Definition of Blockchain GDP - The GDP metric measures the USD value of what end users pay in Fees to interact with a chain's applications [1] - The GDP metric excludes gas fees paid to the underlying chain [1] - An onchain transaction by an application's end user is classified as a Fee whenever the application is entitled to apply a take rate (0-100%) on it [1] - The GDP metric takes into account the total Fee paid by the end user [1] Calculation and Application - Example: a borrower on Aave pays $100 in interest on their loan; the Fee equals $100 [2] - The GDP metric is intentionally based on Fees, and not Revenue, so that the end user payments of widely used applications that have a 0% take rate, such as Uniswap & Morpho, are taken into account [2]
