Please describe your proposed solution.

We aim to enhance the globally acclaimed Cardanoscan Explorer by introducing a dedicated analytics page, setting a new standard for Cardano blockchain insights. Our solution addresses the existing challenge of obtaining up-to-date and reliable data by utilizing our proven, unique approach—operating without db-sync, ensuring unparalleled reliability and eliminating downtimes.

The analytics page will showcase dynamic graphs and numerical data, providing users with a comprehensive understanding of Cardano's real-time performance. Our user-friendly interface, already recognized as the most user-friendly explorer for the Cardano blockchain, will make complex analytics accessible to a broad audience worldwide.

What sets us apart is our commitment to reliability and innovation. Our track record of uninterrupted service and innovative data-handling approach makes us the go-to choice for the Cardano community. This solution benefits users globally, empowering them with accurate, timely, and accessible analytics to make informed decisions within the dynamic Cardano ecosystem.

Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community.

The success of our project will bring substantial value to the Cardano community by providing a reliable and user-friendly analytics page on Cardanoscan Explorer. This enhanced resource will empower users with comprehensive insights into the Cardano blockchain, aiding informed decision-making and fostering community engagement. We will measure impact through increased user adoption rates and gather qualitative feedback through satisfaction surveys. To share outputs, we will disseminate updates through community channels, host open forums and workshops, and provide comprehensive documentation. Additionally, the analytics page will serve as an educational hub for newcomers and act as a reflective mirror to media, showcasing the robustness of the Cardano ecosystem.

What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability? How do you intend to validate if your approach is feasible?

We have a proven track record of successfully completing projects while maintaining high levels of trust and accountability. Since the beginning of the Shelley period, our team has been actively participating in the Cardano ecosystem, and we have successfully developed and maintained Cardanoscan, a widely used Cardano explorer.

In addition to Cardanoscan, we created Typhon Wallet, a highly recognised and user-friendly wallet that has received widespread acclaim from the Cardano community. This wallet is a direct result of our involvement in the Catalyst programme, which demonstrates our dedication to innovation and providing important community solutions.

We have also worked and delivered the Cardano ADA, Native tokens, and ADA Staking integration within Ledger Live bringing the mass userbase of Ledger to Cardano and providing a safe and secure custodial wallet solution to the community.

Furthermore, we have contributed to the Cardano ecosystem through a number of open-source libraries, which can be found on our GitHub repository (https://github.com/StricaHQ). These libraries represent our commitment to providing developers with dependable tools and resources that conform to high-quality and transparent requirements.

Our experience, knowledge, and positive feedback from the community attest to our ability to deliver projects with a strong emphasis on integrity and responsibility. We intend to uphold these values throughout the course of our implementation.

What are the key milestones you need to achieve in order to complete your project successfully?

1. Analytical Chart for Epochly Rewards Distribution: Develop a comprehensive chart illustrating the distribution of rewards in each epoch, providing users with a clear and detailed overview of reward allocation.
2. Daily Transaction and Fee Collection: Implement graphical representations showcasing the daily transaction count and fee collection on Cardano.
