cardanzo.tools is a new Cardano analytics tool created independently by a community member. I’d love the chance to keep improving it with new features and make it even more accessible and complete.
Enhance our data by new protocols, a mobile-friendly interface, and initiating linked-wallet detection and tracking through the introduction of token bubblemaps and detect token distribution fairness.

Analytics
Describe what makes your idea innovative compared to what has been previously launched in the market (whether by you or others).
Beyond supporting continued development and new features, this proposal focuses on advancing efforts to detect linked wallets and the token flows between them. To my knowledge, there are currently no Cardano-specific tools that can identify relationships between addresses or assets whether a token is fairly distributed among its holders, without requiring extensive manual data investigation. Many tokens may appear widely distributed while actually being concentrated within clusters of wallets controlled by only a few entities, and this proposal aims to address that gap.
Describe what your prototype or MVP will demonstrate, and where it can be accessed.
All new features will be integrated into the existing cardanzo.tools website, where progress can be publicly tracked. These enhancements will remain accessible and free for all Cardano users, no wallets or accounts will be needed.
Describe realistic measures of success, ideally with on-chain metrics.
We'll measure success through:
Please describe your proposed solution and how it addresses the problem
cardanzo.tools is a relatively new addition to the Cardano ecosystem, developed and maintained independently for nearly two years, without any affiliations to projects or institutions.
Despite a very low-profile launch just over two months ago, the platform has received strong feedback from those who discovered it—particularly regarding the depth of data, the UI, and overall speed.
According to Google Analytics, over the past 60 days we’ve had 183 users from around the world generate more than 21,000 pageviews, with a notably low bounce rate of 21.2%. While these numbers may seem modest,
I consider them remarkable given the short timeframe, current market conditions, and the fact that the social presence is still small (just 170 followers on X). I'm confident in the value of the product and would love and ask for the opportunity to improve and expanding it with new features, making it even more accessible, comprehensive, and impactful for all interested in blockchain data.
Development efforts will focus on the following key areas:
Explore Linked Wallet Tracking Basics and Token Bubblemaps. Build the foundational components for linked-wallet detection and use them to introduce Bubblemaps for tokens currently tracked on cardanzo.tools
Frontend Redesign for mobile and improved mobile accessibility. Redesign the frontend to be fully mobile-friendly and significantly enhance accessibility for mobile users. Currently, some sections require a wallet connection; will introduce an optional account-based authentication method to ensure full functionality across mobile environments.
Add new analytics features and integrate additional Cardano projects, increasing the number of tracked tokens and datasets available.
Increase social media activity to boost visibility within the Cardano community and others by sharing relevant analytics on DeFi activity—such as staking, lending, perpetuals, notable shifts in token metrics, and whale movements.
Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community
Introducing linked-wallet analytics, starting here with token bubblemaps, brings a capability to Cardano that no other project currently offers. This feature alone strengthens user confidence by revealing how tokens are distributed and helping investors assess trust and transparency. This addition alone will make our platform more useful and comprehensive for both new and existing users. At the same time, Cardano projects and CNT tokens will benefit from greater visibility, with all key metrics tracked and presented in one unified, easy-to-use interface.
What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability? How do you intend to validate if your approach is feasible?
Beeing a developer with 20 years of experience and having a product already build, I'm confident that I can deliver all the milestones on time and on budget. You can check out the work done so far on here: https://cardanzo.tools/
Milestone Title
#1. New Additions
Milestone Outputs
Expand DEX Coverage: Integrate Chadswap, P2P DEX delivering impressive recent volume.
Smarter Multi-Pool Routing: Provide reliable detection and tracking for advanced multi-pool swaps on Minswap, WingRiders, and SundaeSwap, capturing complex trade paths that we currently are missing.
Swap Aggregator: Add support for the DexHunter or Minswap aggregator, giving traders access to the most optimized routes in real time.
Professional Charting: Integrate TradingView Pro to offer enhanced technical analysis tools and a more powerful charting experience.
Broader Asset Coverage: Track more tokens to deliver deeper market insights and a more complete trading ecosystem. At the moment, tracking 136 CNTs.

Please provide a cost breakdown of the proposed work and resources
At the time of writing, 1 ADA ≈ $0.40, placing the proposal’s total budget at approximately $9.6K. This covers six months of active development and twelve months of infrastructure and hosting, for 2026. Hopping for better days (and price) for all Cardano community and $ADA holders.
The cost structure is as follows:
Annual infrastructure and hosting requires ~3,500-4,000 ADA for a decent spec server and hosting
A dedicated Cardano community member since 2020, developer, that contributes it's effort, passion, and expertise for a modest 20,000 ADA.

Building through a bear market is one of the best ways to stay focused, push past the lows, and create something truly meaningful, especially when the product is one you can be proud of and you can check it here: https://cardanzo.tools/ If you find the platform and it's data valuable or like the direction it’s heading, please consider supporting this proposal, it would mean a lot to the project. The one responsible for this proposal is Catalin Daian, developer based in Romania, doing both backend development in typescript/nodejs and frontend development in ReactJS.
