Active Addresses by Blockchain: Daily and Monthly

Which blockchains have the most active addresses?

How many distinct addresses send transactions on each major chain per day and per month, counted the same way on every chain.

What the dashboard will show.

The dashboard as it will open in Vantage. Each figure is named here and arrives with its receipt; until its data is published, its place stays empty.

  • Period
  • Chain

Daily

Distinct senders per chain on the latest day and over time.

Active addresses, all chains

count

Each covered chain's distinct senders on the latest complete day, added up, so an address active on two chains counts twice.

Figurechain_activity_dailyAwaiting data

Most active chain

The chain with the most distinct senders on the latest complete day, and its count.

Figurechain_activity_dailyAwaiting data

Change against last week

%

The covered chains' daily active addresses against the same weekday a week earlier.

Figurechain_activity_dailyAwaiting data

New addresses, latest day

count

Addresses that sent their first transaction on their chain on the latest complete day, added up across chains.

Figurechain_activity_dailyAwaiting data

Daily active addresses by chain

count

Each chain's distinct daily senders over the selected period, one line per chain.

Monthly

Distinct senders per chain over 30 days, and how often they return.

30-day active addresses

count

Distinct senders over the last 30 days on each covered chain, added up across chains.

Figurechain_activity_dailyAwaiting data

Daily to monthly ratio

Average daily active addresses divided by the 30-day count across covered chains: how much of the monthly base is active on a typical day.

About

What it answers, and for whom.

Active addresses are the closest on-chain measure of how many people use a chain, and one of the easiest to inflate. This dashboard counts, for each chain, the distinct addresses that sent at least one successful transaction in a day and in the last 30 days, using each chain's nearest equivalent of a sender, such as Solana's fee payer or a TON wallet contract.

Read the counts as addresses, not people: one person can control many addresses and an exchange can act for many people from one, while bots can create as many as they like. Each chain's count comes from its own transactions with the rule written down, so chains are compared like for like. Every figure links to the blocks that produced it.

Method

How it will be measured.

Every figure will be read at a block, kept with its source and its exact read, and open a receipt anyone can re-check.

How receipts work →
  1. EVM chains count distinct from addresses of successful transactions per UTC day and per rolling 30 days, from each chain's transaction table.
  2. Solana counts distinct fee payers, the first signer, of non-vote transactions; Tron counts transaction owner addresses; Sui and Aptos count transaction senders and NEAR counts signers.
  3. TON counts wallet contracts that processed an external message from their owner; the XRP Ledger and Stellar count source accounts of validated transactions; Cardano counts payment addresses that spent an input.
  4. Monthly counts are distinct over the whole window, not a sum of daily counts, so an address active every day counts once.
  5. Each count is pinned to the first and last block of its window and carries a receipt for the reads behind it.

Questions

Questions people ask.

What is an active address?

An address that sent at least one successful transaction in the period. Counting senders rather than receivers keeps out addresses that only received an airdrop or a spam transfer without ever acting.

Are active addresses the same as users?

No. A person may use several addresses and an exchange may move funds for many people from one address, while automated programs can control very many. Active addresses are best read as a trend on one chain and compared across chains with care.

Why are Solana votes left out?

Until the Alpenglow upgrade, Solana validators recorded their consensus votes as transactions, which made validators look like very active users. Votes are excluded throughout, so the series stays comparable before and after they left the ledger.

Why do daily and monthly counts tell different stories?

Daily counts show how many addresses are active on a typical day; monthly counts show how many different addresses used the chain at all. A high daily count with a low monthly one means a small set of addresses returns again and again.

Fee payer
On Solana, the account that signs first and pays the transaction's fee, counted here as its sender.
Distinct count
Each address counted once in the window, however many transactions it sent.
Daily to monthly ratio
Average daily active addresses divided by the 30-day count: how much of a chain's monthly base shows up on a typical day.
