I really like analyzing blockchain data because it helps me better understand just how different blockchains can be from traditional systems. I've done this for STEEM exchange reports, witness voter engagement, and Steem Monsters sales data. I really wanted to play with the data from http://eosknights.io/, a game which runs completely on the EOS blockchain.
The materials you get in the game can be used to craft items and both materials and items can be traded for EOS using a built-in market. There's a leaderboard there showing the top sales accounts, but I was really curious how much money they were also spending to get into those high rankings. So, I wrote my very first node application to tinker around with the data. You can see the output here:
If you want to play with the code, you can find it here: https://github.com/lukestokes/eos-playground/blob/master/eosknights/README.md
If you play EOS Knights and are curious to see your own numbers, just modify the code to include your account, run it to sync things up and you'll get your answer. If you haven't specified a referral account yet in the game, please consider setting 1lukestokes1 as your referrer. I think we both get 1,000 Magic Water.
I'd love to play with this data more and build out some reports or figure out some statistics (I put some areas for improvement in the readme), but I have too many other more important things to do right now anyway. Either way, this was a fun exercise and helped me learn some node.js in the process.
