Methodology & Limitations: This Index is based on analysis of public blockchain transaction data. Our methodology includes filters designed to isolate smaller, wallet-to-wallet transfers under $10,000, which we use as a proxy for “retail” or consumer-scale payments. This threshold is an analytical assumption; while it helps remove larger institutional or speculative trades, it does not guarantee that all included transactions are truly consumer payments. Similarly, wallet activity is inferred using best-effort heuristics, which may result in some misclassification. Blockchain data is inherently pseudonymous and incomplete. This report does not capture off-chain transactions or private transfers, and should be considered directional rather than comprehensive.
