On-Chain Insights
Recently LayerHub listed Abstract, so you can access advanced analytics and statistics of the Abstract Network. LayerHub provides detailed metrics on transactions, user activity and other important indicators, which makes the platform transparent and understandable for ecosystem members.
Key metrics after running Abstract mainnet:
1. Total badges 534,405. Only 77,040 wallets have more than 5 badges.
2. Total wallets 383,520: from which 194,772 made less than five transactions. 224,770 active in less than 3 days.

How to set up your Abstract wallet?
To get started, visit: http://abs.xyz
You have several options for logging in:
Google account
Email
Web3 wallet (eg. Phantom)
Linked passkey
Now this place will serve you as a guide on the Abstract Network, here you can track your progress (XP and Badges), watch streams, make transactions, find the best apps or tokens to interact with.
Once you signed in Abstract, you now need to add ETH to your newly created Abstract Global Wallet.
Landing page serves as an all-in-one platform. By sending funds to your Abstract wallet, you can begin exploring the ecosystem. There's no need for a Metamask wallet, as you can easily bridge funds with @deBridgeFinance.
Let's get started
Your interactions (trade, stream, etc.) will earn XP and badges, which could be helpful for the potential Airdrop.
Go to > Rewards and connect your X account to unlock rewards.
XP updates daily once you interact with the Abstract ecosystem. Additionally, you can earn badges by completing various tasks.
Not all badges are public, this way, Abstract prevents pure farming. The secret is to use apps organically - just explore them all.
There will most likely be some spotlighted apps every week too.
