Watch Profiles

What a watch profile is​

A watch profile is the settings record for one wallet you follow. It decides which on-chain moves that wallet reports to you, how big or how certain a move has to be before you hear about it, and how the alert reaches you.

  1. Stay on the Scan a contract tab to check who created and controls a token, or open Saved reports to reopen an earlier scan.
  2. Paste the token contract address and pick the network (Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain or Robinhood Chain) and a scan window.
  3. Select Scan to see the team and controller wallets behind the token, based on grounded on-chain evidence.

Cognivo keeps one profile per wallet. As the product puts it, a watch profile is one canonical, shared record per wallet, so editing it in the dApp, in Chat or in Telegram changes the same thing.

When to use it​

Use it when you already know a wallet matters to you, for example a team wallet, a large holder, or an address you found in a trace, and you want to know when it moves without checking by hand. Also use it when your alerts feed is too noisy, or too quiet, and you want to change what reaches you.

Where to find it​

In the dApp sidebar, open Alerts. The page has the tabs Overview, Alerts feed, Tracking, Watch Profiles, Inbox, Activity and Delivery. You add a wallet on Tracking or on Watch Profiles, and you tune it in the watch profile editor.

Add a wallet to track​

  1. Select Track new wallet to open the form, then paste the address into the Wallet address field.
  2. Set Network to the chain that wallet is on, ETH is selected here.
  3. Pick an Alert preset to decide how much this wallet tells you, Balanced (Recommended) is the starting point.
  4. Select Start tracking to save it, and the wallet appears in your Tracked wallets list.

The Alert preset you pick here is only a starting point. You can change every signal later without adding the wallet again.

The Watch Profiles tab​

Paste a wallet address, pick the Network, then select Add wallet. The networks you can pick today are Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain and Robinhood Chain. If you already have a profile for that wallet on that network, Cognivo tells you instead of creating a second one.

Each saved row shows the network and a persona chip, with buttons to pause, resume or delete. Pausing keeps your settings and stops the alerts. Deleting clears the signal settings for that wallet.

A row marked Unclassified wallet means Cognivo has not seen enough on-chain behaviour to classify that wallet yet. It is a statement about the evidence, not a judgement about the wallet.

Set what a wallet tells you​

  1. Set Default delivery to choose how alerts for this wallet reach you, Instant is selected here.
  2. Choose one option under Quick presets to set every signal in one go, Everything is selected here.
  3. Open a signal card below the preset rows to change a single signal on its own, using Min USD, Max USD, Min position %, Min severity and Min confidence to keep smaller moves out of your feed.

Default delivery applies to every signal in the profile unless you override it on a single signal. The choices are Instant, Digest, Critical only and Off.

Quick presets are grouped into three rows so you can start from the reading that matches you. SIMPLE covers Just the big moves, Balanced, Everything and Only the alarming stuff. DEGEN covers Whale moves, Fresh wallet, Distribution and Liquidity watch. INVESTOR covers Conviction, Team risk, Portfolio impact and Research digest. A preset sets every signal at once, and you can still adjust individual signals afterwards.

The chips above the fields, such as Cognivo persona (grounded), Dormant or Insufficient evidence for persona, describe what Cognivo could confirm from on-chain activity. Your own private label, note and tags are separate from that grounded persona.

Set the thresholds per signal​

Each signal card has its own delivery dropdown and five optional fields. Min USD and Max USD set a size band. Min position % filters by how much of the wallet's position moved. Min severity accepts Info, Warning or Critical. Min confidence accepts Low, Medium or High.

Leave a field blank and it stays on Any, which alerts on any value. The editor says it plainly: thresholds are optional, and nothing here charges you.

Check what is switched on​

The Watch Profile and rules panel is the summary view for a tracked wallet. It shows the preset in use, the delivery mode, and how many of the 21 alert types are enabled, with each type listed and its own delivery and minimum value. The types cover trading moves such as Buy, Sell and Full exit, liquidity moves such as Liquidity added and Liquidity pulled, movement such as Transfer in, Bridge out, Sent to exchange and From exchange, and contract events such as Token approval, New token and Contract deployed.

Check a watch is still running​

The Watches tab on the Usage and activity page lists every watch you have set up, what it covers, whether it is Active or Paused, and when it last changed. If a wallet has gone quiet, check here first that the watch is not paused.

What a quiet feed means​

If a wallet you watch sends you nothing, the usual reason is that nothing it did crossed the thresholds you set, or that the signal types involved are switched off. A quiet feed is not proof that a wallet did nothing.

The same care applies to what an alert says. An alert reports a move Cognivo observed on-chain. It does not prove intent, and a wallet with no alerts is not a wallet you have verified as safe. Where Cognivo cannot confirm something, such as a persona it has too little evidence for, it says so rather than filling the gap.

Team and controller wallets​

If you want the wallets behind a token rather than a wallet you already know, open Team Wallets from the Intelligence group in the sidebar. The page is titled Team and Controller Wallets. You enter a contract address, pick Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain or Robinhood Chain, and choose a scan window. Team wallet discovery is not switched on for Robinhood Chain yet, so Cognivo tells you that instead of answering from another network. The 24h and 7d windows are available now. The longer windows are not yet enabled and return a message saying so.

The result shows the deployer, the owner or admin, whether ownership was renounced, source verification state, and the wallets tied to control of the token, with the on-chain evidence behind each finding. A wallet Cognivo cannot attribute is reported as unclassified rather than guessed at. The movements drill-down asks you to confirm before it runs and shows the cost first. Any USD figures on those movements come from Cognivo Market Intelligence layered on grounded transfers, so a movement with no reliable price is shown without a USD figure.
