While the blockchain itself endures as a collective memory, we, the users, live in a state of amnesia. But the information isn’t lost — we just can’t access it. Most importantly, we can’t act on it. Yet.

The highest gasPrice tx yesterday: sent by Coinone exchange to Synthetix, to transfer 1synth to itself? Price was 7,555,793 Gwei, with a total fee of ~656ETH collected by nanopool. Anyone has any idea why? Typo? (transferring to itself is still confusing) https://t.co/tw9jYKZCWi

6/ For more detail, check out our defi dashboards. @MakerDAO Maker’s SCD loans here: https://t.co/89kXdiN1Pq; Filter @compoundfinance by date to find volume & interest rates here:

5/ The 2nd steepest drop happened the day before, when the total number decreased from $555.5 million to $489.0 million USD. Earlier on March 8th and 9th, it dropped by 7.35% and 8.07% as well when ETH price went down.

4/ We see that the locked amount of ETH hasn’t dropped, with Maker MCD, Compound, Maker SCD wallets’ holding the highest portion. However, the total value of locked ETH in DeFi has dropped by 26.51% in a day on March 12th, in USD units due to the price drop.

3/ We took a closer look at @compoundfinance in the chart below...in the past week, Compound had cumulatively over 2.68m ETH liquidated, likely affected by ETH price drop. On March 12, in one day 1.48m cETH were liquidated.

2/ As ETH fell <$160, a large # of loans went under-collateralized & were being liquidated on DeFi platforms. As outstanding debt hit $4m, @MakerDAO's debt auction was triggered to raise DAI to cover the outstanding obligations. This is when ETH sold for 0 DAI due to lack of bids
