💰 TON Games Revenue 💰

If your bot uses Telegram Stars for payments, you’ll withdraw your earnings via Fragment. These transactions happen on-chain and can be tracked!

As you already know, we identify and label addresses associated with projects on TON, including GameFi. For some of them, we can estimate their Telegram Stars revenue, as well as the TON and Jettons they’ve received.

DeDust team shared some insights on how to make great and usable dashboard. Will share them later this week. Use them to win next time.

Next challenge will be much harder.

How to Create a Great Dashboard – DeDust Interview

I asked the DeDust team to share the most common mistakes they saw in Dune Dashboards submissions. Avoid these, and you’ll increase your chances next time.

TL;DR:
The goal of any analytics is clarity and ease of perception.
A great dashboard should be compact, simple, and not misleading.

❌ Common Mistakes:

▪ Not following the full requirements – if something is requested in the brief, it must be on your dashboard.

▪ Unnecessary tables/graphs or duplicating the same data in different formats (e.g., a bar chart and the same data in a table).

▪ Two smaller dashboards are worse than one well-structured one – all key information should be in one place.

▪ Fewer tables, more charts – graphs make data easier to interpret.

▪ Inconsistent group colors across graphs – the same DEX should have the same color in all visualizations.

▪ Inconsistent layout in similar sections (e.g., Daily Report vs. Monthly Report) – these should be visually identical, differing only in the time period.

Creating a dashboard is a creative process.
Asking for feedback from friends is a great way to refine its clarity.

Next week we’ll run the next contest with one of TON DeFi projects. Any guesses which one? 😳

For example, you can use cosmograph.app/run to visualize this graph!

My macbook is old enough, so I filtered the data to keep only transfers >$10k (500k rows).

Will share the filtered data in a chat. You can unzip it and have your own graph with a simple drag-n-drop. Try it yourself!

🤔 The Dune Dashboards contest has wrapped up, here are the winners!

Our joint competition with TON Foundation has concluded, and we're thrilled to announce the best works:

🏆 1st Place – dune.com/tubaecci/dedust
🥈 2nd Place – dune.com/vaitar/dedust
🥉 3rd Place – dune.com/msu/dedust

Selecting the winners was a challenge due to the high quality of many submissions. After careful consideration, we've decided to award additional prizes of $100 in $DUST tokens each to 7 more participants, bringing the total number of prize winners to 10.

We were pleasantly surprised to receive 41 submissions, which exceeded our expectations. We are very grateful to everyone who participated and wish you the best of luck in future contests hosted by TON Data Hub. Your contributions are helping to enhance DeFi on The Open Network.

Sincerely,
DeDust Team

I just got a message from Ton Society that our SBTs were issued and were sent to the participants who submitted a valid DeDust dashboard or a label.
