Decrease in Active Addresses Alert - DEPRECATED

THIS ENDPOINT HAS BEEN DEPRECATED AND WILL NO LONGER BE ACTIVELY MAINTAINED, UPDATED OR SUPPORTED

Alert Definition

Alerts if the Active Addresses of a given block are lower than its 100-block predecessors. Active Addresses represent the sum count of unique addresses that were active in the network (either as a destination or source of a ledger change) that block. All parties in a ledger change action (source and destination) are counted.

Interpretation

A consistent decrease in Active Addresses may be caused organically by seasonal decreases in demand, or may be a result of more concerning circumstances. If, for example, validators are censoring a group of addresses, blocks would not be fully empty, but Active Addresses would decrease.

Potential Root Causes

Natural drop in demand for block space, which tends to be seasonal. Potential censorship at the block producer level.
