Hop Whales
Q3. Are whales choosing Hop to go to L2s? Or are they choosing the native bridges? Compare Hop vs the native bridges for Polygon, Optimism, and Arbitrum over the following metrics: unique users on each, frequency of use, and the average amount of assets moved on each?
Methodology
To answer all the questions of this bounty, etuereum_udm_events table has been used. By placing the bridge addresses of the relevant protocols as to_address, we have answered all the questions of this bounty. By placing from_address as unique addresses and by placing the value of usd as the amount of assets transferred to the second layer. By placing symbol as assets that have been transferred to the second layer and by placing transactions as the frequency was used.

We want to compare the amount of assets transferred by the whales to layer 2 through the Hope protocol with the polygon, optimism and arbitrage protocols. We want to know how much assets the whales transfer to the second layer from each protocol. Let's look at the graphs and statistics below.
About $ 220 million transferred to Layer 2 through the top 10 whales As we can see, the top whale has transferred about $ 60 million through the Hope protocol.
About $ 1.5 billion has been transferred across the Polygon native Bridge to Layer 2, and as we can see, the top whale has transferred about $ 350 million.
About $ 1.7 billion has been transferred through the Arbitrum native bridge to Layer 2, and as we can see, the top whale has transferred about $ 800 million.
About $ 195 million transferred via the optimism native Bridge to Layer 2, and as we can see, the top whale transferred about $ 50 million.
We see that about 80,000 unique users transfer their assets to Layer 2 through the HOP protocol. Most users transferred their assets on June 1, 2022.
We see that about 1 million unique users transfer their assets to Layer 2 through the Polygon Protocol. Most users transferred their assets on December 22, 2021.
We see that about 395,000 unique users transfer their assets to Layer 2 through the Arbitrum protocol. Most users transferred their assets on September 12, 2021.
We see that about 190,000 unique users transfer their assets to Layer 2 through protocol optimization. Most users transferred their assets on September 12, 2021.
The average number of assets transferred by Hope Protocol bridge is about 280 assets per day
The average number of assets transferred by the native bridge of Polygon is about 2,000 assets per day
The average number of assets transferred by the native bridge of Polygon is about 1300 assets per day
The average number of assets transferred by the native bridge of Polygon is about 570 assets per day
As we can see, Polygon network with more than 1.3 million transfer transactions, has been the most used by users
On average, about $ 2.7 million a day is transferred to Layer 2 by the Hope Protocol
On average, about $ 14 million a day is transferred to Layer 2 by the polygon bridge protocol
On average, about $ 13 million a day is transferred to Layer 2 by the arbitrum bridge protocol
On average, about $ 2.6 million a day is transferred to Layer 2 by the optimism bridge protocol
