Hay, I am one of the authors of the paper. If you have any questions about the paper or Raphtory (the tool we build for this type of analysis) ask away.

I’m skimming: Why does it say it’s studying the Ethereum stablecoin ecosystem while its about Terra Luna’s own blockchain as well as a rumored shortsell of Bitcoin somewhere else

Or, when it does include wrapped tokens on Ethereum, What promoted you to look at this angle

I dont find TerraLuna to be that interesting, we all had the choice of not trading it and some institutional firms had borrowings that caused contagion in the crypto space up till the FTX collapse. Given these choices and the issue of leverage, what makes trading activity to be that interesting?

Analyzing it points the way to new approaches for analyzing other or future blockchain events, for one.

If you want to study some kind of event, you study the events you have.

Whether their focus subjects were interesting to trade for you is beside the point. People traded them.

how about you pick a title that makes it clear its' talking about crypto and not orbital mechanics next time.

lol. I had that same thought. I opened the article thinking it might be about the formation of the moon.

The actual title reads quite clearly it's not about orbital mechanics: "Investigating the Luna-Terra Collapse through the Temporal Multilayer Graph Structure of the Ethereum Stablecoin Ecosystem"

hn auto shorting of titles makes funny voincidences some times totally rewriting the meaning of submissions titles by omission of just a few words

heh
