DappRadar DAO’s transactional trends have evolved since its inception. Up to 2023, 97% of fiat-equivalent transactions were conducted in RADAR, with the remainder denominated in RON and ETH. However, in 2024, USDC became the preferred payment currency, reflecting the DAO’s growing operational complexity and contributor onboarding.
Node validator earnings: Generated 375K RON in fees and staking rewards, supporting operational costs and loan repayments.
Affiliate marketing revenue: Introduced in December 2023, this revenue stream grew steadily in 2024 and is expected to expand in 2025.
Market-making activities: Managed through GSR, optimizing liquidity and trading efficiency.
Future growth projections: Validator node expansion across additional blockchains, with Chromia already operational as of Q4 2024.
Market making and treasury diversification: Transitioned from Wintermute to GSR, supported by RADAR-backed loans for liquidity management.
Loan repayments: The DAO started repaying its outstanding loan from DappRadar UAB, which covered early operational expenses between 2021 and 2023.
DCP Workstream Expenses: The primary operational cost category, covering contractor and contributor payments, reinforcing the DAO’s commitment to decentralization and community governance.
As the DAO expands its validator operations and diversifies revenue streams, financial sustainability is expected to strengthen in 2025 and beyond.
