Pooltogether Time!
PoolTogether is a no-loss lottery that uses Compound interest from pooled deposits to fund the prize pool, with one or multi-winner selected each round.
In this analysis, I have delved into Pool together on Optimism to gain insights into the platform's user behavior. To achieve this, I thoroughly examined several parameters within Pool Together, including the weekly number of users, transactions, and volume per deposit, withdrawal, and rewards. I also looked at the platform's top winners and the average number of days users hold their deposits on Pool together. This comprehensive analysis provided me with a better understanding of the Pool together community and their preferences.
Finally, I compared Pool Together on Optimism with Pool together on Polygon to better understand the differences between the two platforms.
I reviewed the Pool Together documents for both the Optimism and Polygon chains. On Optimism, I analyzed the rewards distribution using the contract address 0x722e9bfc008358ac2d445a8d892cf7b62b550f3f and used the optimism.core.fact_event_logs table to identify rewards amounts and winners.
For deposits and withdrawals, I found that both were facilitated through the contract address 0x79bc8bd53244bc8a9c8c27509a2d573650a83373, with deposit events labeled as "Mint" and withdrawal events labeled as "Withdraw." I repeated this process for the Polygon chain, noting that the contract addresses differed.

PoolTogether is a decentralized no-loss lottery allowing users to keep their initial deposit after the prize is drawn. Instead of using lottery ticket sales to fund the prize money, the interest earned on Compound from pooled personal deposits funds the prize pool.
Each round of PoolTogether sends all individual deposits to Compound to earn interest, and one or multiple random winners are chosen to win the entire interest prize pool at the end of each period.
