Our goal is to empower developers and users alike by providing them with a comprehensive overview of fundamental metrics, on-chain data, and multi-lingual educational resources, to help them make informed decisions when selecting their L2 chain to build on.\n\n![growthepie Landing Page](https://ixed.co/wp-content/uploads/growthepie/gtp-landing-page.png \"growthepie\")\n\n## Our goals and usage of funds \ud83d\ude80\n\n- **Building of our Knowledge hub**: Tied with our metrics, we provide educational content for both developers and consumers to understand data and their specific use cases more. Also, what each of the events readable from data means for a specific Layer-2 and what this means compared to other L2 chains. Additional educational content for each metric brings data-based decision-making closer to each end-user/developer/investor. \n- **Spanish localization** of our platform and educational content *(Knowledge)*.\n- **Introduction of more metrics**, namely: Fully Diluted Valuation, Smart Contract Creation, and Active Developers.\n- **Addition of more chains**\n\n\n## What can you do on our platform currently? \ud83e\uddd0\n\n### Fundamental Metrics Chain Comparisons\n\nCurrently, we provide a curated and easy-to-understand set of metrics for Layer-2s, focusing on 5 chains: Arbitrum One, Base, OP Mainnet, Immutable X, Polygon zkEVM, and zkSync Era.\n\nWe have 4 main categories that allow you to analyze the following fundamental metrics:\n\nActivity\n- **Daily Active Addresses**: The number of unique daily addresses that interacted with a chain.\n- **Transaction Count**: The number of daily transactions. We try to only count transactions that are executed by users/smart contracts, excluding system transactions.\n\nValue Locked\n- **Stablecoin Market Cap**: The sum of stablecoins that are locked on the chain.\n- **Total Value Locked**: The sum of all funds locked on the chain.\n\nEconomics\n- **Fees Paid by Users**: The sum of fees that were paid by users of the chain in gas fees or, in the case of chains like Immutable X, the amount of fees that were paid to the protocol wallet.\n- **Rent Paid to L1**: The gas fees paid by L2s to post transaction data & verification states onto Ethereum.\n- **Onchain Profit**: The net profit of L2s, accounting for revenues as L2 gas fees collected and expenses as posting transaction data & verification states onto Ethereum.\n\nConvenience\n- **Transaction Costs**: The median amount that is paid per transaction.\n\n\n![Fundamental Metrics](https://ixed.co/wp-content/uploads/growthepie/gtp-transaction-costs.gif \"growthepie Transaction Costs Metric\")\n\n\n### Blockspace Explorer\nRecently, we introduced our **Blockspace Explorer**:\n  - An overview of chains' high-level blockspace usage. All expressed in shares of a chain's total blockspace.\n  - A comparison for available Layer-2s for their usage in specific categories, ranging from NFT, Token Transfers to Socials applications. For each of these and more categories, we have a set of subcategories that allow you to filter in more detail and compare which category is more used on which chain.\n- For each category/subcategory users can see the most-used smart contracts ranked in a table and make sense of how the chain is being used\n\n![Blockspace Demo](https://ixed.co/wp-content/uploads/growthepie/gtp-blockspace.gif \"growthepie Blockspace Analytics Demo\")\n\n\n### Single Chain Metrics All-in-One\n\nYou can compare chains amongst each other with all the metrics mentioned. Additionally, you have chain-specific pages that allow you to have a glance at all metrics for the particular chain at once. *(Single Chain Page)*\n\n![Single Chain Overview](https://ixed.co/wp-content/uploads/growthepie/gtp-single-chain.gif \"growthepie OP Mainnet Metrics\")\n\n\n## What funding have we received so far and how are we funded in the future? \ud83d\udcb0\nWe have received initial funding from the Ethereum Foundation as part of the Layer 2 Community Grants, an Optimism Builders grant and one round of Gitcoin GG18. We want to keep [growthepie.xyz](https://www.growthepie.xyz) in the public good realm, this means we rely on **Public Goods funding** to develop the platform. Our team aims to do this long-term.\nThis is why we need your help to pay for infrastructure, our team and the creation of educational content. \n\n\n## The team (brief intro of each member) \ud83d\udc65\n\n- **Matthias**: Started to work in the blockchain/EVM space 5 years ago with his master thesis on the \u201cImplementation of blockchain-based local energy markets\u201d. He worked on grants for projects like Uniswap, starting growthepie.xyz as an Ethereum Foundation grant, and now also working for a crypto fund - supporting on the data due dilligence side of things.\n- **Manish**: With a solid background in software engineering, Manish has hands-on experience in developing user-friendly applications and working with blockchain technologies, as evidenced by his work on DogeAPI, a cryptocurrency payment platform.\n- **Tobias**: Background in product design as well as education & training for innovation and Design Thinking, for example designing and delivering educational courses for founders for Tech Open Air Berlin.\n- **Mike**: Recent graduate and very skilled full-stack developer, currently mostly working on frontend related tasks.\n- **Lorenz**: Student at RWTH Aachen University and founder of the Aachen Blockchain Club. His extensive knowledge about blockchain technology is of great value and he supports us with research and data related tasks.\n- **Nader**: Student at TUM Munich and another very skilled full-stack dev. Currently, mostly supporting on backend topics like data aggregation and database management. He\u2019s worked on several crypto projects before growthepie.xyz and is very skilled in extracting information from bytecode.\n- **Ahoura**: Another FH Aachen student and member of the blockchain club there. He was previously active in the Cosmos ecosystem but he\u2019s learning more and more about Ethereum\u2019s scaling solutions. He supports mainly with regards to social media and content creation.\n\nMore about the team on our [Contributors page](https://www.growthepie.xyz/contributors).\n\n\n## How do I reach growthepie.xyz? \ud83c\udf10\n\nVisit our platform [growthepie.xyz](https://growthepie.xyz) to enjoy our current set of metrics and single chain analysis. \ud83d\udcc8\nFollow us on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/growthepie_eth) \ud83d\udc26 and/or [Farcaster](https://warpcast.com/growthepie).
