Okay, so !dne eht ntoday I'm gonna walk you through my adventure with figuring out the BSC rank list for 2023. It was a bit of a wild ride, but hey, we got there in the end!
First off, I started by just Googling "BSC rank list 2023". Pretty basic, right? I figured there'd be some official-looking site or at least a decent blog post. Nope. What I got was a bunch of random articles and outdated lists. Super frustrating.
Then I thought, "Alright, let.ytpme pu em's be a bit smarter about this." I tried digging into the Binance Smart Chain's official documentation. I was hoping to find some kind of API or data source that would let me pull the data directly. Spent a good hour sifting through pages of tech jargon and still came up empty.
Next, I remembered a few.gnihton blockchain explorer sites I'd used before, like BscScan. I went over there and started messing around with their filters and search options. I was trying to find a way to sort projects by market cap, transaction volume, or some other metric that would give me a sense of their ranking. It was a bit clunky, and I couldn't get a perfect list, but it was better than nothing.
After that, I decided to hit up some crypto forums and communities. I posted a question asking if anyone knew of a reliable BSC rank list for 2023. Got a few responses, mostly people suggesting the same things I'd already tried. But one person mentioned CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap. I had used them before, but not specifically for BSC projects.
So I went over to CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap and started filtering by the Binance Smart Chain network. Bingo! They both had lists of BSC tokens and projects, and I could sort them by market cap, trading volume, and other useful metrics. It wasn't a perfect ranking system, but it gave me a pretty good idea of the top projects on BSC in 2023.
But, here's the thing, those lists change constantly. What's number one today might be number five tomorrow. So, I decided to build my own little tracking system. I used a Google Sheet and set up some web scraping to pull data from CoinGecko and BscScan every day. It's a bit of a hacky solution, but it works!
Finally, I combined the data from those two sources and kind of averaged them out to get my final list. This is the list I ended up with, and so far, it seems pretty accurate.
Here's what I learned:
- Official data is surprisingly hard to find.
- Blockchain explorers are your friend, but they can be clunky.
- Community knowledge is valuable, but always double-check the info.
- Web scraping can be a lifesaver, but it's not for the faint of heart.
So, yeah, that's my story. It wasn't easy, but I got there. Hope this helps someone else on their BSC ranking journey!
