22. [Elite] Network Shutdown
This dashboard looks at user activity before and after the THORChain network shutdown that occurred from November 12th, 2021, to November 17th, 2021. THORChain is a protocol which allows for the conversion of assets from one blockchain to assets from another, through its native token RUNE. For example, a user could swap BTC for RUNE and then swap RUNE for ETH, effectively swapping BTC for ETH, all on the THORChain platform. The November shutdown was due to a consensus halt, meaning the nodes could not agree on the same state. Normal function on the platform resumed on the 18th. The below visuals look at multiple metrics of user activity before and after the network shutdown.
