Tracking USDC Depeg Using Analytics Tools, BLUR Mobile Launch, Web3 Referrals, On-Chain Analytics, NFT Tooling, and more!
💡 Intro
🥳 Happy Monday!
Crazy weekend with all the USDC, SBV, and general bank closure fallout. Hope everyone is safe!
While people are discussing what happened with the USDC depeg and SBV failure, we want to cover another aspect: how to track events using on-chain tools while an event like the USDC depeg happens.
Anyone watching USDC friday night saw USDC lose its $1 peg and drop to a low of ~$0.87 overnight.
Price tracking platforms like Coinmarketcap, Coingecko, etc are enough to track price fluctuations in real time. But what if you want to check transaction data so you know whats happening before prices adjust?
For on-chain data analytics, Nansen is currently our favorite tool. Nansen has smart labels which make it easy to tell whats actually going on and what to look for (the CEO below):
Another major tool that helps is Dune Analytics. It’s free + many users have created dashboards to track specific metrics (like USDC mint/burn ratios)
Next time a major crypto event happens and you want to watch it in real time: checkout these 2 tools!
Today: Blur launched a mobile experience that lets traders browse and buy NFTs on their mobile devices.
This puts them closer to matching OpenSea’s functionality overall, as OpenSea already has a mobile app.
