FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 03

    How real-time is the data?

    The AI accesses the data provided by Nansen, so its responsiveness depends on Nansen's own on-chain update frequency.

    No. The AI is limited to the specific smart money entities and data categories provided by the Nansen tools.
