sure i can figure this out if I spent some time on it but don't have time so can anyone help me understand discrepancy between polymarket's reported DAU? Token Terminal showing ~400 (yes, only 400) daily active addresses whereas Dune (by @rchen8) is showing ~25,000 daily active traders. will send $10 USDC to first correct answer / best answer. thank you! https://tokenterminal.com/explorer/projects/polymarket/metrics/active-addresses-daily https://dune.com/rchen8/polymarket

They're measuring different things. I'm not sure what Token Terminal is measuring because that dashboard's underlying data isn't clear to me, at least without an account. But the Dune query (https://dune.com/queries/3343123/5601860) is measuring all of the distinct addresses that are participating in transactions with the market buy or market sell topics (found in the transaction logs for a Polymarket transaction). This seems far more rigorous/accurate to me. I'd be willing to bet that Token Terminal is failing to take into consideration all of the Proxy Wallets that users are using to trade on Polymarket and may only be measuring distinct external addresses interacting with PM contracts.

got it. yeah agree that Richard's seems much more comprehensive and also Dune allows you to inspect the code! I have no idea if Token Terminal offers that.
