Dungeons & Data

The purpose of the Dungeons & Data (DnD) campaign is to empower a wide community of ‘Citizen Data Scientists’, analysts and enthusiasts who can quickly and effectively analyze curated datasets with little-to-no coding and create valuable apps and case studies.

The multi-week campaign consists of activities which include:

• Running daily quizzes
• Running week-long puzzles
• Developing protocol specific content pieces
• Developing graphic designs
• Executing data visualization tasks
• Executing data science tasks
• Developing case studies and apps

While this campaign is focused on developers interested in blockchain technologies and applications, it also includes activities for non-developers or general retail communities.

The general campaign website is: https://dnd.covalenthq.com/

Challenges

DnD campaign challenges are broken down into Community (i.e. non-developer) and Data scientists challenges.  

Community

Community challenges include:

• Artist Challenge - Create an infographic piece, explanation graphics or even an art piece about the protocol.

• Writer Challenge - Create and publish an original article on one of the following topics:

  • What problems can be solved with the protocol?
  • Why is blockchain data analysis important?
  • Why is transparency important for blockchain
  • Open topic - pick up your own topic to write about (must be relevant to the protocol)

• Daily quizzes - time sensitive, daily, general info quizzes

• Puzzle Challenge - fun puzzles involving encoded messages, riddles and clues.

Data scientists

Challenges geared towards data scientists include:

• Data visualization - Pick a dataset provided by the protocol and create an interesting visualization.

• Data science - conduct analysis and produce a case study on provided data around areas such as:

  • Median LP liquidity provided
  • Slippage rates
  • Whale concentrations
  • Impermanent loss
  • Flash loans

• Data app - Build a MVP for an app using protocol data. For example, https://aavewatch.com/
