Address reuse charts

Open xaur opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Utilizing dcrdata's indexing infrastructure, it might be possible to calculate the count of addresses that have been used previously, for each block. This can be counted for staking and non-staking tx separately. The numbers can then be put on a bar chart with block and day bins.

This chart can be used to monitor the amount of address reuse over time, which is a proxy to network's overall privacy and security. Specifically, when the ticket-based VSP is rolled out, we should see a pretty decrease of address reuse.
