Val’s Dune Work
Who is the proposed retrospective award recipient?
What specific project or work is the retrospective award in recognition of? Please detail what the project or work entailed and the duration over which it took place.
This retro is for all of Val’s past dune work. This is primarily https://dune.com/rp_community/lst-comparison.
Highlights include:
- A massive query comparing APY outcomes for rETH, stETH, and cbETH. This includes both the initial work and maintenance (eg, when Lido v2 rolled out).
- Maintaining/updating the rETH Exchange Rate over Time and Discount/Premium plots
- The metamask staking deposit query in repsonse to a community requesting
Beyond that dashboard, Val has done some standalone queries that get used here and there:
- Vault TokenTransfer https://dune.com/queries/1264376 is helpful when confirming team transfers to MCs
- A frax withholding query has been used for community discussion https://dune.com/queries/1957937/4769122
The lst-comparison dashboard is work that has been referenced routinely in the RP discord since August of 2022. A quick search turned up 74 hits on the url (plus another 206 from RocketWatch, which links to it in the current_reth_apr command), plus derivatives from it are used regularly (plots directly, “this has gone up X amount” in a discord comment or twitter post, single queries, forks, etc). Val has been responsive to feedback from the RP community and sought out feedback.
Are the subjects of this award entirely open source (MIT, GPL, Apache, CC BY license or similar)? If not, which parts will not be, why, and under what license will they be published?
No specific callouts beyond the general Dune ToS
