## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## DeFi Alpha Suite — Smart Money Wallet + Yield Intelligence

**DeFi Alpha Suite** cross-references **on-chain whale wallet positions (via DeBank)** with **DeFi Llama's 10,000+ yield pool database** to answer the most valuable question in DeFi: *Where are the smart money wallets farming, and what APY are they getting?* Returns matched yield opportunities with wallet validation. $0.02/wallet + $0.005/opportunity.

Yield farming alpha decays fast — pools that were paying 40% APY in January are at 8% by March as capital piles in. But smart money moves first. Tracking where top wallets actively farm — before the copy-trade crowd — is one of the few ways to capture genuine yield alpha.

***

### Why use DeFi Alpha Suite?

1. **Copy-trade DeFi yield strategies** — Track known high-conviction DeFi wallets (DAO treasuries, on-chain funds, protocol teams). Where they farm tends to be where yields are real and sustainble.
2. **Discover high-APY pools with institutional validation** — Any pool can show 100% APY. Pools where smart money is actively depositing are far less likely to be mercenary liquidity traps.
3. **Monitor smart money rotation** — When a wallet exits one protocol and enters another, it's a directional signal before APY changes are visible on DeFi dashboards.
4. **Protocol trust research** — See which protocols whale wallets trust with large capital. High TVL from smart money wallets = ecosystem confidence signal.
5. **Portfolio strategy discovery** — Track your own wallets alongside whale benchmarks to see where you're underperforming on yield.

***

### How to use

1. Open the actor on Apify Store and click **Try for free**.
2. Optionally provide a list of wallet addresses in `wallets` (or use the default 5 known DeFi whales).
3. Set `minApy` and `minTvlMillion` thresholds to filter noise.
4. Optionally add a DeBank Pro API key for better position accuracy.
5. Click **Start**. Returns `yield_opportunity` records (per matched pool) and `wallet_summary` records (per wallet).

### FAQ

**What wallets should I track?**
Best results come from DeFi-native wallets: DAO treasuries (Uniswap, Aave, Compound), on-chain funds (Wintermute, Cumberland), and protocol deployer addresses. CEX hot wallets (Binance, Coinbase) mostly hold custody assets and show limited DeFi positions.

**Does it require a DeBank API key?**
No — the unofficial DeBank endpoint works without authentication. A Pro API key improves position fetch accuracy and allows higher request volume. Add it in `debankApiKey` if you run this frequently.

**How current is DeFi Llama yield data?**
DeFi Llama updates pool APY every few hours. For real-time yield monitoring, combine with DeFi Llama's direct dashboard.

**What does `apy_reward` being high mean?**
High reward APY from protocol incentive tokens often decays as the token inflates and farmers sell. A pool with `apy_base: 5` and `apy_reward: 40` is risky for stable yield; look for `apy_base` as the sustainable floor.
