Made in the open.
Flow’s labels are a commons: people propose, sources accumulate, reviewers weigh in, and every label that survives makes the next trace faster for everyone. This page is how to take part — and how to tell the world about what you found.
No follower counts. No paid promotion. Recognition here is earned by the work, in the product.
Five ways to help.
Every one of them starts with a free account and ends with something the rest of us can learn from.
Trace it
Pick an address, a transaction or a name and pull the thread. Expand hops, follow the inscriptions, read the OP_RETURN notes. Open the canvas →
Name it
Propose a label with its sources attached, or vote on someone else’s. Track record decides weight — being right counts, volume doesn’t. Nothing renders on a graph before a curator signs off.
Share it
Publish a trace and it gets a public link anyone can open, no account needed, with the legend attached. Drop it in a thread, a post or a paper.
Write it up
A good trace is a good story: an exchange’s year, an inscription’s travels, where a mining pool’s rewards ended up. The press kit below covers how to cite what Flow shows.
Tell us what is wrong
A cluster that looks off, a label you dispute, a feature that gets in your way. The form at the bottom of this page reaches the builders directly.
One rule: labels are hypotheses about wallets and services, never claims about people. Our principles →
Writing about Flow, or with it.
Everything you need to cite a trace or describe the project accurately. Please keep the caveats with the claims.
Boilerplate
Flow (followthesats.com) is a public Bitcoin explorer for the whole chain: full-chain address clustering, interactive flow analysis, ordinal and OP_RETURN decoding, and community-reviewed labels. It is built by an anonymous, independent team and funded by Enterprise customers so the public tier stays free. Labels on Flow are community hypotheses with stated confidence, not findings of fact.
Citing a trace
Publish the trace from the canvas and link the public URL. Name the publisher (you), the publication date shown in the viewer, and the clusters as Flow labels them — with the ≈ where the viewer shows one, because that mark means “community hypothesis”. A label describes a wallet or a service, never a person.

Use them as they are; please don’t imply endorsement. Exports from the canvas carry a small followthesats.com mark.
Questions from journalists and researchers: use the form below and say so — those go to the front of the queue.
Help shape what gets built.
A small, invite-only group of people who actually use Flow: analysts, writers, researchers, educators, developers, collectors. Early features first, a direct line to the builders, and a named thank-you on this page if you want one.
What it is not: an ambassador program. We don’t ask for follower counts, we don’t pay for posts, and nothing about the circle touches attribution — a member’s vote weighs exactly what their track record has earned, like everyone else’s.
Received — thank you. We read everything; if we open the circle to you, expect an invitation from accounts@followthesats.com.
We ask only for what a reply requires. No account, no tracking pixels, no analytics on this form, and no third-party data sharing. We keep your message only as long as the conversation is active.
Earned in the product.
Your track record travels with you: contributors who are consistently right carry more weight, whoever they are. Challenges and personal stats are live for every account; leaderboards follow as the community grows.
