Account Growth

Note: Documentation for these "Hedera Stats" are currently being developed.

Overview​

Account Growth tracks the number of new accounts created in the Hedera ecosystem over a specified time period. This metric focuses on accounts that actively transact but excludes smart contracts and accounts engaging in developer-related transactions. The data provides insight into organic ecosystem growth by measuring new non-developer accounts.

Hedera Data Access

To access this Hedera network statistic (and others) via Hgraph's GraphQL & REST APIs, get started here.

Methodology​

  • Accounts Considered: Includes newly created accounts that have executed transactions.
  • Exclusions:
    • Smart contracts.
    • Accounts engaging in specific developer-related transactions.
  • Aggregation:
    • Accounts are grouped by the selected period (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly).
    • The total count of unique new accounts is recorded for each period.

Data Representation​

Each period represents the number of newly created accounts that meet the above criteria. This allows users to analyze trends in ecosystem adoption and growth over time.

Additional Notes​

  • Account Growth provides an important metric for measuring ecosystem expansion and user adoption.
  • Since it excludes developer-related transactions, it focuses on real user activity.
