# Mythos Transaction count Methodology

## 1. Overview

The Mythos transaction count metric measures the daily number of unique transactions executed on the Mythos blockchain. This metric answers the business question "How much transaction activity is occurring on the Mythos network each day?" The calculation counts distinct extrinsics (Mythos's term for transactions) grouped by day, providing a fundamental measure of blockchain network activity and user engagement.

## 2. Data sources

The metric relies on the following raw data sources:

- **Mythos blockchain extrinsic records**: Raw transaction data from the Mythos blockchain containing unique extrinsic identifiers and block timestamps for each transaction executed on the network
- **Chain availability configuration**: Internal configuration data used to filter and validate chain data availability and ensure data quality standards are met

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Transaction data preparation
- **Purpose**: Extract and standardize raw transaction records from the Mythos blockchain
- **Logic**: Raw extrinsic records are sourced from Mythos blockchain data, with timestamps safely cast to ensure proper time handling and extrinsic identifiers cast as strings for consistent processing. Each record is tagged with 'mythos' as the chain identifier to distinguish it from other blockchain networks.
- **Key fields**: `block_timestamp` (when the transaction was included in a block), `extrinsic_id` (unique identifier for each transaction), `chain_id` (set to 'mythos')

### Component B: Daily aggregation
- **Purpose**: Group transactions by day and count unique transactions per day
- **Logic**: Transaction timestamps are truncated to day-level granularity to create daily boundaries. Records are then grouped by day, chain identifier, and product identifier (hardcoded as 'Mythos Substrate'). The system counts distinct extrinsic identifiers within each day to ensure duplicate transactions are not double-counted, even if they appear multiple times in the raw data.
- **Key fields**: `timestamp` (truncated to day), `timestamp_grain` (set to 'day'), `product_id` (set to 'Mythos Substrate'), `transaction_count` (distinct count of extrinsics)

### Final aggregation
- **Combining components**: The daily transaction counts are processed through a finalization macro that standardizes the schema structure, validates all identifiers for consistency, and implements a gap-filling strategy that inserts zero values for any missing days to ensure a complete time series
- **Currency conversion**: Not applicable - this is a count metric without monetary values
- **Time aggregation**: Daily boundaries are established using timestamp truncation, with the system maintaining day-level granularity throughout the calculation
- **Final calculation**: The final metric value represents the count of unique transactions (extrinsics) that occurred on the Mythos blockchain for each calendar day, with missing days filled with zero values to maintain data continuity
