Networks Dataset Overview

The Networks Dataset allows users to explore metrics for all of the top networks. Quickly browse metrics in tables, visualize trends in charts, and deep-dive into an individual network to learn more about its on-chain usage, activity, and growth. This page includes a step-by-step guide on getting the most from Messari’s Networks Dataset.

Access Networks

To view the full list of the networks Messari tracks data from, go to the Datasets tab and select Networks. You can also access specific network data directly from the Project Page by clicking on Network Fundamentals and Statements in the left-side navigation menu. Screenshot 2025-09-19 at 12.46.40 PM.png

Pre-Built Views

Tables & Charts

Messari’s Networks Dataset can be viewed in a tabulated (table) or chart format.

Table Format

The Networks dataset opens, by default, in the Table format with the pre-built Key Metrics view, which includes metrics on such as:
  • Transactions and transaction fees
  • Average daily active addresses
  • Circulating marketcap
Screenshot 2025-09-19 at 12.47.50 PM.png Additional views include:
  • Usage: transactions and transaction fees, average daily active addresses, average daily new addresses, and average daily returning addresses
  • Contracts: total contract calls, new contracts deployed, average daily active contracts, average daily new contracts called, average daily returning contracts called, and average daily unique contract callers
At the bottom of each table is a Total column which provides the total of each column’s metric across all tracked networks. Note that Other Networks is an aggregated group of networks which Messari doesn’t yet fully support. Hover over this group’s associated tooltip icon to see which networks are included.

Chart Format

Switch to the Chart format by selecting Charts in the upper left corner. The Chart format includes the same data as that found in the Table format, divided into sections such as:
  • Key Metrics: circulating marketcap, transaction fees, daily transactions, daily active addresses, TVL, stablecoin marketcap, and DEX volume
  • Usage: new and returning addresses, successful transactions, and unsuccessful transactions
  • Contracts: total contract calls, new contracts deployed, active contracts, new contracts called, returning contracts called, and unique contract callers
Hover over the tooltip i icons to learn more about the metrics being measured. You can also interact with the charts by highlighting or excluding networks using the chart’s interactive legend. Screenshot 2025-09-19 at 12.48.23 PM.png

Sort & Filter Networks

Sort

In the Table format, the Networks dataset is sorted by 30D Transaction Fees by default. You can click on column headers to sort by other metrics.

Filter

You can filter networks in both the Table and Chart formats using the following methods:

Table Format Filters:

  • Search Networks: Search by network name or use the dropdown menus for assets and watchlists.
  • Timespan: Use the Span dropdown to filter data by timespan. It begins on 30D by default. Other options include 7D, 90D, 180D, 1Y, and 3Y.

Chart Format Filters:

  • Select Networks: The charts include 5 networks by default. Add or remove networks using the dropdown or the x icon next to a network’s name.
  • Timespan: As with the table format, filter data by timespan using the Span dropdown.
  • Chart-specific filters Click on a network name in the legend to include or exclude it from a chart.

Learn More About a Network

In Table format, click on a network’s name to open the preview panel, which includes important 30D change metrics and charts. Use the ^ icons to scroll through networks, or click View Network Page to open its Networks Fundamentals page in an adjacent tab. Screenshot 2025-09-19 at 12.49.04 PM.png
