World Mobile Chain

# World Mobile Chain Revenue Methodology

## 1. Overview

World Mobile Chain revenue represents the total on-chain transaction fees collected by the World Mobile network on a daily basis. This metric captures only transaction fees paid directly on the World Mobile Chain (including both Layer 1 data availability costs and Layer 2 execution costs) and excludes any service fees paid to World Mobile through other channels. The calculation aggregates all gas fees paid by users for transaction processing, converts them from WMTX tokens to USD, and presents them as daily revenue figures.

## 2. Data sources

The calculation uses the following raw data sources:
- **World Mobile Chain transaction records**: Complete transaction data including gas usage metrics, gas prices, and Layer 1 cost components for all transactions processed on the World Mobile Chain
- **WMTX token end-of-day price feeds**: Daily closing prices for the WMTX token used to convert fee amounts from WMTX tokens to USD values
- **Base chain token metadata**: Token contract information for WMTX token (address `0x3e31966d4f81c72d2a55310a6365a56a4393e98d`) since World Mobile Chain references the Base chain token for pricing

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Transaction data extraction
- **Purpose**: Extract and standardize World Mobile Chain transaction data with all necessary gas and pricing information
- **Logic**: Process raw World Mobile Chain transaction records to extract key fields including transaction identifiers, addresses, gas usage amounts, and pricing data. Convert all numeric fields to appropriate data types and reference the WMTX token from Base chain for pricing purposes. Extract both Layer 2 gas usage (`gas_used`, `gas_price`) and Layer 1 cost components (`l1_gas_used`, `l1_gas_price`, `l1_fee_scalar`) since World Mobile Chain operates as a Layer 2 solution
- **Key fields**: `block_timestamp`, `transaction_hash`, `from_address`, `to_address`, `gas_used`, `l1_gas_used`, `l1_gas_price`, `l1_fee_scalar`, `gas_price`, `token_address`, `token_symbol`

### Component B: Gas fee calculations
- **Purpose**: Calculate the total gas fee for each transaction by combining Layer 1 and Layer 2 cost components
- **Logic**: For each transaction, calculate two separate fee components. First, compute the Layer 2 gas fee by multiplying `gas_used` by `gas_price` and dividing by 1e18 to convert from wei to WMTX token units. Second, calculate the Layer 1 gas fee by multiplying `l1_gas_used` by `l1_gas_price` and `l1_fee_scalar`, then dividing by 1e18 for the same unit conversion. This dual calculation reflects the Layer 2 architecture where transactions incur both execution costs on Layer 2 and data availability costs on Layer 1
- **Key fields**: `l2_gas_fee`, `l1_gas_fee`, calculated from gas metrics and converted to token units

### Component C: Daily fee aggregation and USD conversion
- **Purpose**: Aggregate transaction fees by day and convert from WMTX tokens to USD values
- **Logic**: Group transactions by day using timestamp truncation to daily boundaries. For each transaction, sum the Layer 1 and Layer 2 gas fee components to get the total transaction fee in WMTX tokens. Aggregate all transaction fees within each day to get daily fee totals. Convert the daily WMTX fee amounts to USD using end-of-day WMTX token price feeds, maintaining the original decimal precision without additional decimal correction since gas calculations already handle proper unit conversion
- **Key fields**: `timestamp` (daily), `fees` (in USD), `chain_id`, `token_address`

### Final aggregation
- **Combining components**: Transaction-level gas fees are summed daily to create aggregate daily fee totals for the entire World Mobile Chain network
- **Currency conversion**: WMTX token amounts are converted to USD using end-of-day WMTX price feeds from the Base chain token contract
- **Time aggregation**: All calculations use daily boundaries with timestamp truncation to ensure consistent daily reporting periods
- **Final calculation**: Revenue equals the sum of all daily transaction fees since World Mobile Chain revenue consists entirely of on-chain gas fees collected from users. Any days without transactions are filled with zero values to maintain a continuous time series. The final chain identifier is set to 'worldmobilechain' regardless of the underlying token chain reference.
