What is Dune?
DuneSQL is Trino-derived with blockchain types for hashes, addresses and large integers. Query views compose analysis; materialized views precompute repeated results. Charts, tables, counters and text widgets present the output.
Inspect metric definitions and last execution: authors may count volume, wallets or P&L differently, and a dashboard needs reruns or schedules to stay fresh. Choose the initial dashboard name carefully because its generated URL slug is documented as unchangeable.
