State of Stacks Q1 2023 Report by Messari
Messari released its State of Stacks report 🚀

Key Insights
⭐️ Average daily transactions and average daily active addresses increased 34% and 35% QoQ
⭐️ Ordinals and Inscriptions proved that the Bitcoin ecosystem has a serious demand for NFTs, fungible tokens, and DeFi. Stacks is perfectly positioned to meet that demand, with its added functionality and deep Bitcoin compatibility.
⭐️ Stacks 2.1 enabled trust-minimized bridging to Bitcoin and decentralized mining pools. Bitcoin assets bridged to Stacks such as sBTC and sOrdinals can be incorporated into sophisticated applications that wouldn’t be possible on Bitcoin.

Full report can be found here 👇
