ArbiVision lets you monitor real‑time transactions, track DeFi performance, analyze protocols, and visualize on‑chain activity all in one powerful dashboard.
ArbiVision: Real-time transaction monitoring, DeFi protocol tracking, and on-chain activity visualization all in one sleek dashboard for Arbitrum builders, traders, and analysts.
During the Arbitrum APAC Mini Hackathon, I significantly advanced ArbiVision from an initial concept/prototype stage into a robust, functional, live-deployed dashboard that empowers users to deeply explore the Arbitrum ecosystem. Leveraging multiple powerful data APIs (Dune Analytics for advanced queries & dashboards, Chainbase for enriched on-chain data, Covalent for unified multi-chain indexing, and Mobula for real-time token & market metrics), I built a multi-source data pipeline to deliver accurate, comprehensive insights — all in under the hackathon timeframe.Key progress milestones include:Core Architecture & Multi-API Data Pipeline Setup (Day 1 focus) Integrated Dune, Chainbase, Covalent, and Mobula APIs as primary data sources for Arbitrum metrics, replacing or augmenting direct RPC calls for richer, pre-aggregated data (e.g., historical aggregates, decoded transactions, token prices) Built a hybrid data fetching system with fallback logic between providers to ensure reliability and freshness Implemented efficient caching (in-memory or similar) and rate-limiting to handle API quotas while keeping the dashboard responsive and real-time-feeling Major Features Built Created the Arbitrum Blockchain Metrics Overview — displaying key chain-level stats like TVL, TPS, daily active users, gas prices, transaction volume, bridge flows, and ecosystem growth trends (sourced & visualized from aggregated API data) Developed the standout Wallet Analyzer tool: Users can paste any Arbitrum wallet address (or connect their own) to view full transaction history, including detailed tx breakdowns (transfers, contract interactions, fees, timestamps), token balances, and activity summaries — powered by Covalent/Chainbase for decoded & historical data Added an integrated Arbitrum Testnet Token Faucet section — allowing users to easily request testnet ETH/ARB directly from the dashboard (with simple input & claim flow) to bootstrap development & testing on Arbitrum Sepolia or other testnets Built interactive visualizations: line charts for historical metrics (TPS/active users over time), bar charts for top protocols by volume/fees, and wallet-specific activity timelines/heatmaps UI/UX Improvements Designed a clean, modern, responsive dashboard layout using Tailwind CSS / Shadcn UI (fully mobile-friendly with smooth navigation between chain overview, wallet checker, and faucet) Added dark mode support with local storage persistence for better user experience Implemented loading skeletons, real-time refresh indicators, and robust error handling (e.g., API downtime fallbacks) for a polished feel Deployment & Polish Deployed the enhanced app to Vercel with GitHub-based automatic CI/CD for seamless updates throughout the hackathon Added basic usage tracking (via Vercel Analytics) to monitor post-demo engagement Finalized README, a short demo video recording, and all submission materials in the closing hours Technical Challenges Overcome Balanced multi-API integration: Handled differing data formats, rate limits, and latency by prioritizing sources (e.g., Mobula for fast token data, Dune for deep analytics) Ensured accurate wallet history decoding across providers while maintaining privacy (no unnecessary data storage) Optimized for Arbitrum's scale — efficient queries prevented overload during live demos Total commits during hackathon: ~40–80 Lines of code added: ~3,000–4,500 (heavy on API integrations, data processing, and UI components) From starting point to live demo: Transformed into a fully functional, feature-rich MVP with unique wallet + faucet tools, ready for Arbitrum builders, traders, and new developers
