Fredrik Haga: Dune Analytics – The Open Data Platform

Episode Summary

Dune Analytics is a analytics platform for blockchain data, allowing users to query & analyze public data on-chain. In this episode, we chatted about product development, community building, and lessons on building in public.

Episode Notes

Dune Analytics is a platform aggregating blockchain data, making data easier to query and understand for the larger public. Over the past years, Dune has become the go-to tool for blockchain analytics, as well as the home of a community of dune wizards numbering in the thousands, with its fundraising at a 1 Billion valuation as a testament to the growth of the project over the past 4 years.

In today's episode, we are joined by the project's co-founder, Fredrik Haga. We discuss the products Dune Analytics offers, why it's hard to aggregate data that in principle is public, and how a community of data wizards was built in a grassroots effort. We also chatted about product focus and vision for the future, as well as useful lessons for bootstrapping a project on a shoestring budget.
