Cryptocurrency search: overview
The Cryptocurrency search type lets you look up a crypto wallet address and pull back what the underlying source holds for it. Pick it from the search composer when your starting identifier is an on-chain address rather than a username, email, phone number, or other identifier.

When to use it
Section titled “When to use it”Use the Cryptocurrency search type when you have a wallet address and want to:
- Review the address’s on-chain activity — its transaction history, balance, and associated metadata (via the Address Lookup Module).
- Pivot from an address to the websites that reference or accept it (via the Websites by Address Module).
This search type exposes two Modules — Address Lookup and Websites by Address. For the full breakdown of each Module, its cost, and what it returns, see Cryptocurrency modules & options.
The end-to-end flow
Section titled “The end-to-end flow”The Cryptocurrency search type follows the same search composer flow as every other search in UserSearch — see How UserSearch works for the general model.
- In the composer header, open the Search type selector and choose Cryptocurrency. It is shown with a Bitcoin (₿) glyph and a chevron.
- Pick a Module from the grid — Address Lookup (selected by default) or Websites by Address. The Module grid is single-select: selecting one deselects the other. The selected tile is drawn with a coral-orange highlighted border, and it loads its description, its Cost per search value, and its query form below.
- Enter your identifier in the Wallet Address field. In the captured build the field placeholder is an Ethereum-style
0xaddress (e.g. 0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045), indicating the Module accepts EVM /0x-style crypto wallet addresses. - Confirm the Cost per search line beneath the input before you run. With Address Lookup selected it reads “Cost per search: Free” — the Module consumes no Credits per search.
- Select Search Now (the coral-orange button with a magnifier icon at the right of the input row) to run the query.
What you get back
Section titled “What you get back”Selecting Address Lookup and running a search returns, per its Module description, transaction history, balance, and associated metadata for the address. Results populate the Search Results panel on the right, which carries the standard Found / Enriched / Connections counters and Details / Graph tabs.
For how to read and verify those results — the counters, the results table columns, and the Details panel — see Reading Cryptocurrency results.
