Try Quests to earn SOLRealms vs Snapshot
Introduction
For a more accurate comparison of the two protocols, it is better to use the same time frame Of course, in general cases, we want to compare and draw conclusions
Therefore, in this analysis, I have only considered the data related to 2022 in most of the tables (when the general data is considered, I will explain in the relevant section)
And I have also compared the most important features of these two In each part, I will present the diagrams as well as my analysis of the drawn diagram
first of all
It is better to know more about these two protocols before checking the data and tables and comparing them completely
Realms provide a platform for builders on Solana to create a DAO, manage their members, vote on proposals, and allocate their treasury. Whether you are running a multi-sig, NFT community DAO, or community token DAO, Realms has the tools and integrations to help your community flourish.
Snapshot is a decentralized voting system. It provides flexibility on how voting power is calculated for a vote. Snapshot supports various voting types to cater to the needs of organizations. Creating proposals and voting on Snapshot is user-friendly and does not cost gas as the process is performed off-chain. In short, Snapshot is an off-chain gasless multi-governance client with easy-to-verify and hard-to-contest results.
One of the important data for checking and comparing two crypto projects is GitHub data This data will show us how much a project is growing In the case of these two platforms, Snapchat has received more commits over time and this can mean the further growth of this platform. Of course, looking only at GitHub data cannot be a strong reason for the further growth of a project or platform because this data alone is not a good measure, but it can be useful if it is used together with other data.

Another data that can help is data related to growth in social networks Because this data means more visibility of the platform/project, especially Twitter, where the main crypto community is located. The summarized data of the accounts was obtained with the help of the hypeauditor site Unfortunately, this site does not provide data for accounts with less than 1000 followers And so we were only able to use snapshot data All the data related to Snapshot's Twitter account show the growth of this platform, the number of followers in this account is growing, but the point that should be paid attention to is that the amount of engagement is relatively low. This can have various reasons and should be taken into consideration by the company
In the monthly view, it can be seen that the growth of the two graphs is similar to each other But with two completely different standards! Snapshot has many more transactions The chart of monthly changes shows more differences Snapshot's growth has been almost constant except for the month of April, in this month Realms also had its highest value
The important thing about cumulative charts is that these charts show the total at the end point

Conclusion
In most cases, Snapshot had more and better data, but this conclusion is too simple Let me comment on each part separately In the number of voters, Snapshot had 180 times more users 8 times in the number of proposals and 12 times in the number of Realms The reason for a large number of voting users can be due to the large difference in the number of users of the Ethereum and Solana networks But as it is clear from the last table, the percentage of participants in Ethereum is also higher
