Details

For UTXO chains, the heuristics used are:
- Early spend: outputs spent one hour or less after being created are not counted
- Round numbers: if one output has much more precision than the other outputs in the same transaction, it’s not counted. For example, if a transaction creates 2 outputs, one of 1.00000000 BTC and one of 0.2561278 BTC, the second one would not be counted.
- Self churn: outputs that have the same address as any of the inputs addresses are discounted
- Also removed are cold wallet shuffles (when an exchange changes their cold wallet addresses) and other artifacts such as noise generated by early Bitcoin applications like Satoshi Dice
For account chains, this metric is computed as the sum number of native units received by accounts, whose net balance did change in that hour.

Asset-Specific Details

For assets that have opt-in privacy features, like ZCash, it only takes the non-private activity.

Example

If in the same hour:
- ** Account A sends 50 units to B
- ** Account C sends 50 units to A
- ** Account B sends 50 units to E
- ** Account D sends 49 units to B
Then:
- ** Account A has a net balance change of 0, received 50
- ** Account B has a net balance change of -1, received 99
- ** Account C has a net balance change of -50, received 0
- ** Account D has a net balance change of -49, received 0
- ** Account E has a net balance change of +50, received 50
*** Unadjusted volume is 199
*** Adjusted volume is 149 (B: 99, E: 50)

Xfer'd Days Destroyed

Details

Days destroyed is a measure of time * money.
When an unspent output is spent, the time it stayed unspent (in days) is multiplied by its value, this metric measures the sum of these coin days spent in a given day.
Only full days are taken into account (2.5 days count as 2 days)

Only available for UTXO chains.
For assets that have opt-in privacy features, like ZCash, it only takes the non-private activity.

API Endpoints

Token Transaction metrics can be accessed using these endpoints:

timeseries/asset-metrics

and by passing in the metric ID's TxTfrVal* in the metrics parameter.

Asset metrics

Returns requested metrics for specified assets. Results for block by block metrics (1b frequency) are ordered by tuple (asset, height, block_hash), all other metrics are ordered by tuple (asset, time). You can change the sorting using sort query parameter. Supported output formats are json (default) and csv, use format query parameter to override it. To fetch the next page of results use next_page_url JSON response field or x-next-page-url CSV HTTP header if present. If multiple metrics are requested in the same time the strict policy for partially available metrics among requested ones is applied:
