NAVI vs Bubblemaps

Last updated: 2026-09-25

Bubblemaps is the leading holder-map tool across 15 chains. NAVI puts a lighter Solana holder map next to a rug check, risk score and alerts. What each does better.

An honest comparison, as of September 2026. Bubblemaps made the holder map famous and is still the deeper tool. NAVI's map is smaller and sits next to everything else you check before a trade.

The short answer

Bubblemaps draws a token's top 250 holders as bubbles and links wallets that have transferred tokens between them. Its V2 app is free and adds Magic Nodes (non-holder addresses such as a shared funder, to expose hidden clusters), Time Travel (the holder picture at any point since launch) and a decentralization score. It covers around 15 chains and is embedded in many tools, from DEX Screener to Pump.fun.

NAVI's bubble map is narrower: the top 25 holders of a Solana token, linked when they have sent the token to each other or were funded by the same wallet, with groups of seven or more marked as bundled. Its point is where it sits: on the token's page, next to the rug check, NAVI's risk score, alerts and a swap panel. If the holder map is the main thing you want to study, Bubblemaps is the better tool.

Where Bubblemaps is stronger

Depth. 250 holders against NAVI's 25, links from transfers in any token and sometimes across chains, Magic Nodes to add a suspected funder to the map, and Time Travel to see how the supply was distributed at launch. NAVI has none of those.

Coverage and reach. Bubblemaps lists 15 chains including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base and Solana, and says its maps refresh within six hours. Its map is embedded in tools many traders already use, and Jupiter's own docs note that its top-10 holders figure opens a Bubblemaps view. NAVI covers Solana only.

Investigations. Bubblemaps runs Intel Desk, a public space where on-chain investigators post and vote on cases, which has made it a reference point for exposing coordinated wallets.

How Bubblemaps is paid for

Bubblemaps says it made V2 free, including Magic Nodes and Time Travel. Its wiki reserves some features for holders of its BMT token: P&L on the map, cross-chain analytics, AI summaries of clusters and maps of the top 1,000 holders. The wiki does not say how much BMT is needed or which of these are live yet. BMT is also used on Intel Desk to vote on cases (100 BMT to submit one) and fund bounties. Its data API and embeds for exchanges are paid.

NAVI charges nothing to view a map that has already been built. Building a new one takes a lot of on-chain reads, so a signed-out visitor can build one, a free account can build three a day, and Pro has no daily limit. A map can be refreshed once it is 12 to 72 hours old, depending on how volatile the token is.

Where NAVI is stronger

The map next to the checks. On NAVI you see who holds a token and, on the same page, whether its mint and freeze authority are revoked, how much of its liquidity is unlocked, its risk level and a short AI read. A token can have a spread-out holder map and a live freeze authority; NAVI shows both.

Alerts and trading. A free NAVI account can alert you when a token you watch is raised to High risk or crosses a price, in the app, by browser notification or on Telegram, and you can swap from the token's market page. Bubblemaps has a built-in swap too, but no risk alerts that we could find.

Pros

  • Bubblemaps: the deepest holder maps, with Magic Nodes and Time Travel
  • Bubblemaps: 15 chains and a wide embed footprint
  • NAVI: holder map beside the rug check, risk score and AI read
  • NAVI: alerts when a watched token rises to High risk

Cons

  • NAVI: maps only the top 25 holders and only on Solana
  • NAVI: no time travel, no manual nodes, no API
  • Bubblemaps: holder map only; you need other tools for contract checks and alerts

Who it's for

  • Bubblemaps: investigators and anyone studying how a token's supply is really held
  • NAVI: Solana traders who want the holder picture as part of a quick pre-trade check
  • Both: spot a cluster on NAVI, then dig into it on Bubblemaps

Frequently asked questions

Is Bubblemaps free?
Bubblemaps says V2 is free, including Magic Nodes and Time Travel. As of September 2026 its wiki lists P&L, cross-chain analytics, AI cluster summaries and 1,000-holder maps as features for BMT token holders.
Is NAVI's bubble map free?
Viewing a map that has already been built is free with no account. Building a new one is free once without an account, then three a day with a free account; Pro has no daily limit.
Why does NAVI's map show fewer holders?
NAVI maps the top 25 holders so a map can be built in seconds as part of a token check. Bubblemaps maps 250, which is better for a full investigation.
What does a red bubble mean on NAVI's map?
A group of seven or more wallets linked by transfers or a shared funding wallet, which NAVI marks as bundled. Groups of two to six are amber. See bundled supply for why it matters.
