Chain Ecosystem Analysis

Produce a comprehensive overview of a blockchain ecosystem by combining chain-level metrics with protocol, bridge, stablecoin, and user data.

Workflow

Step 1 - Resolve the chain entity

If the chain slug is unknown or ambiguous, resolve it first.

defillama:resolve_entity
  entity_type: "chain"
  name: "<user-provided name>"

Step 2 - Chain-level metrics

Fetch aggregate TVL, fees, revenue, DEX volume, and trends.

defillama:get_chain_metrics
  chain: "<slug>"

Key fields: tvlbase, chainfees1d, chainrevenue1d, appfees1d, volumedexs1d, tvlbase7dpctchange, tvlbase30dpct_change.

Step 3 - Top protocols on the chain

Identify the largest protocols by TVL on this chain.

defillama:get_protocol_metrics
  chain: "<slug>"

Step 4 - Bridge flows

Measure capital entering and leaving the chain.

defillama:get_bridge_flows
  chain: "<slug>"

Positive net flow = capital inflow (bullish). Negative = outflow.

Step 5 - Stablecoin supply

Assess stablecoin liquidity available on the chain.

defillama:get_stablecoin_supply
  chain: "<slug>"

Step 6 - User activity

Fetch active addresses and transaction counts.

defillama:get_user_activity
  chain: "<slug>"

Output Format

Present the report with these sections in order:

1. Chain Overview - Summary paragraph: what the chain is known for,

current positioning in the market.

1. Key Metrics - Table of TVL, fees, revenue, DEX volume, and

percentage changes.

1. Top Protocols - Top 5-10 protocols by TVL with category and TVL.
2. Bridge Activity - Net flows, top bridges, inflow vs outflow breakdown.
3. Stablecoin Liquidity - Total stablecoin supply on chain, top

stablecoins, and trend direction.

1. User Activity - Active addresses, transaction counts, growth trends.

Tips

• Rising stablecoin supply + positive bridge flows = capital accumulating

on chain (bullish signal).

• Compare chain metrics to the previous period to identify momentum.
• If a single protocol dominates TVL (>50%), note the concentration risk.
• DEX volume relative to TVL indicates capital efficiency.
• Use startdate / enddate for custom date ranges when analyzing

specific periods (e.g., startdate: "2025-01-01", enddate: "2025-03-31").
