Wherefore Art Thou, Rewards?
In this analytics, we are going to analyze the ANC rewards usage by Anchor users. ANC is paid to users who use Anchor borrowing, stake ANC tokens, and Provide LPs
The chart shown on the above visualize the number of Wallet claiming ANC rewards by day. The 1497 wallet claims where the highest during the early days of Anchor deployment. The minimum was on Jan 14th with only 2 claims by users on that day.
