Osmosis Governance: 362 and Beyond
Nov 23, 2022 - Governance in the Cosmos ecosystem has been a hot topic of late - first with Cosmos Hub 82 and now in Osmosis. Osmosis Prop 362 is a vote to decide the fate of the Osmosis Grants Program (OGP). Contention aside, there have been many points and counterpoints, AND a ton of vote switching. Let's take a look at the governance behavior surrounding Proposal 362. On the outside, it seems that a ton of voters have been switching their votes - is this actually true, or is it just big whales/validators causing these swings? What is the average wallet size (in OSMO) of the people voting? Of the people who have changed their vote more than once? Compare and contrast voting behavior of validators and average users in this context. Further, is Prop 362 significantly different than other proposals from an engagement perspective? Analyze voting for 362 vs. other recent governance proposals. https://flipsidecrypto.xyz/drops/osmosis-governance-362-and-beyond-0e2418
World Cup of Bounties( 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 Add any other metrics you think would be useful for someone to understand the different costs of gas by chain to help your dashboard standout. Just like the real thing, only 32 entrants can advance to the tournament stage of the World Cup of Bounties — and receive payment for this bounty. Only the most stellar dashboards submitted will make it to the next round, so get creative with your analysis to stand out ! NOTE: Tournament participants can compete as individuals or as teams. Teams should only submit one dashboard per round and are responsible for distributing payment amongst themselves.
Liquidity Pools - Wallet Composition
Oct 24, 2022 - What type of wallets provide liquidity on Osmosis? Is liquidity concentrated and owned by a small number of whales? Or, are there a diverse range of participants in the LP ecosystem? Do LP composition change based on TVL of the pools themselves?
Cosmos Infamous 82
Dec 12, 2022 - Governance in the Cosmos Hub has gotten spicy, to say the least. Despite gaining the support of some of the most influential names in the space, Prop #82 was rejected after more than 1/3 of voters chose "NoWithVeto". Take a look at governance behavior surrounding Proposal #82 - specifically first time voters and vote switching. Is it possible to identify any key "swing voters" (ie ATOM whales or influential validators) that really turned the tide of the vote? Were any of them first-time voters? What is the average wallet size (in ATOM) of the people voting? Of the people who changed their vote? Further, is Prop #82 significantly different than other proposals from an engagement perspective? Analyze voting for Cosmos #82 vs. other recent governance proposals in the Hub. Has overall governance participation increased or decrease since Prop #82? Finally, have ATOM holders re-delegated their staked ATOM as a result of the vote? Highlight any interesting patterns in re-delegation activity. https://flipsidecrypto.xyz/drops/infamous-82-6d0385
