A single file Analytics Tool to find Post-Payouts from a List of Users

At the end of October 2024, I became aware of a large-scale spam attack targeting Hive. Since then, I have been working consistently, together with @hivewatchers, to address the situation. This effort has been highly effective. Over the months, I’ve been analyzing over 18,000 accounts daily through various API endpoints to detect and highlight potential payouts linked to stolen content. With the essential collaboration of @themarkymark and @buildawhale, nearly, if not, all of these fraudulent payouts have been successfully intercepted and downvoted before they could be reaching the 7-days payout window.

<p dir="auto">This journey has been both challenging and deeply fulfilling, and it inspired me to enhance the tools I’ve been using. I decided to reimagine my analysis tool, which was previously a Python application running in Visual Studio Code. I rebuilt it as a more versatile single-file HTML document, integrating HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. Thanks to GitHub Copilot, I was able to convert from python to javascript and refine the tool into a more efficient and user-friendly version. <p dir="auto">The updated tool is now uploaded and ready for anyone to use. You can simply input a list of usernames and initiate an analysis. Beyond our collective efforts to combat spam on Hive, this tool could also serve as a helpful resource in other analytical scenarios. <p dir="auto">This initiative represents my commitment to preserving Hive as a trustworthy and vibrant platform. I’m confident this tool will further strengthen our ability to maintain a high standard for our community. Thank you all for your ongoing support and dedication! <p dir="auto"><br /><span>Live-Version: <a href="https://raw.githack.com/louis-88/hive-account-postcheck/main/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">https://raw.githack.com/louis-88/hive-account-postcheck/main/index.html<span> Github: <a href="https://github.com/louis-88/hive-account-postcheck" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">https://github.com/louis-88/hive-account-postcheck <h1>Hive Analytics Dashboard <p dir="auto">A real-time analytics dashboard for monitoring Hive blockchain accounts and their post payouts. <h2>Live Version <p dir="auto"><span><a href="https://raw.githack.com/louis-88/hive-account-postcheck/main/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">https://raw.githack.com/louis-88/hive-account-postcheck/main/index.html <h2>Screenshots <div class="pull-left"><div class="text-justify"> <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1ba9d814-fa60-4415-99eb-51708d6e9552" alt="blank screen" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1ba9d814-fa60-4415-99eb-51708d6e9552 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1ba9d814-fa60-4415-99eb-51708d6e9552 2x" /> <div class="pull-right"><div class="text-justify"> <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/882ec42d-e2ff-4a88-bf5a-7929317b6e27" alt="screenshot with data from my friends" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/882ec42d-e2ff-4a88-bf5a-7929317b6e27 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/882ec42d-e2ff-4a88-bf5a-7929317b6e27 2x" /> <hr /> <div class="pull-left"><div class="text-justify"> <h2>Features <ul> <li>Real-time monitoring of multiple Hive accounts <li>Batch processing with configurable size <li>Multiple API endpoint support with load balancing <li>Post filtering by date and payout value <li>Sortable results table with live updates <li>Live progress tracking <li>Enhanced activity logging with search and clear functionality <li>Pause/Resume functionality <li>Reblog filtering (shows only original content) <li>Configurable frontend selection for post links <h2>Activity Log Features <ul> <li>Real-time log updates <li>Search functionality for filtering log entries <li>Clear logs button <li>Color-coded log entries by type: <ul> <li>Info (blue) <li>Success (green) <li>Error (red) <li>Warning (yellow) <li>API (purple) <li>Fetch (light blue) <li>Process (light green) <h2>Usage <ol> <li>Open <code>index.html in a modern web browser <li>Enter Hive accounts (one per line) or load from a text file <li>Adjust settings as needed <li>Click "Start Monitoring" <li>View results in real-time as they're found <h2>Results Table <p dir="auto">The results table shows: <ul> <li>Username <li>Post Date <li>Link to Post (opens in selected frontend) <li>HBD Value <li>Post Title (truncated with full title on hover) <p dir="auto">Click column headers to sort by that column. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/louis88/23t76y4yZfM62p8mxaynsE53cZSyTzrGh2pobX36PEynmGaKWAiXSy1eMb36K8V4m3rSy.png" alt="image.png" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/louis88/23t76y4yZfM62p8mxaynsE53cZSyTzrGh2pobX36PEynmGaKWAiXSy1eMb36K8V4m3rSy.png 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/louis88/23t76y4yZfM62p8mxaynsE53cZSyTzrGh2pobX36PEynmGaKWAiXSy1eMb36K8V4m3rSy.png 2x" /> <div class="pull-right"><div class="text-justify"> <h2>Settings <ul> <li><strong>Days to Look Back: Number of days to check for posts (1-365) <li><strong>Min HBD Threshold: Minimum payout value to include (in HBD) <li><strong>Retry Limit: Number of API retry attempts <li><strong>Timeout: API call timeout in seconds <li><strong>Processes: Number of concurrent processes <li><strong>API Call Delay: Delay between API calls in seconds <li><strong>Batch Size: Number of accounts to process in each batch <li><strong>Frontend: Choose preferred frontend for post links <ul> <li>PeakD (default) <li>Hive.blog <li>Ecency <li>Inleo <h2>API Endpoints <p dir="auto">Default endpoints included: <ul> <li>api.hive.blog (enabled) <li>api.deathwing.me (enabled) <li>api.openhive.network (enabled) <li>techcoderx.com (disabled) <li>api.c0ff33a.uk (disabled) <li>rpc.mahdiyari.info (disabled) <p dir="auto">You can add/remove endpoints and enable/disable them as needed.
