Flipside's World Cup Kick Off: Gas Guzzlers
Nov 16, 2022 - Welcome to Flipside's World Cup of Bounties. To celebrate the arrival of the FIFA World Cup, we'll be holding a tournament to determine the top bounty hunters in the world across several blockchains, projects, and more. This year's theme is cross-chain comparisons. To qualify for this tournament, create a gas tracking dashboard that looks at gas usage by a chain over the last couple of months. Include Ethereum, Solana, Algorand, Flow, NEAR, Optimism and Osmosis, and add any other chain you think is worth noting. Breakout the following metrics by a chain in the dashboard Total amount USD of gas spent on the chain in the last 30 days. Average cost of gas in USD per $1,000,000 of liquidity transferred on each chain 30 days Average block gas price hourly and daily The top 10 addresses on each chain that spend the most on gas in the past month Daily amount spent on gas by chain tracked over the last 30 days Chart gas spend to network token price

NEAR - 16. Secrets of the NETH-erworld
Mar 1, 2023 - The day that many citizens of the City of Near had been waiting for finally arrived late last year. As of December 19, 2022, NEAR is compatible with MetaMask, marking the first time a non-EVM chain has offered compatibility with the popular ETH wallet. This was made possible by a smart contract called NETH. Now that the contact and ensuing compatibility has been live for nearly three months, it's time to dive deeper into the data. Create a dashboard monitoring NETH's adoption and usage, paying special attention to any notable trends, outliers, or other events.
