# Active users (monthly) Methodology

## 1. Overview

Active users (monthly) measures the number of unique addresses that initiate revenue-generating transactions on Mantra Chain. This metric serves as a key indicator of network adoption and user engagement by identifying the unique transaction signers and message senders interacting with the blockchain. Data is aggregated at a monthly granularity to track the growth and retention of the Mantra Chain user base.

## 2. Data sources

- **Blockchain events**: `message` events from Mantra Chain

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Mantra Chain activity tracking

- **Purpose**: Extract unique user addresses from the primary message-passing layer of Mantra Chain.
- **Logic**: User addresses are extracted from the `sender` attribute within `message` events where the event type is defined as `message`. These addresses represent the originators of transactions and operations processed by the blockchain.
- **Key fields**: `event_attributes` (metadata containing the sender), `block_timestamp` (timing)

### Component B: Monthly aggregation

- **Purpose**: Calculate the total count of unique active users (monthly) per 30-day window.
- **Logic**: All identified sender addresses are grouped by 30-day windows. A distinct count is performed on the user addresses to ensure that each address is counted only once per 30-day rolling window, regardless of how many individual transactions or messages were initiated by that user.
