Another spicy Friday data take: What if it’s all just market volatility? Priority fees (mostly paid by trading bots) make up a large majortiy of Superchain revenue, and they rise and fall right alongside ETH volatility. If our metrics don’t account for volatility, it’s hard to tell if we’re actually growing, or just falling for the noise. Need ideas for better metrics
