Smart money DCA orders on Solana via Jupiter, from Nansen blockchain analytics
What it does
This endpoint returns DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) orders placed by smart money wallets on Solana through Jupiter DCA. It reveals systematic accumulation and distribution strategies used by sophisticated traders, including deposit amounts, redemption status, input/output tokens, and vault details.
The endpoint is part of Nansen's broader API (v1), which provides blockchain analytics and smart money intelligence across multiple chains. The DCAs endpoint specifically focuses on Solana-based Jupiter DCA activity. It accepts POST requests with optional filters for smart money labels (Fund, Smart Trader, 30D/90D/180D Smart Trader), trader addresses, token symbols, deposit amounts, and DCA status. Results are paginated and sortable by fields like deposit value, creation date, and token amounts. The endpoint costs $0.05 per call via x402 protocol, or 50 credits (free tier) / 5 credits (pro tier) via API key.
Nansen's API covers a wide range of analytics beyond this endpoint, including smart money netflows, DEX trades, perpetual trades, wallet profiling, token screening, Polymarket prediction market data, and AI research agents. All endpoints support x402 pay-per-request settlement alongside traditional API key authentication.

Quality
Full OpenAPI 3.1 schema with detailed request/response models, clear pricing ($0.05/call via x402), and comprehensive endpoint documentation. The 402 probe confirms the endpoint is live. Slight deduction because no actual response example was captured from the live endpoint, and crawled docs pages returned 404s (only the root health check responded).
Warnings
- —No dedicated documentation site was reachable (docs/pricing/README all returned 404); all info derived from OpenAPI spec
- —Response schema references ($ref SmartMoneyDcasResponse) are defined but example responses are inferred, not captured live
