DeepSea tagged 2,790 new smart money wallets in a week, and not a single new bot
DeepSea's weekly report counts 2,615 wallets seen for the first time from October 26 to November 1, plus 652 new DeFi borrowers and 93 new influencer (KOL) wallets. Here is what the labels mean.
Key points
- DeepSea added 2,615 wallets it saw for the first time in the week of October 26 to November 1, 2026.
- It gave the smart money label to 2,790 wallets, more than any other type. DeFi borrowers (652) and DeFi lenders (550) came next.
- It flagged zero new bot wallets and zero new trading-bot users.
What DeepSea's data shows
DeepSea's weekly report has a section on new wallets and bot activity for October 26 to November 1, 2026. It shows 2,615 new wallets first seen that week and 2,790 new smart money labels. Smart money means wallets with a strong trading record.
The other new labels: DeFi borrowers 652, DeFi lenders 550, deep-pocket wallets 535, rising traders 240, proven traders 172, holder sharks 155, developer or team wallets 106, KOLs (crypto influencers) 93 and cold wallets (offline storage) 5. New bot wallets flagged, such as bundlers, snipers and MEV bots: 0. New wallets trading through bots: 0.

More labels than new wallets
The smart money count (2,790) is higher than the count of brand-new wallets (2,615). Add every type and DeepSea handed out 5,298 labels in the week. The report does not explain the gap. One possible reading is that a wallet can earn a label after it was first seen, once it has built a trading record, and that one wallet can hold more than one label.

Borrowers outnumbered lenders
New DeFi borrowers (652) beat new DeFi lenders (550). Dollar totals point the other way, though they cover all tracked wallets, not only new ones: the same report shows $12.70 billion supplied that week and $3.24 billion borrowed.
Why zero bots matters
Bots such as snipers (which buy new tokens in the first seconds) and bundlers (which buy from many wallets at once) often signal a crowded, fast memecoin market. A count of zero suggests a quiet week for new bot activity on the chains DeepSea covers, but the report does not say whether its bot detector found nothing or did not run.
LC Insight analysis
This section is our reading of the facts above, not a statement of fact.
- We think the 2,790 new smart money labels are the headline, but a label only means a good past record. It does not mean the next trade will win.
- The same report shows tracked smart money wallets on Solana had realized losses of $2.10 million that week, a reminder that following labeled wallets is not a free edge.
- A zero bot count in a week when Asian exchanges took in a net $5.25 billion is worth a second look. If it stays at zero, we will ask DeepSea how it is measured.
What's next
- Whether new smart money labels stay near 2,800 next week
- Whether the bot count moves off zero
- New KOL wallets, 93 this week
