Why monitor on-chain activity?

• Enhancing Security: By keeping a close eye on on-chain activities, unusual transactions indicative of potential security breaches or fraudulent activities can be spotted early on, thereby mitigating possible losses.
  
  
• Informing Business Analytics: Monitoring on-chain activities can provide valuable insights into user behavior and trends, which can subsequently inform decision-making and strategic planning.
  
  
• Ensuring Regulatory Compliance: For businesses operating within certain regulated industries, monitoring and reporting on-chain activities might be a requirement to prevent money laundering and other illegal activities.
  

Challenges users face in on-chain activity monitoring

Despite its importance, monitoring on-chain activities is not without its challenges. The decentralized nature of blockchains, their complexity, and the unique architecture and data format of each one make it a daunting task to track and analyze on-chain data.

Tatum SDK's address event notification feature

Tatum SDK provides a solution to these challenges with its Address Event Notification feature. This feature sends a webhook notification whenever there's an on-chain event related to a specific address, thereby simplifying the process of monitoring on-chain activities.

Setting up address event notification with Tatum SDK

In this example, we initialize Tatum SDK for the Ethereum network and then use the `notification.subscribe.addressEvent` method to set up an Address Event Notification. This sets a webhook that gets triggered whenever there's a transaction involving the specified Ethereum account.
