# Active users (monthly) Methodology

## 1. Overview

Active users (monthly) is calculated as the number of unique addresses that execute revenue-generating transactions on Flow EVM. This metric is utilized to quantify the scale of the distinct user base engaging with the network's EVM-compatible environment. Activity is tracked over 30-day rolling windows to provide a standardized measure of network adoption and utility.

## 2. Data sources

- **Blockchain events**: Transaction data, covering Flow EVM

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Flow EVM transaction parsing

- **Purpose**: Identify the initiators of on-chain activity within the EVM environment.
- **Logic**: Transaction records are retrieved from Flow EVM. The `from_address` is extracted for every transaction to identify the primary signer responsible for initiating state changes and paying associated gas fees.
- **Key fields**: `from_address` (user identification), `block_timestamp` (timing)

### Component B: Monthly aggregation

- **Purpose**: Determine the total count of distinct active participants per 30-day window.
- **Logic**: Transactions are truncated to a 30-day rolling granularity based on UTC timestamps. Duplicate occurrences of the same `user_address` within a 30-day window are filtered out. The final metric is calculated by counting the unique addresses that initiated at least one successful transaction during the 30-day window.
- **Key fields**: `user_address` (deduplicated identifier)

Blockchains (L1)

Validators process transactions and receive fees from users (supply-side fees).

Flow is a smart contract platform for decentralized applications (a blockchain). Flow was founded by Roham Gharegozlou, Dieter Shirley and Mikhael Naayem and launched in 2019.

FLOW holders own and govern the protocol. They currently don’t take a cut of the total transaction fees paid by users (revenue). Flow’s investors include a16z, Coatue, Coinfund, Fabric Ventures, etc.
