Top level economic stats #189

Open ilblackdragon opened 4 years ago

ilblackdragon commented 4 years ago

We need many different economics stats, but here are the most important:

[x] Total supply over time
[ ] Epoch reward for given epoch
[x] Amount of fees burnt over time (#186)
[x] Gas spent / gas limit over time (also across shards?) (#122)
[ ] Gas price over time
[ ] State size over time (also across shards?)

Supply breakdown:

[x] Liquid tokens
[ ] Staked tokens
[x] Locked tokens
[ ] ? unclaimed / etc tokens

Note that locked tokens can be staked. Unclaimed tokens from airdrops, etc.

Validator stats:

[ ] Number of validator seats
[x] Validator seat threshold
[x] Amount of staked / delegated tokens, ratio to total supply
[ ] Reward %, inflation %
[x] Number of blocks until next epoch

@ilblackdragon Could you, please, match the RPC data to the items you listed? For example, let's take "Total supply over time": there will be total supply exposed via Genesis Config https://github.com/nearprotocol/nearcore/pull/2109, but where should we learn about the "over time" part? I guess, it is a monotonic function, so we can compute it based on the block height, but the one who implements this issue needs to learn how to do that.

For general stats:

Total supply -> block.header.total_supply
Epoch reward -> (0.05 / (total_blocks_in_the_year / epoch_length)) * block.header.total_supply
Fees burnt -> block.header.rent_paid + block.header.gas_price * sum(for each chunk -> chunk.header.gas_used)
- Gas spent / limit -> sum(for each chunk -> chunk.header.gas_used) / sum(for each chunk -> chunk.header.gas_limit)
Gas price -> block.header.gas_price
State size -> ??? @bowenwang1996 rent_paid / rent_cost?

@kcole16 it seems that we need design for this thing. I imagine that we need dashboard changes here and at the same time we don’t want to bloat it, which is a hard task (maybe we should have a carousel of various stats or just have a toggle to show more stats while be default we only show the generic ones)
