Fantom's Stellar Q1 Performance: Market Cap Skyrockets, On-Chain Activity Explodes
May 08, 2024 at 08:00 am
In Q1 2024, Fantom (FTM), a Layer-1 protocol, saw its market cap surge 101% QoQ, driven by the crypto bull market. The ecosystem witnessed notable growth in key metrics: average daily transactions climbed to 247,000, excluding inscription-related activity, while the total amount of FTM staked increased by 17% QoQ. Despite a decrease in revenue denominated in FTM, the "Memecoin Mania" trend boosted Fantom's on-chain activity, resulting in a 64% QoQ surge in DEX volume.
Fantom's Stellar Q1 Performance: Market Capitalization Soars, On-Chain Activity Surges
New York, April 2024 - Fantom (FTM), a Layer-1 (L1) protocol, and its native token, FTM, have experienced remarkable growth and notable achievements in the first quarter (Q1) of 2024.
FTM Market Capitalization Witnesses 101% Surge QoQ
According to a comprehensive performance analysis conducted by Messari, amidst the emerging crypto bull market, Fantom has emerged as one of the primary beneficiaries, exhibiting substantial growth in key metrics and market capitalization.
FTM's circulating market capitalization witnessed a significant 101% quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) increase, leaping from $1.3 billion to $2.6 billion. This significant gain propelled Fantom up ten spots to 48th place among all tokens, currently ranked 58th. The token's rally has extended for two consecutive quarters, resulting in a remarkable fourfold increase since the end of Q3 2023.
Fantom's Revenue Shows Mixed Results
While Fantom experienced a 53% QoQ decline in revenue measured in FTM, amounting to 1.8 million FTM, revenue denominated in USD exhibited a modest 4% QoQ increase, reaching $1.2 million.
According to Messari, the revenue decline was primarily attributed to reduced inscription activity across all smart contract platforms in Q1. Nonetheless, Fantom maintained an upward trajectory in average daily transactions, excluding inscription-related activity, surpassing the Q3 average and achieving 247,000 daily transactions. Daily active addresses also rebounded, surging by 24% QoQ to 40,500.
Staking Developments and Network Participation
In Q1, the staking requirement for Fantom validators was significantly lowered from 500,000 FTM to 50,000 FTM, aiming to enhance accessibility. However, the number of active validators remained unchanged at 55.
Notably, the total amount of FTM staked increased by 17% QoQ, rising from 1.1 billion to 1.3 billion FTM. Consequently, the total dollar value of staked FTM surged by 135% QoQ, reaching $1.2 billion. Among proof-of-stake (PoS) networks, Fantom ranked 22nd in the dollar value of funds staked by the end of Q1.
"Memecoin Mania" Boosts Fantom On-Chain Activity
During the first quarter, Total Value Locked (TVL) denominated in USD experienced a substantial 59% QoQ increase, ascending from $810.8 million in Q4 to $1.28 billion.
Conversely, TVL-denominated in FTM decreased by 21% QoQ, indicating that the surge in USD-denominated TVL was partly attributed to FTM's price appreciation.
Fantom's average daily decentralized exchange (DEX) volume surged by an impressive 64% QoQ, from $10.2 million to nearly $176.8 million. In Q1, the "Memecoin Mania" trend contributed significantly to elevated on-chain activity across various networks, including Fantom.
Fantom's monthly DEX volume surpassed $1 billion in March, marking the first such occurrence since March 2023. The number of DEXs on Fantom increased to 31 by the end of Q1, with no single DEX dominating more than 30% of the market share.
Post-Exploit Response and Stablecoin Liquidity Enhancement
Following an exploit in the Multichain: Fantom Bridge, which affected stablecoins on Fantom in Q3 2023, the Fantom Foundation implemented measures to increase the liquidity of stablecoins.
As of Q1 2024, two independent third-party bridging solutions, Axelar (axlUSDC and axlUSDT) and LayerZero (lzUSDC and lzUSDT), have emerged. USDC remains the predominant stablecoin on Fantom, accounting for 98% of the stablecoin market cap. USDT also experienced considerable growth, with an 86% QoQ increase.
FTM Price Developments
The FTM token is currently trading at $0.7037, reflecting an 8.7% increase in price over the past seven days. However, it has experienced a decline of approximately 20% in the monthly time frame.
Conclusion
Fantom's remarkable performance in Q1 2024 solidifies its position as a prominent player in the crypto industry. With its market capitalization soaring, on-chain activity surging, and continued network developments, Fantom is poised for further growth and value creation in the evolving digital asset landscape.
