# Bloom Trading Bot Revenue Methodology

## 1. Overview

Revenue represents the total USD value of trading fees collected by the Bloom Trading Bot protocol on Solana. The metric captures all SOL payments sent to the bot's designated fee collection address, converting them to USD to provide a standardized measure of the protocol's fee income. This metric answers the business question: "How much revenue is the Bloom Trading Bot generating from trading fees on a daily basis?"

The calculation follows a straightforward approach: identify all SOL transfers to the fee collection address, aggregate them daily, and convert to USD using end-of-day price feeds.

## 2. Data sources

- **Solana native transfers**: SOL transfer events on the Solana blockchain, specifically transfers sent to the Bloom Trading Bot fee collection address
- **End-of-day price feeds**: Token price data for converting SOL amounts to USD values
- **Transaction metadata**: Solana transaction details including signers, timestamps, and amounts

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Fee collection identification
- **Purpose**: Identifies all SOL payments sent to the Bloom Trading Bot as trading fees
- **Logic**: Filters Solana native transfer events for transfers sent to the specific fee collection address `7HeD6sLLqAnKVRuSfc1Ko3BSPMNKWgGTiWLKXJF31vKM`. Excludes any transfers where the transaction signer is also the fee collection address itself, preventing double-counting of internal transfers or bot operations. Captures the transfer amount, transaction ID, timestamp, and transaction signer for each fee payment.
- **Key fields**: `block_timestamp` for timing, `transaction_id` for uniqueness, `transaction_signer` for user identification, `amount` for SOL transfer value, `to_address` for fee destination validation

### Component B: Daily fee aggregation
- **Purpose**: Aggregates all fee collections into daily totals and converts to standard SOL units
- **Logic**: Groups all fee transfers by day using timestamp truncation to daily boundaries. Converts amounts from lamports (Solana's smallest unit) to SOL by dividing by 1e9. Sums all fee transfers within each day to get total daily fee collection in SOL. Maintains chain ID as 'solana' and token address as the SOL token identifier for downstream processing.
- **Key fields**: `timestamp` truncated to day, `chain_id` set to 'solana', `token_address` for SOL, `fees` as aggregated daily SOL amount

### Component C: USD conversion
- **Purpose**: Converts daily SOL fee totals to USD values using market prices
- **Logic**: Takes the daily aggregated SOL fee amounts and converts them to USD using end-of-day price feeds for SOL. The conversion uses the `convert_to_usd_and_correct_decimals` macro with USD conversion enabled but decimal correction disabled, since amounts are already in proper SOL units. This ensures all revenue values are expressed in a common USD currency for comparison and analysis.
- **Key fields**: `fees` converted to USD, `timestamp` preserved for time-series analysis, `chain_id` and `token_address` maintained for context

### Final aggregation
- **Combining components**: The revenue metric directly uses the USD-converted fee values without additional aggregation, since fees and revenue are equivalent concepts for this trading bot protocol
- **Currency conversion**: SOL amounts are converted to USD using end-of-day price feeds, ensuring consistent valuation timing across all revenue calculations
- **Time aggregation**: Data is aggregated to daily boundaries using timestamp truncation, with all transfers within a calendar day summed together
- **Final calculation**: Revenue equals the total USD value of all trading fees collected by the Bloom Trading Bot on each day, with zero values filled for days when no fees were collected to maintain complete time series continuity
