Hey guys I've been doing a bit of research into The Graph (GRT token). I've been thinking of switching to them to improve on our Uniswap integration.
We'll have to pay per query (which sounds expensive) but actually we'll save money in the long run. Right now we're indexing A LOT of data (The network recently reached over 5GB of data). Also querying Uniswap data is very slow and painful in the manner we're doing it.
The plan is to integrate into The Graph and utilize GraphQL to query against Uniswap data. This should save us A LOT of money in the long run and ensure the ecosystem scales without worrying about storage sizes.
Doing this will save us a lot of infura calls and ensure our stuff scales well into the future! It should be a pretty seamless integration, I will keep you updated as we get The Graph and Datamine Network connected together.
Don't forget once we connect our network to The Graph we can have access to cross-blockchain analytics against many projects they have https://thegraph.com/explorer/
I am kind of in the middle of the trend analytics but I think spending some time on this integration will give us data savings. It will also allow us to start thinking how Datamine Network can be integrated into other dApps through The Graph
Hey guys, I've been working on a new metric to help identify dormant validator count. We currently have 690 validators but only 239 of them minted in the past 365 days.
What's also interesting is that 239/690 of the active minters control 78.9% of the locked-in DAM. Meaning 78.9% of all DAM is used for FLUX in the past year!
This is a very useful metric to understand how active the ecosystem is used for minting. After 2 years 78.9% of DAM is active and minting!
Planning to get this up on production out Tomorrow. 🔥
