This entry is part of the series: Mirror Entries Analysis. Each week, Post3 utilizes data extraction and data analysis techniques to deliver insightful reports with information concerning authors, articles, revenue, chains, keywords, and more, derived from exploring Mirror data.

A filter is applied to the extracted data. For instance, entries with one-word titles and bodies with less than 55 words are not considered to minimize the noise and incentivize good writing practices.

On week 15 we tackle the following questions:

1. What are the general statistics?

2. How does the user activity change over the week?

3. Who are the authors from whom people have collected the most?

4. Which entries were the most collected?

5. Which authors/publications generated the most revenue?

6. Which entries generated the most revenue?

7. What was the networks/chains usage?

⚠️ Note: The number of collections/mints of some entries might have changed at the time I’m writing.

Let's begin to analyse 932 posts collected from week 15.

By analyzing weekly statistics, we can gain insights into user activity and identify any imbalances in collection and revenue distributions. Let's explore the total collected and earned revenue (in USD) along with the average (mean), middle value (median), and spread (standard deviation) of these metrics.

| Features    | Total    | Mean     | Median   | Std      |
| ----------- | -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- |
| Collections | 3310.0   | 3.6      | 0.0      | 81.2     |
| Revenue     | 7173.9   | 7.9      | 0.0      | 162.9    |

While there are several ways to measure the user activity on Mirror, one that gives us a better understanding of the writers' activity, is by observing the total of articles created per day of the week, along with the number of collections and revenue. By visualizing these three metrics in a single chart, we can identify potential correlations between them.

The number of times an article has been collected/minted serves as a valuable metric to understand an author's popularity on Mirror. The “Author“ is the publication/newsletter, some authors such as protocols and ecosystems have several contributors that write to their publications. Let’s take a look at the ones whose work has attracted more collectors.

Below is the list of the authors/publications with the most collections:

1. ZeroLend

2. Ethena Labs

3. Elys Network

4. Zyfi

5. Layer3

6. Based Penguins

7. BASED NOUNS

8. S1

9. ORA

10. assisterr.xyz

11. WOOFi

12. Cellula

Some authors publish several times in a weekly period, which grants them more collections than others. Hence we need to take a look at entries individually, to see which ones performed better. These are the top entries:

1. Announcing Zero Gravity Voyage 1: The Journey From Zero to Zillion Has Begun

2. Sats Campaign Update: $ENA

3. Build your social reputation on Elys Network

4. Free txs for zkPengz Holders

5. Driving Onchain Growth on Linea

6. You need to know About Based Penguins?

7. Introducing $BNOUN: The First LNFT (Liquid NFT) on Base

8. Second Superlaunch on S1 - Kim Exchange

Revenue serves as an indicator of one's ability to attract and retain people to mint their content. Here we’ll take a look at the authors that generated the most revenue from minted entries, and how it correlates with collections.

Below is the list of authors/publications with the most revenue:

1. Based Penguins

2. ZeroLend

3. Ethena Labs

4. Elys Network

5. Zyfi

6. Layer3

7. BASED NOUNS

8. S1

9. ORA

10. WOOFi

11. Cellula

12. Kim Exchange

Just as for collections, revenue must be studied individually. People may be loyal to their favourite authors, but in the end, they will mint what they really like or find useful. Studying entries individually is important for writers to understand what kind of content people are willing to mint, and at what price. Below, are the entries with the most revenue:

1. You need to know About Based Penguins?

2. Announcing Zero Gravity Voyage 1: The Journey From Zero to Zillion Has Begun

3. Sats Campaign Update: $ENA

4. Build your social reputation on Elys Network

5. Free txs for zkPengz Holders

6. Driving Onchain Growth on Linea

7. Introducing $BNOUN: The First LNFT (Liquid NFT) on Base

8. Second Superlaunch on S1 - Kim Exchange

Understanding the usage of L2 chains for minting NFT articles, is key for writers to decide which network should they use. The following pie chart only compares the usage, other metrics should be taken into account, such as the type of articles that are being published in each chain and so on.

On week 15, Optimism dominates with 94.0% of network usage. In the second position, we have Zora with 3.3%. The third most used network is Linea with 1.1%. Followed by Polygon with 0.9% and finally Base with 0.8%.
