Data Coverage by Chain

How far back Nansen data goes on each chain, and how fresh live data is.

This page is the single source of truth for how far back Nansen indexes each chain and how fresh live data is. Individual endpoint pages link here for historical coverage; any endpoint that applies its own stricter limit says so on its own page.

Data freshness

  • Live data (queries whose date range includes today): underlying on-chain activity is indexed in near real time — typically reflected within seconds to a couple of minutes. Some endpoints additionally serve current-day responses from a short cache (up to 5 minutes) to protect performance.

  • Historical data (fully past date ranges): stable — once a window has settled (a couple of days after it closes), the underlying transfer and historical-price facts no longer change. Results may still be revised for late-arriving/backfilled on-chain data, data-quality corrections, and attribution/label updates (labels are always evaluated against Nansen's current dictionaries). Recently-closed windows are served fresh (not from the long cache) until they settle.

Historical coverage

Each chain is indexed from its genesis (or Nansen's onboarding point for that chain) forward. Earliest available data:

Chains that onboarded before mid-2023 (Ethereum through Linea above) offer 3+ years of history; newer chains offer proportionally less.

Hyperliquid perpetuals (e.g. the perp PnL leaderboard) are a separate dataset from the chains above, with reliable data from May 2025 onward.

Prediction markets (Polymarket) are a separate dataset from the chains above. Trade, price, and PnL history is available from November 2022 onward, and updates live (within the standard latency).

How this maps to endpoints

For most endpoints, coverage for a given chain equals the start date above. An endpoint returns data as far back as the chain allows, bounded only by your requested date range. Where an endpoint enforces its own limit (for example, a reduced max date range per request for a few extremely high-volume addresses), that limit is documented on the endpoint's own page.
