The Get Token First Buyers endpoint returns the first buyer wallets for a given asset on a specific blockchain. It is ideal for developers building token launch analytics, early buyer tracking tools, holder discovery views, and on-chain research dashboards.

What this endpoint does

With this API, you can:
  • Retrieve the first buyers of a token (early wallets)
  • Query by asset (token contract address) + blockchain
  • Control how many first buyers you return using limit
  • Use early buyer data for launch tracking, distribution analysis, and wallet research
Unlike holders ranking endpoints, this endpoint focuses specifically on the earliest buyers, not the largest holders today.

What you’ll need

  • Basic knowledge of REST APIs
  • A token contract address (asset address)
  • A blockchain value (Solana, Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, etc.)
  • A Mobula API key
Note: All Mobula endpoints require an API key.

Optional:
  • DexScreener (to quickly find token addresses)

When to use Get Token First Buyers

Use this endpoint when you want to:
  • Track the earliest buyers right after a token launch
  • Build a “First Buyers” section in a token dashboard
  • Analyze early wallet participation and distribution
  • Discover early wallets to investigate further (labels, trades, PnL, etc.)
If you want the current top holders, use the Token Holders endpoint.

Walkthrough to Get Token First Buyers

1. Prepare your query

The token first buyers endpoint uses:
ParameterDescription
assetToken contract address to analyze
blockchainChain name or ID
Optional parameters you can use:
  • limit: number of first buyers to return
  • offset: pagination offset (when applicable)
Tip: Use the blockchain field for chains like Solana, Ethereum, Base, and more.

2. Find a token address to test

To retrieve real token data:
  • Open DexScreener
  • Search for any token you want
  • Copy the token contract address from the token page
This address is used as the asset parameter.

3. Identify the blockchain

On DexScreener, check which chain the token is on (Solana, Ethereum, Base, etc.). Use that value as the blockchain parameter.

4. Fill the API form

Once everything is filled:
  • Paste the token address into asset
  • Fill in the correct blockchain value
  • (Optional) set limit if you want fewer or more buyers
  • Click Send

Reviewing the token first buyers response

This endpoint helps you build token launch analytics like:
  • A list of earliest buyer wallet addresses
  • A configurable “first buyers” range (based on limit)
  • Fast early wallet discovery for follow-up analysis (labels, trades, activity, etc.)

Summary

The Get Token First Buyers endpoint gives you early buyer discovery for a token across supported chains, using:
  • Token contract address + blockchain
  • A clean list of earliest buyers
  • Optional limits for how many first buyers you want to retrieve
If you’re building token launch analytics, early holder tracking, or wallet research tools, this endpoint is a strong foundation.
