Monitor Account Activity Across Chains
Introduction
Monitoring transactions across chains (e.g., EVM, Quranium, Bitcoin) is critical for detecting unauthorized access, resolving disputes, and ensuring asset security. This guide explains how to audit activity, use monitoring tools, and respond to anomalies using structured workflows and best practices.
Key Tools for Monitoring
Tool
Purpose
Activity Dashboard
Central hub to filter, track, and export transactions by chain.
Blockchain Explorers
Verify on-chain details (e.g., Etherscan for Ethereum, Quranium Explorer).
Alert Systems
Notify you of large transactions, new chain connections, or failed txs.
Best Practices
1. Use the Activity Dashboard
Filter and organize transactions efficiently:
Feature
How to Use It
Chain Filter
Isolate activity by chain (EVM, Quranium, Bitcoin).
Transaction Hash
Click to open the transaction in a blockchain explorer.
2. Verify Transactions on Explorers
Cross-check critical details using chain-specific explorers:
Bitcoin
Input/output addresses, transaction fees.
EVM
Recipient address, gas fees, smart contract calls.
Quranium
Transaction finality and confirmation count.
3. Configure Alerts
Customize notifications to stay informed:
Alert Type
Recommended Threshold
Purpose
Large Transactions
> $1,000
Detect unauthorized withdrawals.
New Chain Connections
Any
Warn about new wallet links.
Failed Transactions
Any
Investigate gas or network issues.
Step-by-Step Workflow
How to Investigate Suspicious Activity
Step
Action
Details
1
Filter by Chain
Use the Dashboard to isolate the chain with suspicious activity.
2
Review Transaction Hashes
Check recipient addresses and smart contract interactions on explorers.
3
Cross-Reference Addresses
Match against your saved address book or known contracts.
4
Revoke Access
Disconnect suspicious dApps/contracts immediately.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Mistake
Risk
Solution
Ignoring small transactions
Hackers test with tiny amounts first.
Investigate all transactions.
Not auditing all chains
Cross-chain breaches go undetected.
Use the Chain Filter weekly.
Stale dApp permissions
Old approvals may still have access.
Revoke unused permissions monthly.
Troubleshooting Unrecognized Activity
Issue
Action
Unknown recipient address
Cross-check with your saved addresses or past transactions.
Unfamiliar contract call
Search the contract address on explorers to verify legitimacy.
Balance discrepancy
Sync your wallet and check for pending transactions.
Note :
Proactive monitoring across chains is essential to safeguard your assets. Use the Activity Dashboard to filter transactions, blockchain explorers to verify details, and alerts to stay ahead of threats. Regular audits and revoking unused permissions minimize risks. A single oversight can lead to irreversible losses.
