Avg. Price of Storage isn't very useful #28

Open travisperson opened 5 years ago

Due to the value of storage being such a small number, when large values are set for asks the listed average far exceeds the more realistic value for the storage price.

I think we need to find a better way to calculate this value.

Also, it appears that these values probably shouldn't be included in the calculation either. Though I think this is a bug on the go-filecoin side, as expired entries probably should be filtered out by default.

To be useful to a miner, they might want to understand the current market of asks - "what price should I be offering for my storage right now?"

Perhaps there could be a viz of a market depth graph of asks summarizing the output of go-filecoin client list-asks. Optionally, within that the median ask could be marked and shown above it, assuming median's more useful in case there's a skewed distribution.

As for time epochs like Day, the average number of blocks per 24 hours might be a useful stat on the dashboard for miners so they can create better storage asks.
