1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Blockchain technology, once limited to niche technological communities, has seen widespread global adoption in recent years, with the potential to reshape financial and social systems. Launched in July 2015, the Ethereum blockchain introduced programmable Smart Contracts. This innovation enabled the creation of user-defined crypto-assets adhering to the ERC-20 standard, supporting a wide range of decentralized applications beyond simple value transfer. We present a large-scale, temporally annotated dataset of ERC-20 token transactions recorded on the Ethereum blockchain. Spanning from November 2015 to December 2024, the dataset encapsulates the trading activity of 216,336,529 users trading 1,138,136 unique tokens, offering a detailed view of crypto-market activity over time. Uniquely, it enables the analysis of a financial ecosystem from its inception, providing rare insights into its structural evolution, participant dynamics, and emergent behaviors. As the largest publicly available resource of its kind, it supports research in blockchain analytics, market dynamics and temporal network analysis. The full dataset and accompanying code are released for public use.
