# KAP Games Fees Methodology

## 1. Overview

Kapital DAO fees represent the total revenue generated by Kapital DAO from gaming organizations using their platform services. This metric captures all fee payments made to Kapital DAO's treasury, including both ERC-20 tokens and native ETH, aggregated daily in USD terms. The calculation identifies payments by monitoring transfers to Kapital DAO's specific multisig wallet address and classifies all activity under the gaming business sector.

## 2. Data sources

- **Ethereum token transfer events**: Parsed `Transfer` events showing ERC-20 token movements to Kapital DAO's multisig wallet
- **Ethereum native ETH transaction traces**: Native ETH transaction records capturing direct ETH payments to the multisig address  
- **End-of-day token price feeds**: USD price data for all tokens received as fees
- **Token metadata**: Contract information including decimal precision for proper amount normalization

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: ERC-20 token fee collection
- **Purpose**: Captures all ERC-20 token payments made to Kapital DAO
- **Logic**: Filters Ethereum token transfer events where the recipient (`to_address`) matches Kapital DAO's multisig address `0xfa3df5c014bbd5a6a6d1047b82331917c3f9bb9d`. Each transfer represents a fee payment from gaming organizations. The `value` field contains the raw token amount, `token_address` identifies the specific token, and transaction metadata provides timing and context.
- **Key fields**: `value` (fee amount), `token_address` (fee token), `block_timestamp` (payment timing), `transaction_hash` and `log_index` (unique identifiers)

### Component B: Native ETH fee collection  
- **Purpose**: Captures native ETH payments made directly to Kapital DAO
- **Logic**: Filters Ethereum native transaction flows where the `account_address` matches Kapital DAO's multisig address and the `value` is positive, indicating incoming ETH. This captures direct ETH fee payments that don't go through ERC-20 token contracts.
- **Key fields**: `value` (ETH amount), `block_timestamp` (payment timing), `account_address` (receiving wallet)

### Component C: Fee classification and standardization
- **Purpose**: Applies consistent business classifications to all fee types
- **Logic**: Both ERC-20 and native ETH fees are classified with identical metadata: `business_line` as 'Gaming', `market_sector_id` as 'gaming', `business_segment_id` as 'game', and `product_id` as null. All activity is tagged with version 'v1' and chain identifier 'ethereum'.
- **Key fields**: All fees receive standardized business dimension classifications

### Final aggregation
- **Combining components**: ERC-20 token fees and native ETH fees are combined using a union operation, creating a unified fee dataset with consistent schema and classifications
- **Currency conversion**: Raw token amounts are adjusted for decimal precision based on token metadata, then converted to USD using end-of-day price feeds matched by token address and date
- **Time aggregation**: All fees are aggregated to daily grain using `timestamp_trunc` to the day level, with `timestamp_grain` set to 'day' 
- **Final calculation**: The final metric represents the sum of all fee payments to Kapital DAO in USD terms per day, with zero-fill strategy applied to ensure complete daily time series coverage. Chain availability filters ensure only supported chain data is included in results.
