distribution patterns.
“As more traders and activity transition on-chain, the demand for accessible, transparent blockchain data rises. Integrating Bubblemaps into Binance Wallet is part of this initiative to provide our users with clear insights, helping them make better-informed trading decisions,” stated Winson Liu, head of Binance Wallet.

Bubblemaps has previously played a role in identifying insider token sales and suspicious activities surrounding popular celebrity-endorsed memecoins, including the US First Lady Melania Trump’s Melania Meme (MELANIA) token.
On April 7, Bubblemaps disclosed that the team behind the MELANIA token transferred $30 million worth of community funds that were “quietly sold, with no explanation from the team.”

Crypto trading needs more data transparency
The expanding on-chain economy has generated a demand for more transparent blockchain data for crypto traders, as noted by Nicolas Vaiman, CEO of Bubblemaps, who added:
“This integration marks an important step in our mission to make blockchain transparency accessible to everyone.”
Bubblemaps converts blockchain data into intuitive visual clusters, with wallets depicted as bubbles interconnected with other entities based on their transaction histories.
Traders utilize the tool to pinpoint potential anomalies, such as high token concentrations aggregated across the same entity, which may indicate insider activity.
The partnership comes five months after Bubblemaps introduced Time Travel, a tool aimed at detecting insider activities related to the rising memecoin scams.
