Summary
In this chapter, we provided an overview of data science and Web3 concepts, covering fundamental aspects such as the typical steps involved in a data science project, the evolution of Web3, and essential concepts such as consensus, addresses, and gas. We also delved into prevalent metrics and challenges that exist in the rapidly evolving field of Web3.
In the forthcoming chapter, we will take a deeper dive into on-chain data, the primary dataset of Web3. Our exploration will encompass a detailed examination of blocks and transactions. We will also discuss various methods for accessing this invaluable data. By the end of that chapter, you will have acquired a robust understanding of on-chain data and how to effectively navigate and utilize it.
