Thanks for sharing your thoughts, fiatjaf, umbrel, hatch
btw. you mentioned stellarchain above. have you seen my project https://steexp.com ?
Yeah, your project definitely has some interesting features, for example, direct access to operation and effect endpoints and raw JSON response view. I have a few questions, going to write a separate post on the steexp SBC thread.
I think range is definitely more useful, because you can show more charts ? like account balance over time would be super useful for me
Cool, requested charts will be available in a day or two.
I don't need multi-lingual, but if you decide to go for it I can help with Russian. Remember that it will greatly slow down your ability to do updates, when you want to change button label you will have to think about contacting 10 people to prepare translations in advance for each supported locale.
That's true, it won't work that way. I personally like the "en-first" approach, which implies that every element has at least "en" translation, and it is shown by default if the requested locale for that element not found.
Yes, age is good, size of the orderbook (at least against XLM) and spread, not just number of trades, but volume of trades
Great hint regarding the orderbook depth and spread! I will add both to the rating formula. As for volume, it's very complicated so far. Without Offer Created/Updated/Removedeffects I am unable to calculate cross-rates (for example, on BTC-JPY trades) or recreate an orderbook at the time of trade. However, I can use information from XLM-{asset} trade effects to show indicative prices and trade volumes.
The markets for each asset would be the most useful information to me (besides what's already deployed, which is great). I mean: for which other asset this asset have been or can be exchanged.
I can implement a pie-chart with percentage and volume of trades on all asset pairs where at least one trading effect occurred. Will it suit you?
As for exchange possibility, it seems to me that all available exchange options could be found through the find payment paths endpoint, if you know the source and destination assets. However, the list of all active exchange pairs may be interesting too. I will look into it.
Once all planned features will be added (in a few months or so), I'm going to introduce public API with detailed documentation, so everyone will be able to use it in their own projects. Therefore, if you need any additional statistical data or some advanced charts, let me know and I will add requested endpoints if it will be possible.
Again, thanks for the feedback, guys!
