Activity with NEAR Blockchain Projects and NEAR Horizon

    We are looking for analysts to identify and analyze active projects on the NEAR blockchain. The intention being to gain insights into the current project ecosystem, smart contract interactions and overall recent activity. Determine the total number of active projects on NEAR and specifically identify those on NEAR Horizon, the developer-friendly interface. Define active projects by your own terms and explain your thought process.

    Introduction
    NEAR protocol

    NEAR Protocol is a smart contract capable, public Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain that was conceptualized as a community-run cloud computing platform. Built by the NEAR Collective, NEAR was designed to host decentralized applications (dApps), and strives to compete with Ethereum and other leading smart contract-enabled blockchains like EOS and Polkadot. NEAR’s native token is also called NEAR, and is used to pay for transaction fees and storage. NEAR tokens can also be staked by token holders who participate in achieving network consensus as transaction validators.

    NEAR Protocol is focused on creating a developer and user friendly platform. To accommodate this mission, NEAR has incorporated features like human-readable account names as opposed to only cryptographic wallet addresses, and the ability for new users to interact with dApps and smart contracts without requiring a wallet at all.

    Projects building on NEAR include Mintbase, a non-fungible token (NFT) minting platform, and Flux, a protocol that allows developers to create markets based on assets, commodities, real-world events, and more.

    NEAR Horizon

    NEAR Horizon is an exciting opportunity for founder teams looking to build their startups on the BOS. Startups can interact with NEAR Horizon through a double sided marketplace application that connects founders to each other, and to the people and organizations who are best able to accelerate their growth.

    At launch, the marketplace will include over 15 service providers, 40 mentors and over 300 backers. Founders in the NEAR ecosystem will have direct self-service access to NEAR Horizon, allowing them to make the connections and generate the resources that will help them succeed. In addition to these immediate resources, founders can apply for credits that cover service costs in critical development areas including marketing, legal, back-office finance, product and infrastructure.

    For founders looking for additional support and guidance throughout their Horizon journey, the platform will also be equipped with programs facilitated through a NEAR Foundation partner, providing mentorship, business resources, and a direct line to startup capital. These programs are available through a wide range of industry leading groups including Antler, Brinc, FabricX, CV Labs, Blockchain Founders Group, among others. Regardless of the path founders choose to take, NEAR Horizon will provide them with the support they need when they need it most to accelerate the growth of their Web3 projects built on the NEAR Protocol.

    Methodology
    db_img

    We analyzed the near.horizon.fact_decoded_actions table by identifying the action add_projects and joining it to the near.core.fact_transactions table, which was the largest table of the NEAR protocol.

    Via my methodology theory, we took the address signer_id from Horizon and connected it to the tx_receiver from transactions to find the activity of projects on NEAR that were added from Horizon.

    And for NEAR projects,  we connected the tx_receiver from transactions to the address from dim_address_labels for finding projects that have an activity.

    Additionally, we added fields for changing line or bar charts that we created on our dashboard that were comprised of period and year, The first period was the time period for showing line or bar charts for looking at the movement of NEAR projects's activity, which had a choice in monthly and weekly patterns. The later year , which also retrospects for one and two years,  can select one or two years to find out the activity of that.
