The Ethereum Foundation merge data challenge ๐ผ.
The challenge ran for up to nine weeks before and after the merge, allowing data analysts to collect and review information before and after the big event. Participants submitted a treasure trove of data and analysis in 45 (!) different blog posts.
Have fun combing through the many insights. Everything is open source, so feel free to open it up and extend/modify your analysis!
