blocks8 commented 4 years ago

Request from CoinMarketCap: Web link to functional block explorer that contains a rich list or coin holder distribution table that we can use to verify the supply information.

More context and examples:

We kindly ask that you please provide our team with a link to functional block explorer that contains a rich list or coin holder distribution table that we can use to verify the supply information.

Please see the following examples of rich lists: Chainlink (LINK): https://etherscan.io/token/0x514910771af9ca656af840dff83e8264ecf986ca#balances Groestlecoin (GRS): https://chainz.cryptoid.info/grs/api.dws?q=rich Dinerocoin (DIN): https://din.overemo.com/distribution OmiseGO (OMG: https://etherscan.io/token/0xd26114cd6EE289AccF82350c8d8487fedB8A0C07#balances

We can use such information to verify the supply details for STX.

My recommendation for building this:

On the API side, make a new aggregator for this info. This info can likely be pulled only from the accounts table, but with some grouping to only get the most recent info for an account (basically, the row with the highest block_id per address).

The distribution % could be setup to pull in the hard-coded value (from aggregators/home-info), which later would be updated to use whatever we build for https://github.com/blockstack/blockstack-explorer-api/issues/13.

Then, add an API controller method to expose this aggregator's data.

On the front-end, once we have the API built, we'll just create a new page to display this info. I can help with this, as we can likely re-use other components to display info in a UI consistent way.

Obviously, feel free to use your discretion on how you think is best to build this out - I'm just hoping to give some guidance given my context.
