Hello Nansen Explorers!
Our team has been working hard in August and we are pleased to report yet another month of amazing updates, so without further ado, let's dive right in!
Product Updates
Our product and design teams have been working tirelessly to bring you the best user experience blockchain analytic companies have to offer and we’re excited to summarize the monthly highlights.
User Growth Metrics
This month has been one of the best on record for us:
- Daily Active Users grew by 177% from July.
- Average Days Active per user was up 7% from the prior month.
Introducing an All-New Home Screen
Delivering our users the true state of what is happening is front and center to our mission. We revamped our home screen to collect all of the best pieces of Nansen and put them right in front of you - constantly updating and evolving as the environment changes.
This includes:
- A preview of our most popular dashboards so you can have a lay of the land right at your fingertips.
- Real-time tracker of gas consumption across the network so you can pinpoint what is causing the spikes.
- The new home screen is available for all users regardless of subscription!
Gas consumers have been lighting up the scene this month as NFT drops have caused gas spikes well into the quadruple digit gwei. The Nansen home screen was a timely tool to spot those movements. Finding exactly what is causing the jump, you can then move to wallet profiler to learn more about the contract. This has become the premier tool for NFT discovery and research.
Binance Smart Chain (BSC) Support - Hot Contracts & Smart Alerts
Nansen now supports our third blockchain in production! VIP and Alpha subscribers can now utilize our network switch and navigate to Binance Smart Chain. Included in our first version are Hot Contracts and Smart Alerts.
Note: Certain features are currently available to VIP and Alpha tier members only. For more information on our plans and pricing, please click here.
For Hot Contracts, we have identified commonly known protocols like PancakeSwap and ApeSwap - so you can spot the top trending opportunities within those platforms. Clicking on the pop out link brings you right to the contract within BscScan.
Multichain Overview
We’ve renamed our Polygon dashboard to ‘Multichain Overview’ and have now included support for BSC overview:
And BSC vs ETH:
These are publicly available dashboards that will help paint a better picture of the overall activity within the BSC ecosystem.
Uniswap v3 Overview & Pair Profiler
We now offer a Uniswap v3 dashboard that:
- Highlights the top pairs by volume.
- Spotlight smart money activity on liquidity pools so you can see top liquidity pairs and smart money activity.
- Click into any single pair to see more information about how liquidity is distributed and which fee class most users are opting for.
- You can also compare how the majority is distributing their liquidity vs smart money.
