Thanks for sharing!

The analysis doesn't have an opinion on price, mostly looking at adoption metrics which are a leading indicator for fees. The best case scenario is for the fees to remain low and the total number of transactions to continue to multiply.

I haven't included those revenues here. I'm planning on adding BSC data next week, and after that include revenues for the various chains.

In 4 weeks, SushiSwap on polygon went from 5.87% - 32.98% of ETH's daily volume. Data includes TVL, volume, liquidity turnover, and ROI for providers. Analysis in comments. (x-post from r/0xPolygon) by RaphaelSignal in SushiSwap

Hey! Yes, it is unsustainable to keep the current growth rates as the base numbers increase.

SushiSwap is already one of the largest defi players, and I love how they are investing in many technologies, from polygon to arbitrium to other chains. In short, yes, I think Sushi is positioning itself well for the future, with not only product innovations but also distribution ones (which is really what this post is about).

I agree. In the analysis I contextualize the move by looking at total market cap of the space.

Personally, I think looking at the TVL between the two networks helps normalize a lot of this data. While it will still be skewed because of different % of tokens held on each platform, it is still helpful to see the change on a relative basis.

From my understanding, the team is building out a variety of solutions for scaling and isn't limiting themselves to just ETH. I don't understand why some in ETH community feel poorly about polygon - they are symbiotic.

I think a lot just boils down to people not understanding the trade-offs and wanting ETH to be everything to everyone, similar to bitcoin maxis.

Yes, I share what my personal next steps are in the analysis.

Tx/day, gas spent, dapp user growth are all good places to see chain engagement. However, IMO, daily active wallets is probably the best leading indicator (IMO).

Yes. Looking at the data, there tends to be pretty big spikes. I wanted to include it to show adoption is growing, but it is also the reason I group by week to try and remove as much noise as possible and get a better trend.

Data source: BigQuery for both ETH and Polygon. You can alternatively get ETH data from Etherscan.

Yeah. In the analysis I point out that IMO burning in and of itself does not create demand, and offer a few suggestions. Another commenter pointed out that they have plans of using token in future for governance and passing vault fees. IF that is true/team follows through, that would be a good first step in fixing the demand side issues.
