Ink the future ✍️. Unleashed by Kraken. Built on the Superchain.

Active Addresses  
 
Ink has made a strong start when it comes to active addresses surpassing 100k distinct daily addresses within its first 90 days.  
 
Why the sudden spike on the 23-27th of Jan – Possible reasons: 
- 22nd Ink enabled improved bridging on their dashboard 
- 23rd Ink reached Stage 1 on @l2beat and got a shout out from Vitalik himself

Transaction Count 

Ink has recently reached an all-time high of over 238k daily transactions. We can see a similar chart pattern to active addresses with a spike in transactions after reaching Stage 1.

Throughput 

Ink’s throughput has recently experienced a staggering 13x increase, jumping from 0.22 Mgas/s to over 3 Mgas/s placing it among the top five Layer 2s on growthepie for this metric. This growth closely correlates with the adoption of “The Academy” (Ink’s structured learning/onboarding initiative) which has coincided with a rise in contract deployments and NFT mints.

Stablecoin Market Cap 
 
USD₮0 selected Ink to be their launch partner for stablecoin which currently makes up the bulk of tacked stablecoins on Ink. Although we have seen a slight dip from all-time highs Ink is within the top 10 Layer 2s for this metric on growthepie. USD₮0 accounts for ~75% of TVS with ETH being the second largest contributor.

Transaction Costs  
 
Ink consistently provides low user costs for transactions currently clocking in at a median transaction cost of below $0.001

Onchain Economics 

Taking a look at Inks economics, we can see that they consistently generate daily revenue above $1k with an all-time high of $6.5k. Comparing this to an ATH of $1.85k in rent paid to Ethereum, it is not surprising that Ink is able to generate a healthy onchain profit.
