Finding top token holders

token_current_top_holders

Get upto 25 (per page) top holders information for a specific token.

Note: Using labelType: smart_money is not a good proxy for an overall market view. Use it only if user explicitly requests it, or to combine it with other non smart money data.

Modes:

onchain_tokens (default): Analyze on-chain tokens by contract address
perps: Analyze Hyperliquid perpetual futures by symbol (chain auto-set to "hyperliquid")

Columns returned (onchain_tokens mode):

Address: Wallet/contract address of the token holder
Label: Nansen label (e.g., exchange, whale, etc.)
Balance: Current balance held (numeric with K/M/B formatting)
Balance USD: USD value of token holdings (currency formatted)
Ownership %: Percentage of total token supply owned (percentage, 2 decimal places)
Sent: Total tokens sent from this address historically (numeric)
Received: Total tokens received by this address historically (numeric)
24h Change: Balance change in last 24 hours (numeric, can be negative)
7d Change: Balance change in last 7 days (numeric, can be negative)
30d Change: Balance change in last 30 days (numeric, can be negative)

Columns returned (perps mode):

Trader Address: Address of the trader
Trader Label: Nansen label for the trader
Side: Position direction (Long/Short)
Position Value USD: Total USD value of the position (currency formatted)
Position Size: Size of the position in tokens (numeric)
Leverage: Leverage multiplier (e.g., "20X")
Leverage Type: Type of leverage (cross/isolated)
Entry Price: Average entry price (price formatted)
Mark Price: Current mark price (price formatted)
Liquidation Price: Liquidation price (price formatted)
Funding USD: Cumulative funding payments (currency formatted)
Unrealized PnL USD: Unrealized profit/loss (currency formatted)

Sorting Options (default: holding_size desc): onchain_tokens mode: holding_size, total_outflow, total_inflow, balance_change_24h, balance_change_7d, balance_change_30d perps mode: holding_size, side, entry_price, leverage, liquidation_price, funding_usd, upnl_usd Use only a value listed for the selected mode. A value from the wrong mode is not an error: the call falls back to holding_size and the output notes the changed sort.

**Native-token / stablecoin `orderBy` restriction:**
With `labelType='top_100_holders'` (the default), native tokens
(`0xeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee` and native SUI) and
stablecoins/pegged tokens support `orderBy='holding_size'` only. To
sort such a token by another onchain field, use `labelType='whale'`,
`smart_money`, `exchange` or `public_figure` instead. An unsupported
combination is not an error: the call falls back to `holding_size`
and the output notes the changed sort.

**Other `top_100_holders` limits for native tokens:** limited filters
(holding_size, total_outflow, total_inflow, address, smart money
labels). For advanced filters use a different `labelType` or set
`aggregateByEntity=true`.

**Does not** work for SOL in onchain_tokens mode (tokenAddress So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112). For SOL analysis, use perps mode instead.
