Proposal to integrate Footprint Data Analytics with Balancer

Footprint is a powerful yet easy-to-use analytics tool to uncover and visualize blockchain data.
The team consists of an experienced team of DeFi enthusiasts with diverse backgrounds, including smart contract developers, consumer internet product designers, investment managers from the banking industry, and risk modeling practitioners.
Footprint is committed to transforming data and information into actionable insights, to find value in every movement.

Proposal
This proposal advocates for providing a real-time dashboard on Balancer.
This proposal advocates for recommending Balancer users trying to create dashboards and queries, to develop analytical thinking, and discuss the platform development scientifically.

At first, Footprint will provide a real-time dashboard for Balancer users. Not in a normal way relying on API only, using Bitquery and Airflow, Footprint built three commonly used modules, through conducting protocol-decoding and figuring out input and output of each pool and analyze events behind pools. Footprint can provide automated, intelligent data integrity & data quality verification mechanisms. The system can automatically check the data before data entry, timely warning, and automatic repair.

Then, Footprint will be a tool that existing InstaDapp users can use. Balancer users build out their own dashboards and intensify interest and loyalty towards DeFi and Balancer.

Reson
Users can understand and analyze the real-time data of Balancer and build confidence in the InstaDapp ecosystem.
Footprint can help members of the Balancer community to promote their analytical thinking and properly distribute their assets.
Analyze Pool reports to obtain deeper insight data, optimize DAO’s investment management strategy, and maximize the return of the platform’s investment strategy

Result
Footprint provides customized dashboards to promote the development of the Balancer ecosystem and serve users.
Everyone can be a project analyst and contribute insights to Balancer and DeFi industry.

You can talk with us on Discord and know more about Footprint!

a Curve Dashboard for reference

This is probably more appropriate as a grants application - see here Balancer Community Grants

but more specifically, we have several dune dashboards that cover this kind of thing. What we’re more in need of is a comprehensive solution like Uniswap Info or https://analytics.sushi.com/ - like fork sushi’s and make it for Balancer. Sounds like that is not necessarily what you all do tho.

Hey @Lesley!

I just tried Footprint and created some simple queries. It looks like a really powerful tool for analytics. IIUC you’re using Metabase and Subgraph under the hood, right?

Unfortunately, our Subgraph is not perfect for analytics yet - low liquidity tokens may have inaccurate USD values which impact metrics accuracy. That’s an issue other protocols face as Balancer so we’re looking for ways to improve it. If you have any suggestions, feel free to chime in.
