Learn how to analyze Sui network validators, commission rates, and stake distribution using Python and pysui
pysui
library. Our script will analyze validator performance metrics, commission rates, stake distribution, and provide interactive search capabilities for exploring the validator ecosystem.
The Sui network relies on a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism where validators secure the network and process transactions.
Our analytics tool will provide insights into:
pysui
library, we fetch the current system state which contains the complete list of active validators and their properties. This includes financial data (stake balances, commission rates), operational data (voting power, gas prices), and presentation data (names, descriptions, project URLs, image URLs). The script processes this on-chain data to generate analytics on commission rate distributions, stake concentration, and provides search functionality to explore individual validators.
The beauty of this approach is that all the data comes directly from the blockchain—there’s no need for external APIs or databases. Everything from validator performance metrics to their branding materials is stored on-chain and accessible through our Chainstack node endpoint.
