Cielo: how it works and how to use it

Cielo is an onchain tracking and trading app: it indexes public wallet activity across 30+ blockchains, delivers alerts to Telegram and Discord, and includes built-in Solana swaps. This guide explains what each screen does, how to set up tracking and alerts, and how to read the data without over-interpreting it.

Educational guide - not financial advice. Features and limits change, so verify details in the official documentation.

01What it is

What Cielo is

An onchain tracking and trading app, explained in plain language before the walkthrough begins.

Cielo is a web app for reading public blockchain activity. You add a wallet address, or an ENS or .sol name, and the app builds a feed of the trades, transfers and other transactions that address makes. The underlying events are already public onchain, so the value of the tool is in how it organises, labels and filters them.

The same account can also trade. Cielo provides embedded trading wallets that you control, Solana swaps inside the interface, and Telegram or Discord bots that deliver alerts about the wallets and lists you follow. Tracking and trading are separate workflows, so the app still works as a monitoring tool if you never place an order.

02Skills

What you'll learn

Four practical skills, in the order most people need them.

Setup

Add wallets and build lists

Use the Tracking page to add EVM or Solana addresses, ENS names or .sol names, label them, and group them into lists that keep the feed readable.

Data literacy

Read a wallet profile and its PnL

Open any address to see its activity, token movements and a PnL summary, and learn what that figure does and does not tell you about a wallet.

Notifications

Route alerts to Telegram or Discord

Connect a bot, choose the chains and transaction types that matter, and set a minimum swap value so only meaningful activity reaches your phone.

Accounts

Check plan limits and verify details

Read the Limits box to see wallet follows, alert usage and profile views against your plan, then confirm current rules in the official documentation.

03Checklist

Before you start

Five things to line up first. None of them involve handing over a private key.

An account and a sign-in method

Cielo supports signing in with a web wallet signature or a social account. If you use social sign-in, set up a passkey first, because that is the check used for withdrawals and private key exports. Reading the feed works on the free tier; the paid tiers raise the tracking and alert limits described in step 7.

Public addresses, never private keys

Tracking reads public addresses. Cielo never needs your seed phrase or private key to show onchain activity, and no legitimate support channel will ask for one.

A rough idea of networks, fees and risk

Each transaction settles on the chain that hosts it, and network fees are paid separately from any app fee. Trading also carries risk, including losing what you put into a trading wallet; the official documentation describes how fees, withdrawals and risks work.

Region and identity-check expectations

Availability, sign-up requirements and identity checks vary by region. Confirm which countries and requirements currently apply on the official site before creating an account.

An official source bookmarked

Start from cielo.finance and app.cielo.finance directly. Links from search ads, direct messages or token names are a common way to reach a lookalike site.

04Walkthrough

Step by step

Seven steps from a blank account to a readable feed. Each step names the screen to look for.

Create your account

Open the official web app and sign in by connecting a web wallet such as Phantom or MetaMask, or with a social account. If you sign in socially, set up a passkey before doing anything else: it is the check used for withdrawals and private key exports.

TipBookmark the app URL yourself. Do not sign in through a link sent in a direct message or a sponsored search result.

Add wallets and build lists

In Tracking, choose Track Wallets and paste an EVM or Solana address, an ENS name or a .sol name. Add a label you will recognise, then repeat for the addresses you want to study. Create lists to group them by purpose, so one feed can be filtered instead of mixed.

Each wallet can carry its own alert settings, including which transaction types it reports and a minimum swap value in US dollars.

TipThe Limits box on the Tracking page shows wallet follows, hourly alert usage and wallet profile views against your plan.

Follow addresses and read a wallet profile

Open any tracked address to see its profile: recent transactions, token movements, the lists it belongs to and a PnL summary. Following an address only adds it to your views; it does not give you any control over the wallet.

PnL is shorthand for a running comparison between what a wallet paid for positions and what those positions were worth when measured. It is historical, it can be negative, it does not describe how the wallet is managed, and it says nothing about what the wallet will do next.

TipRead the transaction list before the summary number. A summary compresses information that the list keeps intact.

Route alerts to Telegram or Discord

Alerts are configured in the web app under Settings and then Alerts. Connect a Telegram or Discord bot, then choose which wallets or lists it reports on, which chains and transaction types count, and an optional minimum swap value. Assigning one bot per purpose keeps channels readable: one for wallets you study, another for your own addresses.

Higher plans include additional and private bots, which help when you want separate channels without mixing contexts.

TipStart with one or two wallets and a value threshold. You can widen the filter later without rebuilding the list.

Read the activity feed and discovery views

The feed lists transactions from the wallets and lists you follow, with the token, the size and the timestamp. Discovery-style cards group addresses by behaviour, such as how often they trade, which tokens they interact with and how long they hold, so you can decide which addresses are worth a closer look.

These views describe public data. An address appearing in a discovery card is not a recommendation, and nothing in the interface states what a wallet will do next.

TipTreat discovery as a shortlist to investigate rather than a conclusion. Open the profile and the transactions before keeping the address.

Check behavioural insights and analytics

Insights views summarise patterns for a wallet or a list: trading frequency, average holding time, how concentrated token positions are, and how often an address interacts with tokens it has never held before.

Use them to ask better questions, such as whether a wallet changes behaviour across chains or time periods. A single metric rarely explains a wallet on its own, and the views are only as complete as the data indexed beneath them.

TipCompare a wallet with its own history before comparing it with another wallet. Different goals produce very different activity patterns.

Review plan limits and verify in the docs

The Limits box on Tracking shows wallet follows, hourly alert usage and wallet profile views for your plan. Free, Pro and Whale differ mainly in those caps, with extras such as private bots and BTC mempool alerts on the higher tiers.

This page is a map, not a contract. Prices, limits and features change, so confirm the current values in the official documentation before you subscribe.

TipNote the limits that applied when you upgraded, so you can tell when something changes.

05Glossary

Glossary

Five terms that come up in almost every Cielo view, defined plainly.

01Wallet tracking
Following a public address so its onchain transactions appear in your feed. Tracking needs only the address: not a connection to the wallet, and never its private key.
02PnL
A running comparison between what a wallet paid for positions and what those positions were worth when measured. It is historical, it can be negative, and one figure does not explain how a wallet is managed.
03Netflow and narrative
Netflow is the difference between value moving into and out of a wallet, token or list over a period. A narrative is a label that groups tokens or wallets by a shared theme. Both are interpretations of public data, not predictions.
04Alert bot
A Telegram or Discord bot linked to your account that delivers messages about the wallets, tokens or lists you enable. Plans differ in how many bots you can connect and how many alerts per hour they can send.
05Wallet list
A named group of addresses. Lists make the feed filterable and let you send a whole group to one alert bot instead of configuring every address separately.
06Safety

Common mistakes and safety checklist

Most problems with onchain tools are not data problems. They are link, identity and interpretation problems.

Lookalike sites and sponsored links

Search ads, direct messages and token names can point to a site that copies the brand. Type or bookmark the official domain, and check that links in the documentation match the address bar.

Fake alerts, bots and support messages

Cielo will not message you first, ask for a private key, seed phrase, passkey or two-factor code, or ask you to confirm a wallet on another site. Treat unexpected bot invitations and support offers as hostile.

Over-reading a single view

One PnL figure, one wallet label or one large transfer does not establish anything about future behaviour. Cross-check the profile history and the block explorer, and note which period a metric covers.

Shared devices, sessions and bot tokens

A signed-in session can act on your account. Use a passkey, avoid signing in on shared machines, close QR sign-in screens before sharing your screen, and keep private bot tokens to yourself.

07FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Short answers to the questions that come up before and during setup.

How do I get started with Cielo?

Open the official web app, sign in with a web wallet or a social account, and set up a passkey if you use social sign-in. Then open Tracking, choose Track Wallets and add an EVM address, Solana address, ENS name or .sol name. Reading the feed needs only public addresses.

Does tracking a wallet give Cielo access to my funds?

No. Tracking uses public addresses only, and signing in with a wallet proves ownership with a signature rather than handing over control. Trading wallets inside the app are embedded wallets that you own, and withdrawals or private key exports require a passkey or a wallet signature.

How do Telegram and Discord alerts work?

You connect a bot from the Alerts settings in the web app, then choose which wallets, lists, chains and transaction types it reports, plus an optional minimum swap value. The bot then delivers a formatted message whenever a matching transaction appears onchain. Plans differ in how many bots and how many alerts per hour you get.

What do the Free, Pro and Whale plans change?

They mainly change limits: how many wallets you can follow, how many alerts per hour you can receive, how many wallet profiles you can open, and how many Telegram or Discord bots you can connect. Higher tiers also add extras such as private bots and BTC mempool alerts. Confirm current pricing and limits in the official documentation.

Where should I check details or get help?

Use the official documentation for feature guides, security notes and API references, and the official site for current plans. For account problems, use the support options listed there and ignore unsolicited direct messages offering help.

Open the app and follow along

The interface makes more sense with a small, deliberate list. Start with one wallet, one list and one alert route, then widen things once the feed stays readable.
