While October 2024 finished a while ago, in order to analyze the engagement generated by the use of Comment Rewarder on the Hive blockchain, I needed to let it breath a little from two perspectives: the 7 day window for rewards allocation and the echo of engagement which can have a ripple effect even after some time from that. Thus we can now analyze better the author and comments activity on these articles and be sure that we are capturing most of the engagement generated by #commentrewarder. So, here we go!

This is the first full month of the CR service being active, thus it provides a better view on how things are going and are being powered up through it. I have thought of extracting 3 stats for the authors that have enabled CR on their articles like:
- Top 100 authors ranked by the number of articles
- Top 100 authors ranked by the number of comments
- Top 100 authors ranked by the average number of comments reported to the articles

In October 2024 we had 134 authors which set the @commentrewarder as beneficiary. From the retrieved stats we can see the top authors by the number of articles (880 in total), but also the corresponding comments (15,712 in total) and an average on those. This metrics are for all the authors and articles, even if I have presented just the Top 100 corresponding to each category. Quite impresive metrics in my opinion which show that CR really works. I will continue to refine the reports in future iterations and any constructive feedback is welcomed!

*Note1: The comments count was performed with a depth of 10 levels which I consider fair enough in order not to inquire too much data on the blockchain.*
*Note2: From the results I have excluded some accounts which while enable CR, they use articles as containers for engagement (like @peak.snaps) which isn't quite relevant for these stats.*
