Introduction

On a blockchain, a transaction is a formal activity. They are always started by calling the eth send Transaction function in MetaMask. Simple ether transfers, token transfers, the creation of new smart contracts, and a variety of other blockchain state changes are all possible. They are always started by a basic key pair or a signature from an outside account. Sending a transaction with MetaMask requires creating an options object in the format shown below using the ethereum.request function directly:

Methodology

The queries here covers all the distinct functions of the Ethereum core data to see the imprints of Metamask users and initially it looks into the activities of the metamask wallet users and then skips to high events that happen in the network to see the imprints such as NFT mints and token transfers.

Most of the transactions done by the users are for approval and then for sync still it is seen that the users are there in all activities of the Ethereum network.

The table of Ethereum transfers is displayed over time with the transactions and the volume.

The transactions done by the Metamask wallet users for the chosen period of time for transferring ETH is shown here and it is seen that in recent times it has increased abruptly to several orders.

The volume of the ETH tokens that are transferred by the Metamask users are charted here and it is seen that the volume is decreasing in the recent days compared to the previous year and this can be assumed because of the token price fluctuation and gas fee.

Other tokens that are transferred by the Metamask wallet users are charted and is displayed here with the transactions done and the volume

The chart resembles the same as that of ETH transfer and this indicates that the users are using this wallet for other transfer of tokens in the network.

The plot scatters the volume of other tokens that are transferred to different destinations by these metamask users and it indicates that the volume is also decreasing when compared to the previous year and it can also be due to the total market crash in the recent days.

The chart here shows the NFT minting events that the Metamask users have participated.

Over the period of time, it is seen that the Metamask users became the part of NFT minting process even in the early period this has begun and was dormant and again there is a hike in the number of NFT users in the recent days.

The chart here shows that the Metamask users prefer to use uniswap platform over the sushiswap and it covers more than 75% of the transactions.
