Bounty Brief #81
Bounties on 📊 NEAR,🧪 Osmois, and 🔴Optimism, oh my!
Hey bounty hunters,
Hope you’re ready for a busy weekend. We’ve got a trio of subjects for you to bounty dropping today — five total questions on NEAR, Osmois, and Optimism — plus brand new educational bounty questions coming this weekend, and the return of our open analytic bounties.
Check it all out below, and don’t forget to subscribe to get all our bounties in your inbox each week!
Still want more? No worries — our friends at MetricsDAO have you covered. Check out their Twitter feed or visit their Discord to see all the great analytic challenges and activities they’ve got coming up, including a chance to help Flipside bust bad actors, plus Biconomy analytics, NEAR bounties, and more.
🧪 Osmosis
[Hard] Decentralizing Power: Governance & the Active Set (Part 1)
Bounty: Up to 94.538 OSMO
What type of wallets provide liquidity on Osmosis?
Props 114, 196 & 337 were all passed in an effort to promote decentralization within the ecosystem. How did the voting power of the top 66% of the active set validators change after these proposals were passed?
How did the nakamoto coefficient change after these events? Did time play a factor? Analyze both voting power & the nakamoto coefficient t+30,+60,&+90 days after these proposals.
[Elite] Binance Bonanza
Bounty: Up to 157.563 OSMO
On October 28th, 2022 Binance became the first CEX to list spot trading for $OSMO. Abruptly, OSMO price shot up around 32%. How did this news impact trading on Osmosis. Analyze OSMO trading activity on October 28th and this past week vs. daily & weekly averages. This analysis should occur against two time periods: the 60-day averages & the 60-days prior to the May Terra collapse. Did any other tokens see a spike in trading on Osmosis?
Further, can you trace OSMO liquidity flowing into Binance in the last few days? Centralized exchange listings of OSMO are permissionless so liquidity on Binance should be funded through purchases on Osmosis.
Note: given this question is being released BEFORE the week of analysis in question please structure your queries accordingly to capture the data that will be populated in the future. Please create dynamically updated queries.
📊 NEAR
[Hard] NEAR City Layout
Bounty: Up to 36.645 NEAR
How centralized or decentralized is NEAR, really?
Choose at least two distinct measures of decentralization that can be explored with on-chain data; clearly define those metrics; and outline how NEAR performs based on those metrics.
In your view, is NEAR becoming more centralized or decentralized over time?
You are welcome to draw on any past submissions in your work, but ensure you credit and link to the original creator (bonus points if you shout them out on Twitter).
Grand Prize submissions will also explore these metrics for at least one other blockchain.
🔴 Optimism
[Medium] Inflows + Outflows (redux)
Bounty: Up to 75 USDC
What is the volume of ETH and three stablecoins of your choice that's moved between the Optimism network and the Ethereum network across the bridge?
How has that changed over time? Note any interesting trends or outliers that you see.
[Elite] Bridger Destinations (redux)
Bounty: Up to 187.5 USDC
Where do people go when they bridge to Optimism from Ethereum?
What are the 10 most popular first destinations for users that have just bridged from Ethereum? What has this been for each day in the past month? How has this changed over the last three months? Last six months?
🏈 FLOW
NFL All-Day Tournament [FINAL ROUND]
Bounty: Up to 480.770 FLOW
In this round, you once again have full discretion over what you want to analyze. There's just one requirement: you must use some sort of predictive modeling to analyze any particular aspect of NFL All Day.
I.e. Could you build a model that predicts floor price after a certain designated period for a particular player? Once again, anything is fair game; we’d like to see what you come up with given the requirement of using ML.
BONUS: Post your dashboard on Twitter and tag @flipsidecrypto and any relevant accounts!
Coming Soon™️
Want more? Here are some more bounties coming this weekend.
Saturday
🧑🏫 Skill-building Bounties
[Easy] Tokens sent to ETH Staking contract: Skill-building Bounty 22
Hi! We’re back again with another ETH Staking bounty walkthrough. This time, we’ll look at the deposits into the ETH Staking contract. But instead of looking at ETH deposits, we’ll be looking at ERC20 tokens and ERC721 tokens sent to the contract.
These tokens are essentially ‘lost’ forever. So who has been sending these tokens? And what is the total amount (in USD) that has been sent so far?
Hint: The ETH deposit contract is https://etherscan.io/address/0x00000000219ab540356cbb839cbe05303d7705fa
[Hard] Lido Rewards from MEV-Boost: Skill-building Bounty 21
Hi! We’re back again with another ETH Staking bounty walkthrough. This time, we’ll look at the ETH deposits into the ETH Staking contract.
Using the transfers and traces table, find out how much total ETH has been deposited? Who has been depositing all these ETH? Be sure to check the ‘internal transactions’ tab on Etherscan to capture all transactions.
Hint: The ETH deposit contract is https://etherscan.io/address/0x00000000219ab540356cbb839cbe05303d7705fa
Don’t forget to join us for a walkthrough for these skill-building bounties in our live SQL sessions on discord on November 1. You can also catch the previous live SQL session recordings on our Youtube channel
