Ethereum C2C - Transactions Count

As of
Correlation Score
31.87%

C2C (Customer-to-Customer) Transactions Count aims to track the number of transactions between individuals. This metric should exclude all transactions to and from: merchants, exchanges, coin swap services, randomizers …

The algorithm infers "Institutional" addresses using this 3 metrics:

  • Transactions frequency
  • Time the accounts do a high amount of transactions
  • Amount spent and received

Assumptions made:

  • High transactions frequency is a good indicator of an account that does programmatic transactions.
  • Business accounts seem to be active every day or follow a pretty strict activity pattern.
  • Businesses move a lot more money than Customers.

*Note

  • Customers addresses are all addresses that the algorithm did not infer as Business addresses.
  • Correlation Score is the Pearson correlation coefficient.
