Question: Analyze new locks created on Velodrome Finance. What durations are most common? Which wallets have locked the most in the last 4 weeks? Which pools are wallets voting for with their locked tokens most often?

Introduction:

Velodrome is an AMM (Automatic Market Maker) designed to provide deep liquidity, low swapping fees, and low slippage. As a public good, it supports the development and growth of the Optimism ecosystem.

Velodrome rewards liquidity providers and active governance participants through VELO (our native token; see the next section for definitions) and veVELO distribution. Liquidity providers (LPs) receive VELO emissions. Vote-escrow VELO (veVELO) holders vote on which liquidity pools receive VELO emissions. In return, voters receive the trading fees and bribes collected by the pairs they vote for. This structure helps incentives flow to the most valuable pairs for the ecosystem.[1]
