10 Year Expected Supply, Adj (native units)

Definition

This metric is an improved version of the legacy SplyExpFut10yr metric as it is better suited for use-cases that require a high degree of standardization, such as multi-asset indexes. As part of the v4.7 release, Coin Metrics has taken additional steps to harmonize the treatment of expected future supply across different token models. We have implemented these improvements in a this new metric; SplyExpFut10yrCMBI.

Name	MetricID	Unit	Interval
10 Year Expected Supply, Adj (native units)	SplyExpFut10yrCMBI	Native units	10 years

Details

• Expected future supply is computed by extrapolating the behavior of the currently active monetary policy.

• The CMBI version of this metric takes extra steps to guarantee heuristics are uniformly applied to various cryptoassets.

• Only implemented and programmatically defined supply inflation levels are considered. Any proposed or speculative inflation changes are not included until they are implemented in the source code as historically delays and governance processes have hindered such changes in a protocol’s monetary policy. Even if future changes in monetary policy are announced, they are only taken into account once they are enforced by the protocol.

• Unless lost, burned, or vested on-chain beyond 10 years, all current on-chain supply will be deemed liquid supply in 10 years time. Coin Metrics has taken this approach to account for the unpredictability associated with determining what holders of restricted supply will do over the next 10 years. e assets, estimating this number relies on too many assumptions (staking ratio, etc..), in which case it is not computed.

10 Year Expected Supply (native units)

Definition

The sum of all native units counting current supply and including all those expected to be issued over the next 10 years from that day if the current known continuous issuance schedule is followed. Future expected hard-forks that will change the continuous issuance are not considered until the day they are activated/enforced.

Name	MetricID	Unit	Interval
10 Year Expected Supply (native units)	SplyExpFut10yr	Native units	10 years
10 Year Expected Supply (native units)	SplyExpFut10yr	Native units	10 years

Details

• Expected future supply is computed by extrapolating the behavior of the currently active monetary policy.

• Even if future changes in monetary policy are announced, they are only taken into account once they are enforced by the protocol.

• For some assets, estimating this number relies on too many assumptions (staking ratio, etc.), in which case it is not computed.

API Endpoints

Expected Future Supply metrics can be accessed using these endpoints:

• timeseries/asset-metrics

and by passing in the metric ID's SplyExpFut* in the metrics parameter.

Asset metrics

get

Returns requested metrics for specified assets. Results for block by block metrics (1b frequency) are ordered by tuple (asset, height, block_hash), all other metrics are ordered by tuple (asset, time). You can change the sorting using sort query parameter. Supported output formats are json (default) and csv, use format query parameter to override it. To fetch the next page of results use next_page_url JSON response field or x-next-page-url CSV HTTP header if present. If multiple metrics are requested in the same time the strict policy for partially available metrics among requested ones is applied:

Authorizations

Query parameters

assetsstring[]Required

Comma separated list of assets. Use the /catalog-all/assets endpoint for the full list of supported assets or specify asterisk (*) in order to get metrics for all supported assets.

metricsstring[]Required

Comma separated metrics to request time series data for. Information on all available metrics can be found on page https://coverage.coinmetrics.io/asset-metrics-v2. Use the /catalog-all/metrics or /catalog-all/assets endpoint for the full list of supported metrics per asset.

Example: ["AdrActCnt","BlkHgt"]

frequencystringOptional

Frequency of the metrics. Supported values are 1b (block by block), 1s (one second), 1m (one minute), 5m (five minutes), 10m (ten minutes), 1h (one hour), 1d (one day), 1d-ny-close (one day at New York close time). Please refer to the /catalog/metrics endpoint for the full list. Use the /catalog-all/assets endpoint for the full list of supported frequencies per asset-metric pair.

Default: 1dExample: 1b

statusstring · enumOptional

Which metric values do you want to see. Applicable only for "reviewable" metrics. You can find them in the /catalog/metrics endpoint.

Default: allAvailable options:

start_timestringOptional

Start of the time interval. This field refers to the time field in the response. Multiple formats of ISO 8601 are supported: 2006-01-20T00:00:00Z, 2006-01-20T00:00:00.000Z, 2006-01-20T00:00:00.123456Z, 2006-01-20T00:00:00.123456789Z, 2006-01-20, 20060120. Inclusive by default. Mutually exclusive with start_height and start_hash. UTC timezone by default. Z suffix is optional and timezone parameter has a priority over it. If start_time is omitted, response will include time series from the earliest time available.

end_timestringOptional

End of the time interval. This field refers to the time field in the response. Multiple formats of ISO 8601 are supported: 2006-01-20T00:00:00Z, 2006-01-20T00:00:00.000Z, 2006-01-20T00:00:00.123456Z, 2006-01-20T00:00:00.123456789Z, 2006-01-20, 20060120. Inclusive by default. Mutually exclusive with end_height and end_hash. UTC timezone by default. Z suffix is optional and timezone parameter has a priority over it. If end_time is omitted, response will include time series up to the latest time available.

start_heightinteger · int64Optional

The start height indicates the beginning block height for the set of data that are returned. Inclusive by default. Mutually exclusive with start_time and start_hash.

end_heightinteger · int64Optional

The end height indicates the ending block height for the set of data that are returned. Inclusive by default. Mutually exclusive with end_time and end_hash. This parameter is disabled for Community users.

start_hashstringOptional

The start hash indicates the beginning block height for the set of data that are returned. Inclusive by default. Mutually exclusive with start_time and start_height.

end_hashstringOptional

The end hash indicates the ending block height for the set of data that are returned. Inclusive by default. Mutually exclusive with end_time and end_height.

start_inclusivebooleanOptional

Inclusive or exclusive corresponding start_* parameters.

Default: true

end_inclusivebooleanOptional

Inclusive or exclusive corresponding end_* parameters.

Default: true

min_confirmationsinteger · int32 · max: 99Optional

Specifies how many blocks behind the chain tip block by block metrics (1b frequency) are based on. Default for btc is 2 and 99 for eth. For example, a min_confirmations of 0 means metrics are being calculated for the block at the tip of the chain (the latest block received by our node) whereas a min_confirmations of 6 means that metrics are being applied to the block that is 6 blocks behind the chain tip (i.e., the 7th block if the chain tip is block 1).

timezonestringOptional

Timezone name for start_time and end_time timestamps. This parameter does not modify the output times, which are always UTC. Format is defined by TZ database.

Default: UTCExample: America/New_York

page_sizeinteger · int32 · min: 1 · max: 10000Optional

Number of items per single page of results. The value of this parameter is ignored if the endpoint supports the format parameter and its value is set to json_stream.

Default: 100

paging_fromstring · enumOptional

Where does the first page start, at the start of the interval or at the end. The value of this parameter is ignored if the endpoint supports the format parameter and its value is set to json_stream.

Default: endAvailable options:

sortstring · enumOptional

How results will be sorted. Metrics with 1b frequency are sorted by (asset, height, block_hash) tuples by default. Metrics with other frequencies are sorted by (asset, time) by default. If you want to sort 1d metrics by (time, asset) you should choose time as value for the sort parameter. Sorting by time is useful if you request metrics for a set of assets.

Default: assetAvailable options:

limit_per_assetinteger · int32Optional

How many entries per asset result should contain. For example, this combination of parameters assets=btc,eth&metrics=ReferenceRate&limit_per_asset=1 returns the latest ReferenceRate values for btc and eth.
