FLOW Network Decentralisation Analysis

    Let's dive into this dashboard which is designed to provide you with key insights into the decentralization of the Flow Network, including metrics related to the distribution of validators, staking activities, and rewards. By monitoring these metrics over time, you can gain a better understanding of the growth and decentralization of the Flow Network.


    Flow Network Decentralization Analysis Dashboard is designed to provide you with key insights into the decentralization of the Flow Network, including metrics related to the distribution of validators, staking activities, and rewards. By monitoring these metrics over time, you can gain a better understanding of the growth and decentralization of the Flow Network.

    In this dashboard, we focus on key metrics such as the distribution of validators, staking activities, and rewards distribution over time. These metrics provide a comprehensive view of the network's decentralization, shedding light on the participation of different node types, the level of engagement in staking, and the incentives that drive network growth. By tracking these metrics, you can assess the health and long-term prospects of the Flow Network, as well as identify potential opportunities for participation and investment.



    We have derived the metrics for this dashboard from the on-chain data available in flipside tables. We've crafted SQL queries to extract key metrics such as unique staking validators, staking actions, reward distribution, and node count over time. To ensure the accuracy and consistency of our data, we've used LEFT JOINs, WHERE clauses, and date truncations to filter and aggregate the data as needed. The dashboard is designed to present the data in a clear, concise, and easy-to-understand format, allowing you to monitor the decentralization of the Flow Network effectively.


    Tables in Use:

    • FLOW.core.fact_transactions
    • FLOW.core.ez_staking_actions
    • FLOW.core.dim_validator_labels
    • FLOW.core.fact_events

  1. Validators:
  2. Nodes in the Flow Network responsible for validating transactions and securing the network. Validators can be categorized into different types, such as collection, consensus, execution, verification, and access nodes.

  3. Staking Actions:
  4. Activities related to staking in the Flow Network, including staking tokens, unstaking tokens, and withdrawing rewards.

  5. Rewards:
  6. Incentives given to validators and delegators for participating in the network and helping secure it. Rewards are distributed in the form of $FLOW tokens.

  7. Decentralization:
  8. A key characteristic of blockchain networks, where the control and decision-making power is distributed among multiple participants, reducing the risk of single points of failure and promoting network resilience.

  9. Node Count:
  10. The number of nodes participating in the network at a given time, grouped by validator type or project name.

  11. Percentage Change:
  12. The relative change in a metric over time, expressed as a percentage. This can help identify trends and patterns in the data.

    By understanding the terminology and methodology used in this dashboard, you'll be able to interpret the data effectively and gain valuable insights into the decentralization of the Flow Network
