About This Dataset
This dataset aims to collect and collate information about activity on the Bitcoin blockchain, with a focus directed at on-chain data which describes the state of the network at any given time. Some examples of these metrics include:
- Total Supply
- Hashrate
- Difficulty
- Block Size
- Transaction Rate
- Mempool Size
- Miner Revenue
- Fear and Greed Index
- Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL)
- Coin Days Destroyed (CDD)
Descriptions of all column headers are included as part of the .csv files in this dataset and are also viewable below.
The current iteration of the dataset leverages the blockchain.com API to provide both daily and half-hourly data about the state of the chain, as well as daily metrics provided by lookintobitcoin.com. Future iterations of this dataset expect to utilise other sources of information as well. Please see the linked Kaggle Notebook under the Provenance section of this page for more information.
Current sources of information include:
- Blockchain.com
- LookIntoBitcoin.com
Please recommend other sources of information that should also be added to this dataset.
Note: The 1st Bitcoin block was mined on 3rd January 2009 by Satoshi, but the second was not mined until January 9th, 6 days later, hence the period of null data for many metrics between 3rd-9th January 2009.
