The data is curated to reflect the outcomes of governance decisions up to a specified date.

Polkadot Number of Referenda by Origin​

The Polkadot Number of Referenda by Origin chart delineates the sources of governance proposals within the Polkadot network. It quantifies the initiatives by their points of inception, offering a clear distribution of referenda across different origins. In the context of Polkadot, Origin refers to the track through which the proposal has been introduced. This can include public proposals submitted by the token holders, council motions, or treasury proposals. Each track has its own procedural requirements and reflects a different aspect of the network’s governance model.

Monthly Tokens Voted by Direction / Monthly Voting Power by Direction​

The Monthly Tokens Voted by Direction and Monthly Voting Power by Direction charts provide a dynamic view of the Polkadot community's voting behavior over time, breaking down the distribution of tokens and voting power across various voting options. These charts reveal the community's sentiment trends, showcasing the balance between support ('Aye'), opposition ('Nay'), and nuanced positions ('Split' and 'SplitAbstain'), both in terms of token quantity and the weighted influence of votes. By tracking these metrics, stakeholders can gauge the evolving priorities and concerns within the Polkadot ecosystem.

Opengov Vote Types​

  • Standard Aye - Available with 0.1-6x conviction
  • Standard Nay - Available with 0.1-6x conviction
  • Split - Allocate votes between (Aye, Nay) with 0.1x conviction
  • splitAbstain: Allocate votes between (Aye, Nay, Abstain) with 0.1x conviction

Recent Major Delegation Changes​

The Recent Major Delegation Changes chart visualizes significant delegation transactions within a specified timeframe. It highlights two primary types of delegations: 'First Time', where a delegator is delegating to a validator for the first time, and 'Switching', where a delegator changes their delegation from one validator to another

Recent Major Swing Votes​

The Recent Major Swing Votes chart presents a crucial analysis of voting dynamics within the Polkadot network, focusing on the instances where voters have changed their stance on specific referenda. This shift, known as a 'swing vote', is particularly significant when the voter wields a substantial number of tokens, with the potential to sway the outcome of a referendum. The chart meticulously records these pivotal moments, detailing the voter's identity, the magnitude of their tokens, and the direction of their swing—whether towards Aye, Nay, or `Abstain.

Whale Voters​

The Whale Voters chart illuminates the participation of prominent token holders in Polkadot's governance decisions. It showcases the influential votes cast by individuals or entities with significant token stakes, their voting preferences, and the corresponding voting power. This chart elucidates the sway of large stakeholders in shaping the outcome of governance referenda, highlighting the distribution of their voting power in recent decisions.

Awakened Whale Voters​

The Awakened Whale Voters chart visualizes the activity of influential participants in the Polkadot governance system, commonly known as "whales". These are voters who have not participated in the voting process for at least 90 days and have now cast a vote with a significant amount of tokens. The chart displays their voting behavior, the referenda they are involved in, and their voting conviction, using interactive elements that link to external references for detailed blockchain data. This allows for an in-depth look at the re-emergence of major stakeholders in the decision-making process.
