Quick start:
- Grindery Ping: Browser notification for Ethereum, Arbitrum, Gnosis, Polygon, Celo, Avalanche, BSC, Fantom, Harmony, Cronos, Polygon zkEVM or Moonbeam using Grindery Ping.
- Grindery for Zapier: Setup notification using (even a free!) Zapier account and Grindery. This allows you to send notifications to Slack, Discord, SMS, Email or any other of the 5000 Apps supported by Zapier.
- Grindery Flow: It is FREE and no need for Zapier but less notifications option.
Introduction
In the ever-evolving world of blockchain technology, staying updated with your transactions is crucial. This is especially true if you're using a non-custodial wallet, where you have full control over your private keys and, by extension, your digital assets. However, the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), which powers many of these wallets, isn't designed to send you notifications about your transactions. This is where third-party services come into play.
The EVM, in its inherent design, is a bit 'lazy' when it comes to notifying users about their transactions. It's not that it doesn't want to keep you informed, but rather, its primary function is to process transactions and maintain the state of the Ethereum blockchain. It doesn't have the built-in capability to alert you when tokens are sent or received in your wallet. This is why we need to rely on external services to bridge this gap.
Before we delve into the how-to guide, it's important to consider a few things. What exactly do you want to be notified about? Is it when you're sending tokens, receiving tokens, or both? What blockchains does the service support? What are the notification channels and tools supported by the service? Do you need any specific coding skills to set it up?
Each service has its own strengths and weaknesses, and the best one for you will depend on your specific needs and technical capabilities. In this blog post, we will explore multiple alternatives, providing a simple and precise guide to help you stay on top of your transactions. Let's dive in!
