Things look ugly
Although cumulative trading volume has rallied to an all-time high, user activity on Sudoswap has declined consistently. Per data from Dune Analytics, the NFT swapping platform has seen a steady fall in the count of new users since August 2022. Similarly, the count of recurring users on the platform has since dipped.
For example, in August 2022, Sudoswap experienced an average of more than 800 new users every day. However, since the start of February, the platform’s average daily new user count has fluctuated between 50 and 20. On 23 February, it even hit a low of 19 new users.

Further, Sudoswap currently registers a steady decline in protocol revenue. The downward trend in transaction volume means there have been fewer users on the platform, resulting in a loss of fees for Sudoswap.
In fact, in the last 30 days, the total fees made by Sudoswap were $286,000, dropping by 8%. Within the same period, protocol revenue has also dropped by 28%, data from Token Terminal revealed.
