EVM - 3. Merry Christmas?
Jan 14, 2023 - The holidays and New Year are often chaotic in the crypto and defi space, as users make a spree of new transactions and wallets as they receive (and give) some cash and coins as holiday gifts. How has this activity impacted the broader Ethereum ecosystems? Are users creating new wallets or buying tokens with their newfound holiday wealth? Are they staking all these new tokens once they get them? Or are they selling tokens to pay for their own gifts and holiday travel? Choose an Ethereum chain, fork or Layer 2, such as BSC, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, or Mainnet. Create a dashboard that captures activity across metrics such as new users onboarding, token prices, NFT prices, or any other notable trends or events for your chosen chain. Feel free to examine multiple chains or ecosystems in your dashboard.
