OnChain Indicators of Engaged DAO Voters
Summary:Engaged governance participants were identified as the top 25% of governance voters ranked by voting frequency.

The OP Stack accounts for over 69.8% of all Layer 2 transactions. The Superchain sees 14.1 M daily transactions, 63.8% of all Layer 2 transactions. The network boasts 530 Unique Apps, contributing to the Optimism Collective. It is estimated that 438.7 ETH will be contributed to the Optimism Collective in January—Data Fetched from the Superchain Health Dashboard.
Superchain IndexAfter collaborating closely with the Optimism team for months, Superchain Eco is proud to launch The Superchain Index, the official index of the chains in the Superchain Ecosystem pulled from the Superchain Registry to provide a source of truth for who is in the Superchain Ecosystem and what modifications are made to chains.Chains are categorized into three states:
🟢 Green: Fully compliant with the Standard Rollup Charter and governed by the Optimism Security Council.
🟡 Yellow: Partially compliant, pending final upgrades or Security Council migration.
⚫ Gray: Non-standard but contributing to the ecosystem and revenue, with potential to transition to green or yellow.

Soneium MainnetThe Soneium Mainnet is now live. Built on the OP Stack and Superchain, it provides tools for protecting content rights, enabling fair profit-sharing, and fostering collaboration between fans and creators.
During its testnet phase, Soneium recorded over 14 million active wallets and 47 million transactions. Sony has integrated tools like the SNFT Fan Marketing Platform for NFT distribution and S.BLOX crypto-asset exchange services, strengthening the ecosystem. The Soneium Spark incubator supports innovative projects in gaming, music, art, and social apps.
Soneium’s goal is to create a connected, fair, and creative digital space for developers, creators, and fans. Explore Soneium and start building today. Read about the Soneium mainnet launch here.
Swan Chain Computing ProviderThe Swan Chain Computing Provider (CP) supplies computational resources for the Swan network. It includes two types:
Fog Computing Provider (FCP): Handles high-end tasks like AI model training and Kubernetes deployments, requiring GPUs, high RAM, and bandwidth.
Edge Computing Provider (ECP): Focuses on edge tasks like Docker deployments and ZK-Snark proofs with lower hardware requirements.
CP accounts use a three-address system (Owner, Worker, Beneficiary) for task management and security. Providers stake SWAN tokens as collateral and earn rewards for completing tasks. CPs enable decentralized applications and resource sharing across the network. Read all the details here.
DRV Token LaunchThe DRV token launch marks the introduction of Derive’s native token, replacing LYRA and enabling a new governance and staking framework. With a total supply of 1 billion tokens, all LYRA and stkLYRA holders will have a 1:1 claim on DRV. DRV can be staked into stDRV on the Derive L2, where staked tokens participate in governance and earn rewards. Staking includes a 28-day unlock period, with the option for instant withdrawal at a 20% penalty.
The token launch also introduces incentives for early staking, allowing users to pre-stake DRV for stDRV and receive a 5% bonus. This program rewards engagement and sets the stage for Derive’s future growth. Read the launch program here.
Frax Finance frxETH V2Frax Finance has launched frxETH V2, an upgrade designed to enhance decentralized Ethereum staking while maximizing capital efficiency for validators. Here’s what frxETH V2 brings to the table:
Open Validator Access: Any Ethereum validator can join permissionlessly, supporting Frax’s mission as a decentralized crypto bank.
Low Entry Requirement: Validators can start with 8 ETH and borrow up to 24 ETH (or 31 ETH for whitelisted validators) for up to 4x leverage.
Performance-Driven Design: Borrowing ETH boosts efficiency, with interest rates incentivizing optimal performance and a pre-signed exit message as collateral.
Higher Yields: Validators earn directly, while $sfrxETH holders gain from lending interest and Curve Finance AMO, leading to better staking rewards.
