LFG Alarm vs Arkham

Arkham and LFG Alarm both alert you when crypto wallets move, from very different starting points. Arkham is a blockchain intelligence platform that labels wallets with real-world entities, such as exchanges and funds, and sends transfer alerts by email, Telegram or webhook. LFG Alarm is a social alarm clock for iPhone and Android that rings like an alarm when a wallet, a FOMO trader or a GMGN KOL makes a trade over a floor you set, or a token hits your price, and can ring your friends at the same time. We make LFG Alarm; this is a fair comparison as of October 2026.

Where Arkham is stronger

  • Entities, not just addresses. You can set an alert on a labelled entity, like an exchange or a fund, instead of hunting for every address it uses. That is a real time saver and something LFG Alarm does not offer.
  • Deep filters. Counterparty, token, amount, USD value and chain let you describe exactly which transfers matter.
  • Webhooks. Arkham can send alerts to your own systems, which suits analysts and builders.
  • Research. It is a full intelligence platform, built for working out who is behind a wallet and where funds went.
  • Well rated apps. Its mobile app arrived in January 2026, and its Google Play listing shows 4.8 from 865 reviews as of 16 October 2026.

Where LFG Alarm is different

  • It rings. On Android it rings as a full-screen alarm, even on Do Not Disturb. On iPhone it arrives as a time-sensitive alert with the alarm's own sound, which can come through Focus but respects the silent switch; keep the ringer on. In Arkham's alert docs we found no mention of alerts that ring through silent mode or keep ringing until answered.
  • Traders by handle. Follow a FOMO trader (buys over $5k, $10k or $25k, every sell, an optional thesis) or a GMGN KOL (over $100, $500 or $1k), with no address needed.
  • A simple floor for wallets. Paste a wallet on Solana, Ethereum, Base, BNB, Arbitrum or Robinhood Chain and pick $1k, $2k, $5k or $10k (default $5k). A trades alarm stays quiet for 15 minutes after it rings.
  • Price alarms. Ring when a token reaches a price, a percent move or a multiple. See crypto price alarms.
  • Friends wake together. Share an alarm and everyone on it is rung at once.
  • No wallet connection, nothing to sign, no trading in the app.

An entity or a wallet

The clearest way to choose is to ask what you are following.

An organisation. Zara wants to know when a well-known exchange moves large amounts of a token to or from its hot wallets. That exchange uses many addresses, some she does not know. Arkham lets her set one alert on the labelled entity, filtered by token and USD value, sent to her email and Telegram. LFG Alarm cannot do that: Rocco watches one address at a time.

One wallet. Zara also found, through Arkham, a single Base wallet that a fund appears to use for early buys. That one she wants as an alarm. She pastes it into LFG Alarm, picks Buys over $10k, and keeps it private. When it buys on a Saturday morning, her phone rings while she is at the market, and she checks the token on Arkham from her phone before deciding anything.

Arkham told her who the wallet probably is. LFG Alarm made sure she heard when it moved.

Which one should you get?

  • Arkham if you want to know who is behind a wallet, follow an exchange or fund as a whole, or send detailed transfer alerts to Telegram, email or a webhook.
  • LFG Alarm if you know the wallet or trader you care about and want a real alarm, for you and your friends, when they make a big trade.

They work well together: research in Arkham, then put an LFG Alarm on the wallets worth waking up for. Arkham has also published an explainer on crypto copy trading, if that is what brought you here. For the wider field, see Best crypto whale alert apps.

Make it in the app

  1. Copy the wallet address from Arkham.
  2. In LFG Alarm, on Alarms, tap 📈 Onchain (on lfg.gm, Create, then Onchain) and paste it.
  3. Pick Buys, Sells or both, and a floor of $1k, $2k, $5k or $10k.
  4. Keep it private or share it with friends, then tap That's it.

Wallet alarms from an AI agent are coming; for now, make them in the app or on lfg.gm.

questions people ask
Can LFG Alarm follow an exchange or a fund?

Not as an entity. LFG Alarm watches a single wallet you paste, or a trader by FOMO or GMGN handle. Arkham's entity alerts are the better fit for following an organisation.

Does Arkham have a phone app?

Yes. Arkham announced its Intel mobile app on 20 January 2026, and it is on the App Store and Google Play.

Is Arkham free?

The app is free. Arkham says alerts have rate limits but does not publish the numbers, and we could not confirm paid tiers.

Can a pasted wallet alarm be public?

No. A pasted wallet alarm can be private or shared with friends. Trader and token alarms can be public. See [how trades alarms work](/wiki/trades-alarms).
