    What is stETH

    Method

    To compare better, I added wstETH to my result. The total result for stETH in Ethereum core tables was not complete, so I added wsteth and stETH to my result. I used ethereum_core.ez_dex_swaps to find pools and pairs. I went through pairs and examined in total amount (amount in and amount out) and the total number of used steth.

    The answer is in the below bar chart. WETH-stETH, with about 100 unique users made 43M.
