[Temp Check] Analytics Hub for Uniswap’s Revitalization and Growth Program

Summary

This proposal seeks to utilize Forse to help analyze the effectiveness of the four other chains the Uniswap community chooses as part of the Uniswap Revitalization and Growth Program.

Motivation

Analysis of the Uniswap Revitalization and Growth Program was delivered in March 2025, and there has been both positive feedback as well as requests to apply the program to other chains, especially Unichain. However, after discussing with various Uniswap DAO participants, as the Unichain incentives program is still ongoing, it was communicated that it would be beneficial to assess other chains that went through the incentive program first before revisiting Unichain assessment.

What is Forse?

Forse, built by StableLab, is a data and intelligence platform designed to help blockchains and DeFi protocols measure, analyze, and optimize their growth and operational efficiency. By integrating onchain user and network metrics with offchain data, Forse provides actionable insights that drive more thoughtful decision-making and showcase the tangible benefits of the Unichain ecosystem.

With deep expertise in protocol operations and DAO governance, Forse will allow Unichain stakeholders to make data-backed strategic decisions. Our dashboards and analytics solutions enhance transparency, measure the impact of initiatives, and demonstrate Unichain’s competitive advantages.

We work closely with protocol teams to understand their unique objectives and tailor our analyses using extensive datasets. Our experience with leading DAOs, including Sky (FKA MakerDAO), Arbitrum, Optimism, and Uniswap, positions Forse as the ideal partner for delivering a robust, data-driven analytics solution customized for Unichain.

Team

Dr. Christian Ziegler is the CTO at StableLab. Previously, he worked as a researcher at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), where he wrote his doctoral thesis on DAOs. In 2018, he co-founded Blockcurators GmbH. Christian has several published scientific articles, including a Taxonomy of DAOs; scoring methodologies for DAOs; network analysis of DAOs; and classification of DAO proposals using LLMs; among others.

Johannes Loewe is the Data Lead at StableLab, where he focuses on all stages of AI and ML development, from experimentation to deployment. Before joining StableLab, he was a Freelance AI & Blockchain Software Engineer. He also has experience with DAOs, being a founding member of PretzelDAO in Munich. He holds a Bachelor’s degree from Radboud University in the Netherlands and a Master’s degree in Machine Learning from NUI-Galway in Ireland.

Marcos Miranda is the Head of Product at StableLab. With 6 years of experience in Product Management, focusing on Web3 and Analytics products, he is also experienced in building DeFi protocols, having previously worked for other protocols in the space.

Methods

Building upon the frameworks used in the original analysis, this proposal extends the same level of detail and transparency across four additional chains. As before, our methodology combines statistical modeling, user segmentation, and performance benchmarking ensuring the surfaced insights are valuable to the DAO.

Our methods will include:

Time-series data analysis across key protocol metrics, such as TVL, volume, Liquidity Provision, and Activity. Difference-in-Differences modeling to highlight causal impact of incentives on key protocol metrics. Cohort Analysis of LPs and general users, with different segmentations based on, pool type usage, and general behavior. Efficiency Metrics to track TVL and Volume per dollar of incentives spent, with pool based segmentations. User Acquisition Cost, retention and stickiness indicators to analyze long-term impact of incentives on the aforementioned segmentations . Rewards flow mapping to visualize post-incentive asset movements and claim, held, and sold behaviors. Specification

The insights and graphs produced as a result of this analysis will be displayed in the already existent Uniswap Incentives terminal, alongside the outcomes of our previous work, effectively creating an analytics hub showcasing:

Incentive ROI and impact quantification in terms of TVL and Volume generated per dollar of incentives. User Segmentation and retention analysis, enabling the understanding of different user types, their acquisition cost and likelihood to remain in the ecosystem.. Campaign Efficiency Analysis, visually representing comparisons on the best cost-to-growth performance across pools and chains. Benchmark and Comparative Analysis, featuring comparisons in terms of performance and growth with other relevant ecosystems and protocols. Flow Analysis on Rewards, highlighting behaviours and destination of rewards. We believe extending our analysis into 4 additional chains will provide Key Uniswap Stakeholders with a more comprehensive view of how incentives are performing to further optimize for the future initiatives. To see Forse in action, explore our interactive terminal showcasing our previous analysis of the Uniswap Revitalization and Growth Program for Arbitrum, Base, Blast, and Scroll.

Budget Request

The proposal requests $60,000 worth of UNI to analyze the further impact of the the Uniswap Revitalization and Growth Program to analytics modules utilized in the interactive terminal. The dashboard will aim to be delivered by the end of Q2 of 2025. Forse will receive the budget only once the terminal is delivered, similar to the past analysis to ensure accountability to Uniswap DAO.
