We also cross reference peak traffic dates with news from Cryptodaily in an effort to explain the heightened volumes for each chain.
180: "I get knocked down, but ..." -- Terra edition
Apr 13, 2022 - Here we define a drawdown metric and calculate the time it takes after each major drop (over 25%) in LUNAs price to recover. We find drops below 40% rarely take longer than 40 days (and typically much less) to recover unless they occur in a marked bear market downturn, however drops above 40% usually take around a 100 days to make up for.

Delegated Voting Power ON AAVE
Oct 16, 2021 - Governance and voting is a crucial issue for AAVE. All holders have a say in proposals and can vote to decide how the platform operates, manages it's funds and which projects AAVE accepts on its platform. The accepted tokens can be deposited or lent out and will therefore influence the value of AAVE itself. Voting can be exercised directly or delegated to other addresses, both the power to vote on proposals and the power to make proposals as well. Who are the masters of the vote then? Which addresses hold the power to provide or deny the liquidity of one of the largest lending protocols of Cryptospace? (At the time of writing AAVE is one of the largest lending protocols with 18.8 Billion USD locked*. The second is compound with 11.9 Billion USD*)

TrackN StepN
May 21, 2022 - STEPN is a Game-Fi/Social-Fi project with a dual-token system (GMT and GST) and an NFT system (STEPN Sneaker). Users acquire the STEPN Sneaker to participate in the move-and-earn program and earn GST and/or GMT. GMT and GST can be used to upgrade Sneakers and increase the rate of earning. In this dashboard we attempt to track the flow of the governance token GMT into Solana. TL;DR: The net flow of GMT to Solana has so far been negative, indicating that primarily Solana natives use (and sell) the token.
Rune upgrades in the past 3 months
Oct 27, 2021 - Rune is the central native asset of Thorchain. It is extremely liquid as it provides the means of connecting all supported assets on all chains. This also means that it draws its value from any asset it provides liquidity to! Rune exists on the Ethereum and the Binance smart chains as a non-native token as well and it is possible to 'upgrade' these tokens to Thorchain native Runes. What was the volume of these conversions?
Are Liquidations on Anchor and changes in LUNA price linked?
Jan 3, 2022 - Anchor is the largest lending platform on the Terra blockchain, whose governance/staking token is LUNA. When positions on Anchor get liquidated LUNA and ETH has to be sold for stablecoins to recover the loans Loan-to-Value ratio. Hence we can ask the question: are liquidations and LUNA price changes linked?
47. Do people swap for or bridge goBTC and goETH?
Apr 7, 2022 - BTC and ETH traffic is slowly building on Algorand. Daily capital inflows mostly remain below 1 M USD, but what comes, sticks around without significant reverse traffic on the bridge. Swapping activity is also low, but seems to slowly build momentum as capital is accumulating. The one exception happened on January 1st, when large amounts of BTC and ETH got minted to Algorand and swapped around like there was a party.
Thorchain daily reward distribution
Oct 27, 2021 - Thorchain is a decentralized ecosystem that enables swaps between native assets on different chains. No bridges, no wrapped tokens, no centralized exchanges no huss, no fuss, just natives tokens in on one side and native tokens out on the other. It can do this by maintaining vaults on all supported chains where liquidity providers pitch in the required native assets and/or Rune (Thorchain's native asset) and the network validators stake their bonds to secure the chain. During operations the validator nodes generate blocks and for each block the system Reserve allocates a block reward to be paid out. The reward is distributed between the liquidity providers and the validators ideally in a 1:2 ratio when the system is in its optimal state in terms pool liquidity size vs validator bond size. The Reserve is in turn refilled as it receives various kinds of transaction fees or validator penalties. How do the daily generated block rewards vary over time?
The Rise of DeGods

Daily total and average borrows and deposits on Anchor in the past 3 months
Dec 27, 2021 - Anchor is a savings protocol offering low-volatile yields on Terra stablecoin deposits. It does so using a diversified stream of Proof-of-Stake staking rewards. Borrowers provide collateral in the form of bAssets that gets staked in PoS protocols to earn the yield. Lenders provide stablecoins (which gets lent out) and recieve their yield from the staking rewards converted to the stablecoin they provided. How have the actual volume of average and total deposits and borrows changed on a daily timeframe in the past 3 months?

NFT Growth on Solana and Ethereum
Apr 26, 2022 - Minting activity on Solana far exceeds the number of mints ever reached on Ethereum. The number of sales transactions is about half of the Ethereum numbers on Solana and activity between the two is tightly correlated. However, the sales volume in USD is only 1-20% and the correlation is much looser. The number of unique addresses interacting (minting or selling) on the two chains are almost the same and daily changes in the addresses numebers are closely correlated.
Liquidity trends of Saber Labs SOL-daoSOL Pool on the Solana Blockchain
Feb 16, 2022 - TL;DR The SOL-daoSOL Pools TVL in SOL has expanded over 10% in the past 2 weeks. The pool saw an influx of 1200 users, most on February 10-11. Most first-time depositions were in the 1-10 SOL range, however a large depositor has also entered with 5k daoSOL and 5k SOL on February 5.

Oct 21, 2022 - What is the contribution of SushiSwap to the growth of the largest EVM chains? We are going to examine this in view of the network growth numbers.
Weight-averaged LP Duration on Thor
May 1, 2022 - We uncover and analyse the liquidity weighted average staking duration on the Thorchain network over the networks history. We identify periods of growth with new liquidity bringing the average age down and periods of aging without new liquidity being added. We identify the most significant pools contributing to the average and discuss the differences between the shapes of the average staking duration curves of the pools.
Polygon Block Performance
Jul 26, 2022 - Deep dive into Polygon's block time and tx_count statistics investigating correlations with gas usage, block size and difficulty. Also compares the stats with 5 other chains.

Mar 16, 2023 - GMX's GLP pool nearly doubled in invested asset value last month. Rumours have been circulating on Twitter about the contribution of the DeltaPrime, a lending platform to GLP's performance after it enabled borrowers to invest in YieldYak's strategy pools. The GLP pool is YieldYak's most prominent pool. In this dashboard we quantify DeltaPrime's and YieldYak's contributions to GLP's performance and show how a couple of large accounts were able to drive investor sentiment.
