Comparing Volumes of Exchanges and Assets

Products: Market Data

Summary: This notebook shows how Market Data Feed can be used to analyze exchange volume patterns at several levels: 1) examining aggregate volume across all exchanges using Exchange Metrics, 2) analyzing the relative share of specific assets’ volume within an exchange with Market Candles, and 3) investigating trade sizes (i.e. retail vs. institutional) using Market Trades data.

Use Cases: Trading, Research

Personas: Quant Trader, Market Analyst

Getting Started With Futures Data

Products: Market Data

Summary: This notebook steps through various derivatives-specific data types across multiple aggregation windows. First, investigate futures open interest for BTC, broken down by exchange. Then examine individual liquidation trades and their effect on price. Finally, view USD-denominated liquidations aggregated at the exchange level, plotted against the total BTC open interest.

Use Cases: Trading, Research, Asset Management

Personas: Quant Trader, Market Analyst, Fund Admin

Aggregating Options Data

Products: Market Data

Summary: This notebook shows the basic usage for Coin Metrics options data. First, we show how to find the options markets in our coverage. Then, we calculate volume and open interest. The open interest data is further broken down by puts and calls to look at the put/call ratio in the options markets examined.

Use Cases: Trading, Research, Risk Management

Personas: Quant Trader, Market Analyst

Examining Orderbook Depth

Products: Market Data Feed

Summary: This notebook shows how granular bid/ask data (from our hourly order book snapshots) can be aggregated into a +/-2% liquidity profile to quantify and visualize the amount of available liquidity in individual crypto asset markets. The same methodology is applied to generate order book depth charts in our weekly State of the Market report.

Use Cases: Trading, Research, Risk Management (Liquidity)

Personas: Quant Trader, Market Analyst

Aggregating Orderbook Depth to Create Liquidity Metrics

Products: Market Data

Summary: This notebook showcases our new aggregated USD bid/ask depth metrics, allowing users to quickly quantify market liquidity without needing to manually sum up order book snapshots. The notebook steps through the process of selecting relevant BTC fiat & stablecoin trading pairs from the catalog and creating a market-wide view of BTC order book liquidity.

Use Cases: Trading, Research, Asset Management, Risk Management

Personas: Quant Trader, Market Analyst, Operations/Risk Analyst

Creating Custom Network Data Metrics Using ATLAS

Products: Network Data, ATLAS

Summary: This demo walks through the various ways ATLAS can be used to construct custom metrics not currently available in Network Data Pro. Examples include 1) basic block-by-block metrics (i.e. block-by-block stablecoin transaction counts), 2) cross-asset metrics (i.e. transactions where USDT + USDC are moved simultaneously), and 3) entity-based metrics (i.e. stablecoin flows to DEX pools).

Use Cases: Trading, Research

Personas: Quant Trader, On-Chain Researcher

Applying Different Types of Marketcap Metrics

Products: Network Data

Summary: This notebook steps through Coin Metrics various methodologies for indexing the total market capitalization of major crypto assets. Three market cap metrics are highlighted: verified on-chain market cap (CapMrktCurUSD), estimated market cap (CapMrktEstUSD), and free float market cap (CapMrktFFUSD). The notebook discusses asset coverage and trade-offs for each, and shows how the metrics can be used to quantify the total crypto market cap.

Use Cases: Research, Asset Management, Passive Trading

Personas: On-Chain Researcher, Fund Admin, Trader

Comparing the Dominance of Mining Pools Using ATLAS

Products: Network Data, ATLAS

Summary: This demo shows how ATLAS v2’s extra_data field can be used to extract a block’s “coinbase signature,” which is often used by mining pools to denote blocks they’ve mined. By transforming the data in this field and combining it with other block metadata (i.e. is it an “empty block,” or does it contain transactions?), we can derive a number of interesting mining pool performance and profitability metrics.

Use Cases: Research (Bitcoin Mining), Risk Management (Hashrate Concentration)

Personas: On-Chain Researcher, Risk Analyst

Using Staking Metrics to Get Yield and Staked Supply

Products: Network Data

Summary: This notebook demonstrates how metrics sourced from the Ethereum Execution Layer (ETH) and the Consensus Layer (ETH_CL) can be combined to create a holistic picture of the Ethereum staking ecosystem. First, we walk through the process of calculating an “estimated validator yield” based on the number of active validators and the average amount of priority tips. Then, we determine the total amount of staked vs. unstaked supply by examining the ETH Staking Contract.

Use Cases: Asset Management, Research, Operations/Risk Management, Passive Trading

Personas: Fund Admin, On-Chain Researcher, Operations/Risk Analyst, Trader

Granular Insights On Chain Using Hourly Network Data Metrics

Products: Network Data

Summary: This notebook highlights capabilities enabled by Coin Metrics’ new suite of hourly on-chain metrics. First, we examine the relationship between ETH tx count & “fee burn,” quantifying the amount of Ether removed from circulation during peak periods of activity. Then, investigate the response of BTC fees to slow block times, with median tx fee exhibiting a clear dependence on the mean inter-block interval.

Use Cases: Trading, Research, Risk Management

Personas: Quant Trader, On-Chain Researcher, Risk Analyst

Exploring Options, Open Interest, and Volatility Data

Products: Market Data

Summary: This demo shows how to use options market metadata contained in our Catalog/Markets endpoint with the Implied Volatility endpoint to construct “Volatility Smiles,” a popular way of visualizing the relationship between IV and strike price across various contract expiries. A similar analysis is performed in State of the Network 169, in which volatility smiles are examined prior to the ETH “Merge” to proof of stake.

Use Cases: Trading, Research

Personas: Quant Trader, Market Analyst

Calculating Total Value Locked in Liquidity Pools using DEX Data

Products: Network Data, ATLAS, CM Prices, DeFi

Summary: This demo shows how ATLAS can be used to monitor imbalances in decentralized exchange liquidity pool contracts. First, leverage the Reference Data endpoint to extract a list of contract addresses for liquidity pools of interest. Then, use ATLAS to query for balance updates in the pool address. Finally, multiply the supply held in the pool contract by the Coin Metrics Reference Rate to calculate USD-denominated pool TVL.

Use Cases: Research, Trading, Risk management

Personas: On-Chain Researcher, Quant Trader, Operations/Risk Analyst

Calculating DEX Liquidity Pool Fees and Volumes

Products: Network Data, ATLAS, Market Data, DeFi

Summary: This notebook explores Coin Metrics’ coverage of decentralized exchanges like Uniswap & Sushiswap. First, examine a list of available liquidity pools, supplemented with contract addresses in the catalog’s DEX-specific fields.
