[IMPORTANT-TASK]: Store futures testnet competition data for later reference #365

Closed artdgn closed 2 years ago

artdgn commented 2 years ago

Testnet trading data can be very important for developing and testing our planned frontrunning mitigations.

@liamzebedee suggestion in discord:

I think running our own OVM geth archive node would suffice for this? We also have the trade data stored in our subgraph, though I think a full node would be prudent

Ideally, if we need it in several months, we should have the ability to review transactions and oracle price updates for at least the the top frontrunners traders.

Two more points:

  1. Another option raised by @leckylao was to ask Optimism folks to make a HD snapshot of one of their running nodes. Not likely they have time for that though,

  2. When we do have a snapshot from them or from our own node, we can then run some local block explorer like Ethernal (https://blog.tryethernal.com/ethernal-is-going-open-source/) to inspect the transactions when we need it.
