This dashboard looks at the ratio of ETH.RUNE and BNB.RUNE upgrades to THOR.RUNE and how that ratio has changed over time. The first visual in this dashboard looks at the total number of upgrades from each chain. The number of BNB.RUNE upgrades far outweighs the number of ETH.RUNE upgrades, making up 93% of all upgrades.

The number of upgrades rose steadily from April of 2021 to June of 2021, with a sudden drop in the few weeks preceding the network shutdown in summer of 2021. The next graph looks at the weekly volume of upgrades from each blockchain in USD. This graph follows a similar pattern to the previous graph, with a large outlier on January 3rd of 2022, where over $1.3 billion of BNB.RUNE was upgraded. This was mainly due to one whale, who upgraded 120,000 RUNE, although three other whales also upgraded their BNB.RUNE that day.
