Progress Report for March
Apologies for the delay. Due to some urgent personal matters I was unable to allocate time sooner.
What progress was made on your grant this month?
A lot of progress was made in the past month.
- Updated the backend to use Siagraph’s own Explored for data about hosts and the network in general, removing all dependencies of Siacentral.
- Host troubleshooter
- the API endpoint is finished and tested.
- Frontend designed and partially implented
- Continued on the financials collecting script. A few examples of data that’s being collected:
- Amount of funds locked in collateral over time (seperated by host/renter)
- Host revenue
- Amount of large renters on the network and an estimate of how much data they store.
- Burned funds over time
- Largest Siacoin holding addresses
- Siafund distribution
- Earned(claimed) revenue by Siafunds over time
- Continued on V2 support
- Large overhaul of the backend and database to include many more stats such as listed above.
- Cleanup static code in the frontend to allow easy transition between V1 and V2
Summarize any problems that you ran into this month and how you’ll be solving them.
Due to the size of the changes, including many database breaking changes, most of the work of the past month is not committed to Git yet. I will be updating Dev in one go this month to see how I can update the live website without much trouble.

What will you be working on next?
- I’d like some feedback from the Foundation if there are any improvements to the troubleshooter. It would be great if I could reach out to someone.
- Finish the front end of the troubleshooter
- Finish V2 support
- Continue working on the financials. A whole lot of data is now being gathered, the next step is converting it into information that can be presented quickly.
