What is a bubble map in crypto?
Also called: Holder map, Bubblemap, Holder bubble map
A picture of a token's largest holders as circles sized by their share of supply, with lines between wallets that are connected on-chain.
A holder list tells you how much each wallet holds. A bubble map adds the relationships: which wallets sent tokens to each other, which were funded by the same wallet, which bought at the same moment. Connected wallets are drawn together, so one owner spread across twenty addresses shows up as one cluster.
The format was popularised by the Bubblemaps tool and is now built into many token pages. Maps differ in how many holders they include and which links they draw, so two maps of the same token can look different.
Why it matters before you trade
A bubble map answers the question a top-10 percentage cannot: are the big holders independent? A token whose top wallets form one cluster is far more concentrated than its holder list suggests, and that is what you are trading against.
How NAVI shows it
NAVI's bubble map sits on each token's market page. It draws the 25 largest holders, links wallets that have sent the token to each other or share a funding wallet, marks clusters and bundles, and labels exchanges and pools. Maps that are already built are free to view. Building a fresh one is free once without an account, then three a day with a free account.
Related terms
- Holder concentrationHow much of a token's supply is held by a small number of wallets. The higher it is, the more a few sellers can move the price.
- Bundled supplySupply bought at launch by one party through many wallets at the same moment, so the holder list looks spread out when it is really one position.
- WhaleA holder large enough to move a token's price on its own. What counts as a whale depends on the token: a whale in a small memecoin may be a minnow in SOL.
