#### 🕸️ Dev Transfer Map — Visualize Developer Wallet Activity

The **Dev Transfer Map** is one of MoonScan’s most powerful tools, allowing you to **visually track token movements** from the dev wallet to other addresses. It helps you detect potential **suspicious patterns**, such as mass distribution, stealth dumps, or team dumping behavior.

**🔍 What You’ll See:**

* **Interactive Network Graph**
  * A central **dev wallet** (in blue)
  * Dozens or even hundreds of **recipient wallets**&#x20;
  * The more connections, the more widespread the token distribution&#x20;
* **Detailed Transaction Table**
  * **From / To**: Sender and recipient addresses
  * **Token**: The token being transferred
  * **Value & Amount**: USD value and token quantity
  * **Type**: Send or receive action
