Display ENS Avatar if user has ENS about buidlguidl-v3

[carletex]

Hey @gotnoshoeson thank for opening the issue. We've talked about this a few times and I think it's a good idea!

If we haven't implemented it yet it's because we were worried about performance, and were thinking about caching ideas. Hitting the /builders page and requesting everyone's avatar will make a bunch of requests.

I pretty much have this working already.

Are you using any caching mechanism? Are you using an API or RPC calls? Feel to open a draft PR and we can discuss there.

Thanks.

Thanks @carletex ,

Realizing that my solution isn't very optimized; I'm using my own firebase db so it's pretty fast with only 5 users :) Currently utilizing RPC calls.

I'm now thinking a more scalable/optimized solution would be to hit the ENS subgraph endpoint with an array of builder addresses as an argument variable, that'd be one request/one response with all the needed data. I'll open a PR with this method.

ENS subgraph endpoint with an array of builder addresses as an argument variable

This sounds great! Grouping addresses in a single request would save a lot.

My other idea was to cache it in Firebase (as we do with ENS names**).

** We save the resolved ENS name when a builder is created in the system. We'd also need a cron job to update (not happening at the moment). The other issue is that pages like /activity don't benefit (since we are not "joining" log data with the builder data (where the ENS name is saved). The good thing is that in the /builders page or an individual page, the data is already there.

Anyway, just thinking out loud! Feel free to PR and we can work from there.

Thanks again for working on this, man!
