What can I get alerts for on DAI?
On Ethereum mainnet: the ready-made rules (Whale transfers, Token transfers, Token approvals), everything on the contract, any one of its 2 catalog events, any one of its 3 methods. Each link on this page opens the add form filled in.
Can I get an alert for one event only?
Yes. Under "Pick one event" or "Pick one method", open the link: the form opens on this contract with that one event or method picked. Add a condition on its arguments if you like, then click Create.
Why does the form show a volume estimate for DAI?
It is a busy contract: every matching transaction counts as an event on your plan. The form shows a rough estimate before you create the rule; add a condition, such as a minimum amount or one address, to get fewer alerts.
Can I set this up for free?
Yes. The free Beta plan covers one contract and needs no card, so any one of these rules fits in it.
Is Alerts on Chain affiliated with DAI?
No. Alerts on Chain is not affiliated with DAI or its team. The rules read public on-chain data from the contract listed on this page.
Does it cover other chains?
Ethereum mainnet only. The rules watch the contract listed on this page.
Is this investment advice?
