Axelar's Squid Bridge
Apr 13, 2024 - Compare two of the major Axelar bridges' performance: Satellite and Squid
Axelar Token Launch
Sep 28, 2022 - Axelar recently launched its native token, AXL, and we're celebrating with some bounties! For this bounty, analyze the activity within the AXL/OSMO pool (#812), as well as trading activity on the Osmosis DEX. Note any trends or outliers you see.
User Segmentation Analysis
Dec 23, 2022 - Last week we analyzed how users join pools, single or double-sided, which showed that most users join two-sided. This means that most users are already engaged within the Osmosis ecosystem. Let's analyze a typical user journey through Osmosis.
Who's Escaping FTX?
Nov 16, 2022 - Who's managing to escape from the FTX debacle mostly unscathed? Create a single chart showing trading volume on dydx, gmx, and gns to show how people are exiting ftx and entering margin trading dapps. Are they off-boarding through any other methods? Are any particular exchanges, chains, or dapps seeing large increases in new users or trading volume? Note any trends or outliers you see.
$AXL Token Recap
Nov 29, 2022 - Since the $AXL token launch, how have wallets that bought $AXL used it? Are most wallets hodling or trading? What is the average holding period for wallets buying $AXL in the last month? Generally speaking, have users kept $AXL on exchange (in their Osmosis wallet) or have they bridge to other places? Analyze $AXL balances on Osmosis as compared to native on Axelar. How have these balances changed over time?
Axelar & Osmosis: Liquidity on Liquidity
Nov 9, 2022 - Osmosis is far and away the liquidity hub of the Cosmos. Axelar is acting as the primary liquidity bridge into ecosystem. Analyze activity on Osmosis once a user bridges via Axlear's Satellite. What asset do they most use to bridge? Once bridged what do they do next?
Axelar Bridge
Nov 22, 2022 - let's take that a step further and plot out user types and their behavior leveraging Axelar's bridge. How often are people using Satellite - one-time transfers into IBC or more consistent/steady streams? Does this vary based on wallet size? Does this vary based on the ecosystem they are bridging from/to?
axlUSDC: Soon to be forgotten?
Nov 1, 2022 - Recently, Circle announced the implementation of an IBC-native USDC, inserting itself into an ecosystem where axlUSDC currently dominates. Let's look at how pervasive axlUSDC is within IBC. Track Satellite bridge activity strictly related to axlUSDC transfer. Which app-chains have the most/least flows of axlUSDC? Looking at Osmosis specifically, analyze how dominant axlUSDC has become compared to both ATOM and other USDC assets in trading and pools. Hint: You will need to analyze both Axelar tables and Osmosis tables for the second half of this question.
Not Your Keys
Nov 15, 2022 - In wake of the issues surrounding FTX, the old adage "not your keys, not your crypto" reinforces itself. Let's see how this played out during the fallout. Did bridge activity spike over the last 7 days? If so, to what ecosystems? At a more granular level, track net outflows from FTX onto Ethereum. Did any of these outflows flow across Satellite to another destination chain?
Axelar Post-op Interop
Mar 12, 2023 - An analysis to realize the impact of Interop Summit on the volume of Axelar's Satellite & Squid bridges. Also, the post-bridge behavior of Squid bridgers via their swapped asset.
DEX Change (Osmosis)
Nov 12, 2022 - This week has highlighted the need for transparency & decentralization in crypto markets. Let's see how users have reacted to this wild week in Web3. Have behaviors changed? Analyze growth in Osmosis Volumes & User Count this week. Has more money flowed into Osmosis this week compared to the past few weeks/months? Where is this money coming from? Centralized Exchanges? Have wallets moved more into stables?
SVB Bridge Analysis
Mar 16, 2023 - Last week was another eventful week in crypto, as we saw a run on SVB and subsequent bailout by the FDIC. When similar liquidity issues happened surrounding FTX, bridges experienced a surge of volume. Let's see if something similar occurred last week on Axelar's Satellite and Squid bridges. Moreover, Comparing the activity of these bridges with their competitors during the same time frame.
Flow Decentralization Progress
Nov 13, 2023 - The path for Flow has always been progressive decentralization over time. In the last year, various upgrades have enabled network participants to stake Flow, run nodes & validators, and more to drive the chain toward decentralization. Visualize that progress; how many nodes or validators are run on the network, & how does that compare with other chains? How much FLOW is staked, and by how many users? What else can you add to visualize the progress?
Ecosystem Entrances
Oct 25, 2022 - Welcome to Axelar! What better to way to get used to Axelar data than to analyze how people enter the ecosystem? With that in mind, analyze the activity that occurs on Axelar's Satellite Bridge. Since inception, what are the top paths over Satellite. by volume and $ amount? What is the most used token to transfer (USDC, wETH, wAXL, etc.)? Top analyses will show bridging activity since inception and analyze how that has changed over time.
