The Hubs and Authorities Transaction Network Analysis using the SANSA framework.

Abstract

With the recent trend on blockchain, many users want to know more about the important players of the chain. In this study, we investigate and analyze the Ethereum blockchain network in order to identify the major entities across the transaction network. By leveraging the rich data available through Alethio's platform in the form of RDF triples we learn about the Hubs and Authorities of the Ethereum transaction network. Alethio uses SANSA for effcient reading and processing of such large-scale RDF data (transactions on Ethereum blockchain) in order to perform analytics e.g. finding top accounts, or typical behavior patterns of exchanges' deposit wallets and more.
