Crypto On
Daily on-chain fundamentals for Bitcoin AND Ethereum in one clean panel - computed directly from the public-domain blockchains (via Google BigQuery public datasets, not a restrictive wrapper API). BTC: transaction count, block count, block size, fees, on-chain volume, average transaction value, outputs created / inputs spent, and ACTIVE ADDRESSES. ETH: transaction count, gas used, average gas price (gwei), ETH transferred, active addresses, and ETH burned (EIP-1559). Active-address counts and on-chain throughput are the metrics analytics vendors (Glassnode, Coin Metrics, DefiLlama, Blockchain.com) sell behind paywalls and forbid you to resell - but the ledger itself is public-domain data, so these derived aggregates are freely redistributable. That licence gap is the moat: the clean, resellable on-chain-activity layer.
Hyperliquid Basis & Carry
The delta-neutral carry signal for every Hyperliquid perp, hourly: the perp basis (mark vs oracle dislocation, bps), the annualised funding rate, and the perp premium - the three numbers a cash-and-carry or delta-neutral yield desk actually trades. Reconstructed from the raw asset-context archive, 2023-05 → present, including the long tail of small-cap perps most basis feeds omit. Pure on-chain DEX data, no CEX. One row per coin × hour × metric.
Crypto BTC
How much each crypto moves with Bitcoin: the rolling 90-day BETA (cov(coin, BTC) ÷ var(BTC)) and CORRELATION of daily returns to BTC, for every coin on Hyperliquid perps (~230). The hedge-ratio and diversification map crypto portfolio, market-neutral and basis desks use to size BTC hedges and spot dispersion trades - daily, from the Hyperliquid archive.
