This allows teams to make sure they remain compliant and block any bad actors from interacting with their platform. Quick Setup: 1. Connect your Gsheets account 2. Input the contract address you want monitored 3. Input the chain the contract address is deployed on 4. Drop in the Gsheet Spreadsheet URL where you want the data to be logged 5.
