# Active users (monthly) Methodology

## 1. Overview

Active users (monthly) measures the number of unique addresses that execute transactions on Ajuna Substrate. This metric serves as a key indicator of network adoption and on-chain engagement. Each unique address is counted exactly once within a 30-day rolling window, regardless of the frequency or type of interactions performed.

## 2. Data sources

- **Blockchain events**: `extrinsics` from Ajuna Substrate, covering Ajuna Substrate

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Transaction sender extraction

- **Purpose**: To identify individual addresses initiating activity on the Ajuna Substrate blockchain.
- **Logic**: Transactional data is parsed from `extrinsics`. The address for each transaction is extracted from the signer field (identified as the `id` in the source data) and categorized as a transaction sender.
- **Key fields**: `block_timestamp` (timing), `id` (user address)

### Component B: Monthly aggregation

- **Purpose**: To calculate the total count of unique active addresses per 30-day window.
- **Logic**: Timestamps are truncated to a monthly grain using UTC boundaries. A distinct count of user addresses is performed for each 30-day window. This process ensures that multiple transactions from the same address within a 30-day rolling window are consolidated into one unique active user.
- **Key fields**: `block_timestamp` (truncation), `user_address` (unique identification)
