    BNB-BUSD pool dominates the weekly swap volume

    On most weeks, here are the top 3 pools by swap count:

    1. BNB-BUSD
    2. BNB-BNB
    3. BNB-ETH

    People really seem to like BNB!

    The number of unique swappers are more spread out

    Comparing ther weekly stats for the number of unique swappers per pool, we find no one pool dominates on most week (with a few exceptions in September). On most weeks, BNB-BUSD, ETH-ETH and BNB.BNB lead the charts.

    BNB-BUSD leads the weekly swap volume in USD

    Similar to the swap count above, BNB-BUSD leads the weekly swap volume with millions of USD value swapped each week. Most weeks this pool is doing 10M+ USD volume and in some weeks as high as ~70M USD.

    ETH-ETH and BNB-BNB are also doing quite significant volumes but not as much as the BNB-BUSD pool.

    Comparing Swaps to Asset or RUNE

    There's no clear trend whether the users are swapping to RUNE or Assets. Most weeks the ratio is close to 50-50.

    July hack on THORChain spiked the swap fees

    The weekly swap fees generated follow a similar trend as the swap count and swap volume we saw above.

    However, there's an anomaly that shows up which is the July hack for Thorchain that caused THORChain’s Multi Chain Chaos Net (MCCN) to halt. The multi-chain chaos net was hacked for around 2400 ETH and as an assortment of other tokens, the total estimated loss resulting from the incident is around $6.9M, going by the attacker’s account.

    Conclusion

    1. BNB pools dominate the swap volume!
    2. The number of unique swappers is more evenly spread out
    3. The July hack shows up like a lighthouse on the charts!
