On-Chain Basics & Analytics

Read the chain like a story. Learn how blocks, transactions, gas, and analytics tools fit together so you can follow the money and the meta.

Duration

4–6 weeks · Core

Built to be completed while you're in the jungle with the fam — not locked in a LMS.

Curriculum Breakdown

Week-by-week, built to ship.

Each module is a mini-arc: learn just enough, ship something small, and stack proof instead of watching endless videos.

Week 1

  • Blocks, transactions, gas, and explorers — story over jargon.
  • Using AI to translate raw data into plain-English insights.
  • Ship: Explorer-based walkthrough of a transaction end-to-end.

Weeks 2–3

  • Reading and aggregating data via APIs and analytics tools.
  • Prompting AI to help you shape useful dashboards and charts.
  • Ship: Simple dashboard for prices or wallet activity.

Weeks 4–6

  • Combining metrics into narratives (health, usage, growth).
  • Presenting findings in a way non-nerds can understand.
  • Ship: On-chain report or live analytics page you can keep updating.

What You'll Ship

Real projects, not just theory.

You won't just collect lecture notes — you'll leave with links, repos, and on-chain proof you can actually show off.

Ship

Dashboard that tracks prices, gas, or simple protocol stats.

Ship

Dune or explorer queries that answer real questions.

Analytics board you can show in interviews or to collaborators.
