11. Snapshot Tool
Introduction
The D3fenders Snapshot Tool helps NFT founders and project teams clearly understand who holds their NFTs - and what those holders are doing with them -at the exact moment decisions need to be made.
Whether you are preparing an airdrop, building a reward system, creating an allowlist, or protecting your community from abuse, accurate holder data is essential. The Snapshot Tool provides a fast, reliable way to generate that data across multiple blockchains without requiring custom scripts or deep technical knowledge.
At a glance, teams can see:
Who currently holds NFTs
How many tokens each wallet owns
Which NFTs are actively listed on marketplaces
How ownership is distributed across the collection
Why Accurate Snapshots Matter
In Web3, many issues around airdrops and rewards don’t come from bad intent — they come from incomplete or misleading data.
Without a reliable snapshot, teams risk:
Rewarding wallets that are actively flipping NFTs
Missing loyal holders due to indexing gaps
Over-distributing tokens or rewards
Creating confusion or distrust within the community
The D3fenders Snapshot Tool removes this uncertainty by combining on-chain ownership data with real-time marketplace listing awareness, giving teams a clearer and more actionable view of their community.
Built for Real-World Conditions
Most snapshot tools assume ideal infrastructure: perfect indexers, single-chain collections, and marketplace-only visibility.
D3fenders Snapshot was built for real environments:
Multi-chain collections
Collections identified by contracts or update authorities
Marketplaces with delayed or partial data
Founders who need clarity, not black-box automation
Manual verification and explicit workflows are supported by design, not treated as failures.
Designed for Founders and Community Teams
While the Snapshot Tool is production-grade under the hood, its purpose is simple: give non-technical teams the same clarity developers rely on.
You shouldn’t need to write scripts, manage APIs, or stitch together CSV files just to understand your holders. The Snapshot Tool is built to be:
Easy to use
Repeatable
Transparent
Export-friendly
