Follow up to the COSMOS ANTI-SHILL. Based on the feedback, the creator of Atomscan has now updated the website to make supply data more transparent to the public.

Two days ago, I posted the ANTI-SHILL on COSMOS and outlined several negative key aspects that could be holding back the chain. Many users commented and provided their own perspectives on some of the key issues presented.

One of the pieces of feedback came from u/CryptoCrackLord who runs the atomscan website - an explorer that I linked as a source in the original post.

Together, we discussed several aspects of transparency regarding the dissemination of supply data to the public. He outlined methodology to which people could run their own tests on the node. But in the end, it was agreed that the information should be available to the public at all times and not require coding expertise to have to work it out.

Now CryptoCrackLord has updated the atomscan website to include historical and supply data. I encourage you to view the new created statistics page of the website.

Here is a new chart generated on the website displaying the total supply against the staked supply for the entire year. The chart, based on node data, displays very different supply data to that of Messari, Coingecko or CoinMarketcap. I'd suggest maybe adjusting the display of the X-axis if you have time, but overall the chart is incredibly useful for comparing inflation and rewards.

Supply v Staked COSMOS

Overall, the feedback for the original post was generally positive, and there were many requests for me to continue providing ANTI-SHILL posts for their own investments.

Some people think the purpose of the ANTI-SHILL is to intentionally dump on cryptos. But as I outline in the posts, the intention is to get people thinking and challenging themselves.

There were a few petty grievances and relentless hate from users who targeted and downvoted me heavily, rather than challenge the data itself - this was obviously sad, but also expected.

I want to thank u/CryptoCrackLord for his efforts at providing this data, and consider this change a beneficial outcome for all investors.

EDIT: Dafuq? Even good news gets immediately downvoted now?
