I'm planning to post updates here. All feedback and suggestions are appreciated. Website: https://dashradar.com GitHub: https://github.com/Antti-Kaikkonen/DashRadar Features Block explorer Blockchain graph visualization Charts Nodes Data explorer
Updated! Live mode. Click the red "Start live" button and new transactions should appear soon. Added icons for PrivateSend create denominations transaction PrivateSend transaction
Small update: You can now use https://dashradar.com (encrypted connection). TODO: redirect http to https Changed layout of icons Added favicon (just a dash icon for now)
Just removed caching from addresses because it was causing certain connections to be missing in the live mode. I think live mode looks better now.
You've got both TX and IX? Played around with one of these before, didn't get IX working but always wanted to see what PrivateSend looked like on it
I tried to add InstantSend support but it isn't working in the live mode yet. I think I know why though. The instantsend lock messages are usually broadcasted after the transaction so I would need to listen to the lock messages. I will let you know when I get it fixed. Also I can't fix InstantSend for old transactions because the information isn't stored in the blockchain I think.
Sorry, I wasn't clear there, I meant both inputs and outputs, I'd tried it with the insight websocket API and it only broadcast outputs so everything was disjointed, PrivateSend transactions where obvious but they weren't connected. I see now you've got both and there's a nice nest of tangled up furballs forming as PrivateSend does its thing Really nice seeing that, it doesn't leave a whole lot of room for doubt that PrivateSend transactions are untraceable. Good luck showing InstantSend, looking forward to watching this develop
Yeah at some point i deployed a broken version with that problem and it seems you happened use it at the same time Edit: Current problem is that it sometimes displays a transaction with wrong icon (dash logo). I don't know why but I'll try to find out..
Yeah, I'd seen that here too, no idea what might be causing it though :/ Another I get is with poor network connectivity, for some reason the missed transactions when network traffic is stalled seem to come together as a single transaction when it's re-established. I was getting the same before, iirc it was from insight but I didn't get as far as seeing whether they could be detected and queried and I doubt it's much of a problem for most.
Update: Bugfixes (switched from webgl graphics to svg graphics because webgl implementation of VivaGraph library was buggy for images) Added icon for coinbase transaction Please let me know if you find any bugs. Edit: Another update: You can now change settings by clicking the settings icon in top right corner.
I made a tool for analyzing/visualizing private send transactions. It currently finds the all the shortest paths to create denominations transactions behind a set number of mixing transactions. It's not ready for public release but you can preview the results by importing the JSON data in one of the links below. Exactly 3 rounds Exactly 4 rounds (slow to import, might lagg) Both links are for the privatesend transaction 59d51690d4b56ddbf1e393fa8d3a49bcfc3247f270f36be3b6ee411802666cba Other updates: Fixed exporting to json PrivateSend Create Denomination transactions that also created PrivateSend collateral inputs were not recognized as Create Denomination transactions. Edit: improved stability and speed of importing JSON data.
Updated Mixing transactions are now different color for different denominations. Added list views for currently displayed transactions and addresses Addresses and transactions can be selected and selected nodes ares highlighted in the graph. TODO: Add ability to select nodes in the graph by right clicking. Maybe add rectangular selection tool. Addresses and transactions can be sorted by their properties by clicking the column header. TODO: Add more properties Can perform group actions on selected addresses/transactions (delete all, expand all, etc)
It really depends on where your data is stored, what kind of visualizations you are planning to build, hosted vs an open source solution etc. https://artjoker.net/services/blockchain-development-services/
Status update: I'm currently developing a backend project to replace or at least complement the insight-api-dash that I'm currently using. I'm currently importing the dash blockchain to a neo4j graph database. The reason I'm doing this is that it will hopefully allow me to develop some high performance analysis tools. I'm particularly interested in tracking PrivateSend transactions to determine how much anonymity is there depending on the number of rounds, number of inputs, different denominations etc.
Is there a donate button??? I would also love the option of sound effects at each transaction with a choice of perhaps 4-6 sounds: wind chimes simple bell old fashioned cash register bubbles popping I have noticed that if I have Dashradar on a tab in Chrome, it doesn't run if it's not the active tab. Is that a Chrome thing or a DashRadar thing? No big deal either way. Cool tool. Carry on.
Haven't had much time to develop this but here is something that you can play with if you want: http://dashradar.com:7474/browser/. With that you can query the dash blockchain using the neo4j cypher query language. Here is some example queries that you can try executing: Count the number of transactions between blocks 600000 and 700000: Code: MATCH (tx:Transaction)-[:INCLUDED_IN]->(b:Block) where (b.height > 600000 AND b.height < 700000) RETURN count(tx); Count the number of unspent outputs: Code: MATCH (n:TransactionOutput) where NOT (n)-[:SPENT_IN]->(:TransactionInput) return count(n); Return the distribution of how many previous mixing transactions mixing transactions have for a given denomination. Only consider transactions that happened after block 600000. Denominations(pstype=denom): (7=0.01), (6=0.1), (5=1.0), (4=10.0) . Code: MATCH (tx:Transaction {pstype:7})-[conn:PREVIOUS_ROUND]->(:Transaction)-[:INCLUDED_IN]->(b:Block) where b.height>600000 with tx, count(conn) as connection_count with connection_count, count(tx) as tx_count return connection_count, tx_count ORDER BY connection_count; To get an idea of the database schema you can click the icon on the top left. As you can see the database does not currently contain information about addresses. Just blocks and the transaction graph. The database is currently not automatically updated. To find the last block height in the database you can run Code: MATCH (b:Block) RETURN b.height ORDER BY b.height DESC LIMIT 1;
Update Added sound effects to live mode as suggested by @solarguy Sound can be disabled in settings Added "max transactions in live mode" to settings to prevent lag when running live mode for a long time Oldest transactions are removed when this limit is reached Added more stuff to information page/tab Used technologies Link to this thread Contact email Donation address
Update Check out https://dashradar.com/cypher. It's related to my previous post where I was talking about neo4j and cypher queries. In that page you can write (or use someone else's) cypher queries and instantly display the results in a line, bar or pie chart. You can share your query with others by copying the link next to the execute button. The example on the page shows how to get average privatesend transaction amount in dash for each day. Currently first column of the results is used for x axis in line chart and labels in bar and pie charts. Second column is used for y axis / label values. If the first column name is 'date' then the column values are assumed to be unix timestamps and are converted to dates in the charts. It's still a work in progress. In the future I'm planning to make the individual results (table, line chart, bar chart, ...) shareable with a similar link. I might also make sharing images to charts possible with a similar link (better for embedding in pages, forum posts, etc). Also better support for multiple data series isplanned. I moved the neo4j browser from http://dashradar.com:7474/browser/ to https://1.dashradar.com:7473/browser/. You can view that page to view the database chema. The database is read-only, it's not automatically updated and there is a 60 second execution limit for the queries to avoid someone accidentally jamming the server.
Regarding the last update I made some example queries that might help anyone to get started creating their own: Average block size over time Total number of privatesend transactions and total number of regular transactions after block 600000 Total number of each denomination mixing transactions after block 600000 The first one is better suited for line chart but bar/pie charts work better for the 2 other ones.
I've noticed that querying certain stuff from the database is quite slow and the queries can timeout (over 60sec). As a result I've decided to add hourly data points that represent the total value of things since the first block. It would contain for example the following things: timestamp total number of blocks total number of transactions total number of inputs total number of outputs total output volume (in duffs) total fees volume (in duffs) total block size (in bytes) total transaction size (in bytes) In order to calculate to calculate a value (e.g. total fees) in a time period (e.g. day) you could just find the starting hour and ending hour and then subtract the value of starting hour from the value of the ending hour. This should hopefully allow certain things to be queried over 100x faster. No ETA on this update. It's just a plan.
Update Added cumulative data to the neo4j database Added nodes with 'BlockChainTotals' label. For each of these nodes there exists a block with the same height and time properties BlockChainTotals height time tx_count input_count output_count total_block_size total_transaction_size total_generated_sat total_output_volume_sat privatesend_tx_count privatesend_mixing_10_0_count privatesend_mixing_1_0_count privatesend_mixing_0_1_count privatesend_mixing_0_01_count All properties except height and time are cumulated values since the genesis block. Now it is also possible to generate image link from the charts Below are some examples how to use BlockChainTotals to generate graphs. Historical unspent output count Transactions per day Transactions per day (2017) Coins generated per day There is probably still many bugs. It currently only works well for time series data where first column in result must be called 'date' and represent epoch timestamp. Second column column should be a number. Third column (optional) is a series label that can be used for displaying multi series charts. I will add example with 3 columns later.
For some reason the embedded images don't seem to load. Here is the same images as links: Historical unspent output count Transactions per day Coins generated per day Edit: It seems that the embedded images are not loading because it takes a little bit too long to generate them and the image proxy on this forum doesn't like that. When I limited transactions per day to 2017 it works.
Nice! I created few graphs based on your examples (mostly a shameless copy-paste with few tweaks ) and it's very interesting to see some trends. On a side note, I think most common/popular requests deserve a dedicated page/website like https://blockchain.info/charts with static previews
