As Bitcoin continues to evolve beyond a store of value, Nansen is stepping up to empower the communities building that future. Today, Nansen is proud to announce its integration with Stacks, the premier Bitcoin Layer-2 protocol. This partnership marks a significant leap forward in delivering unparalleled transparency, actionable data, and investor intelligence to the Stacks ecosystem.
Why Stacks Matters
Stacks unleashes the latent potential of Bitcoin by enabling DeFi, NFTs, and smart contracts — all secured by the Bitcoin network. It’s the infrastructure fueling Bitcoin’s next chapter: one driven by programmability and user-driven innovation. Since the launch of sBTC in January, Stacks has witnessed explosive growth, with TVL approaching $600 million and daily transactions consistently hitting the 15,000–30,000 range.
Unlocking the Bitcoin Economy with Nansen
Through this integration, users across the Stacks community—from developers and founders to crypto investors—can now tap into Nansen’s industry-leading analytics stack:
- Real-Time Wallet Intelligence: Track whale movements, major holders, and smart money across the Stacks network.
- Smart Investment Signals: Follow top-performing addresses and discover rising assets early.
- Community Dashboards: Visualize adoption, track ecosystem trends, and decode the narratives driving onchain activity.
- Discovery Engine: Surface emerging projects and protocols building on Stacks.
“Stacks is unlocking a new era for Bitcoin by enabling programmability and DeFi, and we’re excited to help accelerate that vision,” said Alex Svanevik, CEO and Co-founder of Nansen. “By integrating Stacks, we’re giving everyone —from builders to institutional investors — the tools they need to make smarter moves, spot new opportunities, and build a more connected community.”
Elevating SportFi, DeFi—and Everything in Between
This move follows Nansen’s recent integrations with networks like zkSync, Chiliz, and Mantle, reflecting its strategy to support high-growth ecosystems. The addition of Stacks expands Nansen’s coverage of the Bitcoin Layer-2 landscape and strengthens its commitment to decentralized infrastructure that scales the crypto economy.
“Real-time analytics and monitoring tools from Nansen provide those building or betting on Bitcoin a best-in-class experience for deriving key insights,” said Mitchell Cuevas, Executive Director at the Stacks Foundation. “This integration enables the Stacks community to focus on emerging trends, dive deep into on-chain behavior, and make decisions with conviction. Empowering builders with these kinds of tools isn’t just nice to have, it is central to unlocking the Bitcoin economy."
