"Small" LP Actions

    I answer the following questions: - What percent of LP adds to each pool is small (<$1k USD)? - Is there a relationship between the chain and the proportion of “small” LPs?

    Introduction

    Analysis

    I used the Thorchain database and then the liquidity_actions table to get the number of user-generated liquidity transactions inside this dashboard. Then, I filtered out those under $ 1,000 as "small_LP". Hence the percentage of liquidity transactions for each pool is obtained.

    At first, without looking at the chart, I think there is a meaningful relationship between the type of chain and the percentage of small_LP. So that the lower the fee of the chain, the greater the number of low-value transactions on it, and as a result, users use that chain to add small liquidity.

    Now let's look at the chart!

    As the diagram shows, liquidity pools on chains like Ethereum with relatively high transaction fees account for a lower percentage of small LPs. Though chains such as Terra and Thorchain, which have low transaction fees, cover a higher portion of small LPs.
