Smart money: the convergence that front-runs a pump
When two or more distinct proven-wallet trees buy the same fresh mint, the card appears — the pattern behind 'five guys turned 1k into 100k', flagged at the front edge and scored honestly.
The signal is convergence, not any single wallet: the page surfaces a token when ≥2 distinct smart-money funder trees bought the same fresh mint. A burner funded by a cohort wallet still counts as that tree — so the flag means genuinely separate proven money reached the same conclusion, which is the pattern that sits at the front edge of big runs.
Where the cohort comes from
The wallet set grows itself on-chain. A scout lane scores fresh launches' early buyers and admits the ones that repeat 30x+ wins; GMGN ranks feed it as a second source. So the flag isn't 'a famous wallet bought' — it's wallets with a measured record of turning early entries into multiples, arriving together.
A hit rate it has to earn
Every card self-scores on a 30x/50x ladder for 7 days after flagging — the hit rate on the page is the real one, computed from what flagged tokens actually did, not a marketing claim. Email alerts go out on every non-flagged signal to anyone subscribed, so the signal reaches you without the page being open.
Convergence is information, not certainty: smart wallets lose too — they just lose less often and exit faster. A flag tells you proven money entered; it says nothing about when it leaves. Treat every card as an entry to vet, not an instruction — and watch the wallet before you size.

Frequently asked
What does the smart money page flag?
Tokens where two or more distinct proven-wallet trees bought the same fresh mint — convergence by wallets with a measured record of 30x+ wins, flagged at the front edge of the curve.
Where does the smart-money wallet list come from?
It grows itself on-chain: a scout lane scores fresh launches' early buyers and admits wallets that repeat 30x+ wins, with GMGN ranks as a second source. Burners funded by a cohort wallet still count as that tree.
Is the hit rate real or marketing?
Real — every flagged card self-scores on a 30x/50x ladder for 7 days after the flag, so the rate on the page is computed from what signals actually did.
Can I get alerted without watching the page?
Yes — email alerts go out on every non-flagged signal for subscribers, so convergence reaches you while the page is closed.
