What is an NFT analytics tool?

Non-fungible token (NFT) analytics tools are used by blockchain network users to gain insights into the supply and demand of NFTs, upcoming mint events, highly-traded collections, trending NFT collections, historical data, number of holders, floor price, and trade volume among other relevant data points.

In other words, by harnessing publicly available information on the network, these paid and free tools allow users to understand what is trending, who is trading specific NFTs, and where arbitrage opportunities exist across Solana's various NFT marketplaces.

As a result of the explosive growth associated with NFT volume, trading, and user activity on Solana, there are several NFT tools on the market. In this article, we will look at a variety of NFT analytics tools on Solana including rarity tools, tracking tools, aggregators, and research tools.

By using analytics tools to identify patterns and discrepancies, traders, builders, and collectors can gain a competitive edge in a brand new market.

What are the different types of NFT analytics tools?

There are two different types of NFT analytics tools: NFT rarity tools and NFT tracking tools. Each type of tool serves a different purpose for the end-user. As alluded to previously, many tools are dependent on public information, so access to open-source data is crucial.

NFT Rarity Tools

An NFT’s perceived worth is heavily influenced by the uniqueness of its specific attributes within the context of a generative NFT collection. Typically, rarer NFTs are valued at higher prices because fewer of them exist. The same is true for 1-of-1 NFTs: a limited supply of NFTs from popular artists increases the value.

NFT Tracking Tools

NFT tracking tools allow users to analyze historical and real-time data for NFT collections, wallets, or mints. End-users can employ this type of tool to obtain the latest data, create custom alerts, follow curated feeds, and view dynamic charts. While there are free online trackers, end-users can also opt for premium-tiered services that offer additional features. 

What are the best NFT Solana analytics tools?

While there are several NFT analytics tools to choose from, these tools are some of the most frequently used by collectors across the Solana NFT ecosystem.

Developers and users who are interested in monitoring NFT activity on the Solana network can read on to learn more about Alchemy’s recommended tools.

1. HowRare.is

The NFT rarity tool, HowRare.is, was established in 2021 by SOL Big Brain, the founder of Big Brain Holdings, a crypto-exclusive fund investing in early-stage blockchain projects. HowRare allows users to evaluate the rarity and market stats of Solana-based NFTs.

To get listed on HowRare, creators can submit their NFTs for rarity ranking and potentially a listing on the site’s main page, a process driven by a few computational methodologies that determine the overall rank of the NFT. 

Once listed, an end-user is able to view data on floor price, number of items and holders, NFTs on sale, and more information pertaining to each collection.

Today, the tool boasts an impressive 3.32 million active items across 906 collections and a total volume of 831,000 SOL. Interested developers can tap into the tool’s public APIs to keep track of data or be informed about upcoming NFT drops. 

2. Moonrank.app

Moonrank is an absolute statistical rarity tool for NFTs on the Solana blockchain. This analytical tool ranks and indexes new collections in real-time with no external input into the ranking procedure, meaning each collection is ranked in exactly the same way.

End-users can browse through the numerous collections on the site and sort through NFTs based on custom filters. In fact, end users can learn about the collection’s address, number of pieces, when the first piece was minted, and the time the last piece was minted.

Compared to HowRare, Moonrank typically offers faster and broader listings of NFT collections.

Moonrank utilizes a four-step process to rank NFTs on their platform: 

1. Find the maximum “shape” of the metadata in the collection by filtering the collection and storing trait types 

2. Inject “null” values for missing traits

3. Ranking the pieces based on the absolute statistical rarity of the combination of their traits to determine the rarity percentage of each trait type in a piece and multiplying it together to get the absolute statistical rarity 

4. Sorting the collection by absolute statistical rarity to determine the overall rank

3. SolRarity

SolRarity is a real-time NFT rarity tool that allows users to run a simple command in the SolRarity’s Discord server and get rarity statistics much sooner than NFT rarity tracking sites like MoonRank and HowRare. SolRarity is most often used directly after a mint finishes to determine the rarity of a freshly minted Solana NFT.

Solrarity also offers a sniping tool that checks over 15 marketplaces simultaneously and enables users to make a direct purchase on-chain. Access to the tool is only granted to holders of rarikey, a utility-based collection allowing users to be part of the SolRarity community and grants access to premium tools, among other benefits.

SolRarity was launched in early 2022 by a small team of five people with a vision to become the most used rarity system on the Solana network.

4. Dune Analytics

A newly minted unicorn following its $69.42 million series B fundraise in early 2022, Norway-headquartered Dune Analytics was founded by Fredrik Haga and Mats Olsen in 2018.

Harnessing the power of public blockchain data, Dune Analytics provides accessibility to everyone. Moreover, users can create custom dashboards that group queries together to tell a story. These dashboards can track multiple marketplaces transactions across networks like Solana.

Dune Analytics offers both a free version for the broader community and a pro version.
