RE: Everything You Need To Track The HIVE Supply

in #hive2 years ago

:)
Yes, and you can do that each month and see the difference .... what you will not see is where that differnce came from ... becouse of the hive complexities, the hive supply can go up or down a lot in a short period of time

Sort:  

Well...

With burning @null, the supply could quickly shrink at any point, yes.

If you look at the combined caps of HIVE and HBD, I see no way it could go up in a short bit, though.

I went through your other posts and found some more context there.
When I first replied, I thought you were unaware of that api function.

The combined, virtual supply of Hive lowered down for more then 20M in 30 days (end of august, behinig of september), from around 415M to 395M... the HIVE only supply lowered down even more, 40M in the same period .... 395M to 355M .... 10% ... conversions has a big impact on this .... these days hive supply is growing again becouse hbd to hive conversions ... Burns to null are small share compared to conversions ....
Meanwhile Splinterlands burned 2M hive for creating account.

This is why I find it interesting tracking the supply

But conversions should not really affect the combined supply (other than some funds being invisible for 3 days?)

There might be some interesting data here though, I agree.

Good luck with it. If I can help with HIVE api, let me know.

Just an idea: You could use coingecko API for HIVE historical marketcaps, I think.
