How this service works
Lightning Network Gini Coefficient (Capacity Distribution) — Lightning Network Gini Coefficient (Capacity Distribution) is a statistical measure of how Bitcoin capacity is distributed across nodes on the Lightning Network, used to monitor the degree of centralization and the potential risks associated with highly concentrated capacity. Data by Glassnode.
Output
Returns a time-series array of objects, each with a Unix timestamp ('t') and the Gini coefficient value ('v') representing the degree of inequality in Lightning Network capacity distribution across nodes, where 0 is perfect equality and 1 is maximum concentration.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Pull the latest Glassnode Lightning Network Gini coefficient for BTC capacity distribution in JSON format so I can see how centralized node capacity currently is.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://x402.glassnode.com/v1/metrics/lightning/gini_capacity_distributionWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to quantitatively measure how concentrated or decentralized Bitcoin capacity is on the Lightning Network. Prefer this over generic Lightning stats when specifically interested in inequality/centralization metrics (Gini-based). Best for macro analysis of Lightning Network health and decentralization trends over time.
Side effects
- Missing required 'a' parameter (asset symbol) returns a 400 error
- Invalid asset symbol (non-BTC) rejected due to enum constraint
- Payment not completed results in 402 Payment Required
- Upstream Glassnode data unavailable returns 503 or empty result
- Invalid interval value returns 400 bad request
