One major metric that has seen a significant increase in the Hedera network is the number of daily active users, which rose by an impressive 348% over the last quarter. This suggested that the network had been able to maintain a steady user base despite the decline in transactions.

Signs of growth

Besides growing active user numbers, the revenue generated by Hedera has also increased. This is due to the growing TVL on the network, as users continued to deposit their assets into the Hedera network.

The data also showed a surge in development activity on the network. This increase in activity suggested that new updates and upgrades could be on the horizon. The rise could help to address any issues that may contribute to a decline in transactions and further boost the growth and adoption of Hedera.
