Liquidity providers deposit funds into QuickSwap and receive trading fees from traders (supply-side fees).

QuickSwap is a non-custodial exchange protocol built on Polygon. QuickSwap was founded by Nick Mudge & Sameep Singhania and launched in 2020.

QUICK tokenholders own and govern the protocol. They currently take a cut of the total trading fees paid by traders (revenue).

# QuickSwap Tradeable assets Methodology

## 1. Overview

Tradeable assets measures the number of unique assets available for trading across QuickSwap V2 and QuickSwap V3. This metric reflects the breadth of token coverage and the diversity of the trading ecosystem supported by the protocol. Assets are identified through the creation of liquidity pools and trading pairs across multiple blockchain networks, providing an indicator of the protocol's growth and market reach.

## 2. Data sources

- **Blockchain events**: `PairCreated` events from `Factory` contracts, `Pool` events from `AlgebraFactory` contracts, and `PoolCreated` events from `Factory` contracts, covering Polygon, Base, and Manta
- **External data**: Asset metadata for symbol and decimal identification

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Asset identification

- **Purpose**: Extract all unique asset addresses from liquidity pool and pair creation events
- **Logic**: Token addresses are extracted from the `token0` and `token1` fields within `PairCreated`, `Pool`, and `PoolCreated` events across QuickSwap V2 and QuickSwap V3. These addresses are aggregated into a unified list of assets associated with their respective deployment chains and block timestamps.
- **Key fields**: `token0_address`, `token1_address`, `chain`, `block_timestamp`

### Component B: First appearance tracking

- **Purpose**: Determine the initial date each asset became available for trading on the protocol
- **Logic**: The earliest timestamp associated with each unique asset address is identified by grouping the unified asset list by address and chain. This process ensures that each asset is only counted once at the moment of its initial pool creation, preventing duplicate counts for assets that exist in multiple trading pairs.
- **Key fields**: `token_address`, `chain`, `block_timestamp`

### Component C: Cumulative aggregation

- **Purpose**: Calculate the total number of unique tradeable assets available over time
- **Logic**: The number of new assets is counted on a daily basis for each chain. A cumulative sum is then applied to these daily counts to determine the total running count of unique tradeable assets available on any given date. The resulting values are forward-filled to ensure data continuity across the entire time series.
- **Key fields**: `asset_count`, `tradeable_assets`, `timestamp`
