May 29, 2022 - In this dashboard, we will analyze the top ERC-20 $LDO token holders. From there, we will also investigate who those addresses belong to and how do they obtain $LDO (bought vs airdropped).
Liquidation Response
Oct 2, 2021 - Borrowing is general has always been risky. Borrowing on Anchor also has it's risks. There are smart contract risks where the protocol can be hacked and funds on it can be siphoned out. There's also risk of liquidation specifically when borrowing. To borrow on Anchor, one must put some collateral in PoS assets such as $LUNA or $ETH (and more assets coming soon) and then you only will be able to borrow $UST max 50% worth of the provided collateral. Liquidation happens when the value of your collateral drops and causing your borrowing to go to more than 60% of collateral value. When this happens, your collateral will then be auctioned to bidders. Then you will lose all your collateral assets because you did not repay your loan. This is the TLDR version on how liquidation happens, for more info you will have to refer the Anchor docs.
Redelegations Dashboard
Aug 16, 2021 - One of the main activity on Terra ecosystem is staking where delegator delegates their LUNA to validators to earn interests. Delegator can either; DELEGATE - delegate their LUNA token from wallet to validator REDELEGATE - change validator as in move the staked LUNA from one validator to another UNDELEGATE - undelegate the staked LUNA back to wallet. In this dashboard, we will focus on redelegate activity of delegators. People redelegate when they want to staked their LUNA tokens to other validators.
StETH-ETH Pool
Sep 21, 2021 - stETH is the token you received when you staked your $ETH on Lido. By doing this, your staked $ETH will become liquid and you can still used it for other participation. $stETH is your staked ETH includes the interests that accrued daily. On Curve Finance, you can provide liquidity using your $stETH on stETH-ETH pool. First we have to identify the contract address for stETH-ETH pool on Curve Finance. Providing two same tokens into liquidity is a smart way to beat the impermanent loss because both pairs are of the same value.
Validator Voting vs. Investor Inclinations
Apr 28, 2022 - In this dashboard, we will analyze the last 5 governance proposals and see the distribution of voters between retail investors vs validators for the votes in favor.

Ethereum gas price has been absurd recently and it will be no surprise if users left Ethereum for good especially with how good other EVM-compatible alternative such as Avalanche, Solana, Fantom are.
Delegator Delegation Distribution
Aug 22, 2021 - Delegate, undelegate and redelegate is term used in staking activity on Terra Station. Delegate: stake $LUNA token from your Terra wallet to a validator of your choice. Undelegate: withdraw your $LUNA token from validator. This will cause your token to be subjected to 21 days of locking period. Redelegate: change validator without having to withdraw hence no need for 21 days locking period. In this dashboard, we will see how many validators does Terra delegators delegate to.

Airdrop Price Impact
Oct 3, 2021 - Airdrop is a big part in crypto. Who doesn't like free stuff and for devs, it is the best way to get new users to use their new protocol or project. Some airdrop worth much more than others especially genesis airdrop like the Dydx protocol giving away >$3000 worth of their native token for users who swapped $1 worth on their dex and not worth as much; like the upcoming $ORION airdrop which estimated around $7.50 worth per 100 $LUNA staked. In this dashboard, we will take a look at how airdrop can impact the price of the token.

TERRA 126: Liquidation Risks
Dec 25, 2021 - On Anchor, one thing that you have to keep out for is your LTV (Loan-to-Value) ratio. LTV is basically your loan/collateral worth and it cannot exceed 60%. Once the LTV exceed 60%, your collateral ($bLUNA or $bETH) will be auctioned to other who want to pay for premium. Using Orca by Kujira, you can also participate in buying discounted $bLUNA. In this dashboard, we will take a look at some liquidation risks that can happen if you're a degen using Anchor Protocol.
Levana Meteor Shower Overview (Free Square)
Nov 15, 2021 - Levana is a protocol which main product is leveraged $LUNA token, 2xLUNA which is the first in Terra ecosystem. Their way of raising fund was quite interesting where they kinda combine NFTs and DEFI. They organized a meteor shower event for which users can donate any amount of $UST and got a chance of winning an NFT which has a chance to get Dragon egg. It has many tiers and top 10 donors from every shower are confirmed to get rarest tier dragon egg. The donations will be used to bootstrap the 2xLUNA token soon. In this protocol, we want to see the relationship between their participation in meteor shower and their LUNAtics score

Terra Fees & transaction volume correlation
Aug 7, 2021 - From Terra docs, Gas is a fee that is added on to each transaction to avoid spamming. Validators set minimum gas prices and reject transactions that have implied gas prices below this threshold. At the end of every block, the compute fees are disbursed to the participating validators pro-rata to stake. In this dashboard, we will focus on the gas fees being paid for every swap transactions. We will also try to find the correlation of terra fees with the swap volume transactions.
CRV Token Uses
Sep 19, 2021 - Curve Finance is a decentralized exchange (DEX) where users can swap their tokens in a decentralized way. It also act as liquidity aggregator where users can earn interests by providing liquidity to various pool available.

Inflows and Outflows on Polygon
Aug 21, 2021 - Polygon has been very popular lately. With introduction of many protocol, there has been surge of assets flowing into Polygon. Ethereum's current proof-of-work consensus mechanism, Ethereum suffers from network congestion, slow transaction speeds and low throughput. This has often led to high transaction fees (gas fees) for users. Polygon explore new option by offering a platform where developers and consumers benefit from L2 scaling solutions. Polygon Bridge is one way to transfer fund from Ethereum network to Polygon network. In this dashboard, we will take a look at the inflow and outflow of USDC and ETH from Ethereum to Polygon.
IL Insurance
Apr 12, 2022 - THORSwap, the main DEX of THORchain has a special feature that makes providing liquidity on THORSwap very attractive; which is the Impermanent Loss Insurance where the liquidity you provided will have no impermanent loss (terms and conditions applied). Impermanent loss is when you provide to an LP which is usually in a pair of different asset (even when you provide asymmetrically because the protocol will split the amount into two assets), when one of the asset's price go up, it will sell some to buy the other asset so that it maintains 50-50 distribution among the pair. Hence, you will lose some money when compared to you just holding the 2 assets in your wallet. The insurance will be paid whenever you remove the liquidity. So, in this dashboard, we will take a look at the metrics of withdraw LP and how many of them received the IL insurance. (Data taken for transaction on April 10th and onwards).

Solana TPS
Feb 20, 2022 - One of the main selling thing on Solana is its transactions per second-TPS which is a metrics that can be used to measure how fast a transaction can be done in one second. High TPS = better network management and less congestion. As a result, this gives it a higher payment efficiency and thus, a higher chance of adoption, institutional or individual. In this dashboard, we will take a look at some TPS data of Solana, focused on 1st February onwards.
TERRA: 131. Wormhole Users Persona

Sushiswap User LP Inflows
Nov 24, 2021 - Sushiswap is a decentralized exchange that uses liquidity pool as assets which are available for users to swap. So, users can add liquidity, usually in a pair of same amount, for example WETH-USDC and receive Sushi LP (SLP) tokens which represents your share of the pool. Every time another users use the pool to swap from $WETH to $USDC, 0.25% is taken from that trade and distributed to LP providers. In this dashboard we will take a look at number of users who has provided liquidity for the first time in the last 90 days.
