Top level economic stats

[ilblackdragon]

We need many different economics stats, but here are the most important:

• Total supply over time
• Epoch reward for given epoch
• Amount of fees burnt over time (Display fees burnt on Block Details page #186)
• Gas spent / gas limit over time (also across shards?) (Chart for amount of gas spent over time #122)
• Gas price over time
• State size over time (also across shards?)

Supply breakdown:

• Liquid tokens
• Staked tokens
• Locked tokens
• ? unclaimed / etc tokens

Note that locked tokens can be staked. Unclaimed tokens from airdrops, etc.

Validator stats:

• Number of validator seats
• Validator seat threshold
• Amount of staked / delegated tokens, ratio to total supply
• Reward %, inflation %
• Number of blocks until next epoch

@ilblackdragon Could you, please, match the RPC data to the items you listed? For example, let's take "Total supply over time": there will be total supply exposed via Genesis Config near/nearcore#2109, but where should we learn about the "over time" part? I guess, it is a monotonic function, so we can compute it based on the block height, but the one who implements this issue needs to learn how to do that.

For general stats:

• Total supply -> block.header.total_supply
• Epoch reward -> (0.05 / (total_blocks_in_the_year / epoch_length)) * block.header.total_supply
• Fees burnt -> block.header.rent_paid + block.header.gas_price * sum(for each chunk -> chunk.header.gas_used)
• Gas spent / limit -> sum(for each chunk -> chunk.header.gas_used) / sum(for each chunk -> chunk.header.gas_limit)
• Gas price -> block.header.gas_price
• State size -> ??? @bowenwang1996 rent_paid / rent_cost?

@kcole16 it seems that we need design for this thing. I imagine that we need dashboard changes here and at the same time we don’t want to bloat it, which is a hard task (maybe we should have a carousel of various stats or just have a toggle to show more stats while be default we only show the generic ones)
