City Amidst the Storm
Nov 16, 2022 - Provide a thoughtful analysis of how NEAR is weathering the market turbulence that occurred as a result of FTX’ insolvency. You can include baseline measures, e.g. token price, transaction volume - but go beyond that and apply your analysis skills. Choose and define at least 2 measures of ecosystem health, and assess how NEAR is performing on those metrics between the week of 11/7 and 11/14.Grand prize winners will also compare NEAR to at least one other Layer 1 blockchain ecosystem (Solana, Algorand, Flow, etc.), using the 2 measures provided. The goal is to gain a better understanding of how both NEAR and other ecosystems respond to market conditions that heavily affect one of their peers (in this case, Solana). Some examples of health metrics: Unstaking - how many people are pulling up stake NFT sales vs. buys and if it’s materially changed (are people dumping their NFTs for capital) Stable % of trade activity — are users fleeing or buying the dip?

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

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

How do validator votes change over the course of a proposal? Share any interesting voting statistics you find. Examine any voting propositions here (example: Prop 82) as a use case to explore these questions. https://flipsidecrypto.xyz/drops/cosmos-delegation-680d6b✅✔
