  1. Metrics

Resolutions

All metric data in our system is reported in UTC time and always refers to the start of an interval. The resolution of a metric determines both the frequency at which it is updated and the time window over which the data is aggregated or calculated.

Hourly Resolution (1h)

  • Example: 2025-01-22 14:00 UTC

    • Includes data from: 2025-01-22 14:00 UTC to 2025-01-22 14:59 UTC

Daily Resolution (1d)

  • Example: 2025-01-22 (00:00 UTC)

    • Includes data from: 2025-01-22 00:00 UTC to 2025-01-22 23:59 UTC

Weekly Resolution (1W)

  • Example: 2025-01-20 (00:00 UTC)

    • Includes data from: 2025-01-20 00:00 UTC to 2025-01-26 23:59 UTC (i.e., Week 4)

Monthly Resolution (1M)

  • Example: 2025-01-01 (00:00 UTC)

    • Includes data from: 2025-01-01 00:00 UTC to 2025-01-31 23:59 UTC (i.e., January 2025)

Resolution refers to:

  1. The frequency at which data is updated: How often new data points are recorded.

  2. The time window over which data is aggregated: The span of time that a metric's value represents.

For example:

  • The number of active addresses with a daily resolution shows the total number of active addresses over the 24-hour time window. A new data point is provided once a day.

  • Similarly, a metric with a weekly resolution aggregates the data over a 7-day time window and provides a new data point once per week.

This same mechanism is applied analogously to all other resolutions (hourly, monthly, etc.).

Some metrics, such as the number of addresses with a non-zero balance, reflect the current state of the blockchain rather than an aggregate over a time window. For such metrics:

  • The value refers to the state at the end of the interval.

  • Example: A daily metric for non-zero balance addresses reported for 2025-01-22 refers to the state of the blockchain at 2025-01-22 23:59 UTC.
