# Supported Chains

### Overview

The Nansen API supports 38 blockchain networks across EVM and non-EVM ecosystems. Chain support varies by endpoint.

For native assets such as ETH, BTC, and SOL, see [Native Tokens](/reference/native-tokens.md) for the placeholder addresses expected by token-based endpoints and their coverage limitations.

### EVM Chains

EVM-compatible chains use the standard Ethereum address format (`0x` + 40 hex characters).

### Using the "all" Chain

Some endpoints support `"all"` to query across all supported chains:

```json
{
  "chains": ["all"]
}
```

This expands to all chains supported by that specific endpoint.

### Chain Support by Endpoint

Not all chains are available on all endpoints. Here's the support matrix:

### Examples

#### Single Chain Query

```json
{
  "chains": ["ethereum"]
}
```

#### Multi-Chain Query

```json
{
  "chains": ["ethereum", "solana", "base"]
}
```

#### All Chains Query

```json
{
  "chains": ["all"]
}
```

### Chain-Specific Considerations

#### Solana

* Uses base58 addresses
* Transaction lookup not supported
* Full support for Smart Money and TGM

#### Bitcoin

* Limited endpoint support (Profiler only)
* Supports P2PKH, P2SH, and Bech32 addresses
* No Smart Money or TGM support

#### TON

* Uses EQ.../UQ... address format
* Addresses are automatically normalized
* No PnL endpoints

#### Hyperliquid

* Perpetuals platform only
* Used for perp-specific endpoints
* No standard token endpoints

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.nansen.ai/reference/chains.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
