32. [Hard] THORChain Wallet Address Growth by Time Segment

    What has been the rate of THORChain growth in terms of the number of new THORChain addresses being created? How do the following time periods compare? 1. Pre-hack (before July 16, 2021) 2. Pre-Network Halt (Sep 24 - Nov 11) 3. Post-Network Halt (Nov 18 - present) Hint: use liquidity_actions, swaps, bond_actions, transfers, and upgrades to get all the THORChain addresses

    Introduction

    So.. I took the first entry of every address that entered into the 5 database tables and plotted them out into the chart below.

    It shows when addresses did its first transaction on THORChain.

    Analysis

    1. Pre-hack (before July 16, 2021)

    About 100 new addresses were created on an average day with spikes that go up to about 1k.

    2. Pre-Network Halt (Sep 24 - Nov 11)

    After the network resumed from the eth bridge hack, there was a huge spike of new addresses. People could be switching their thorchain wallets, or it could have been new people entering the ecosystem due to the news. Thorchain was then stopped shortly around Nov 11 and you can see that there were no new wallet transactions between Nov 11 and 18.

    3. Post-Network Halt (Nov 18 - present)

    Addresses tapered off yet again with a daily new transaction count of about 100 wallets a day.
