Mint
Mint measures the total amount of ICP newly created and added to circulation over a selected period. This metric aggregates all minting transactions executed during the chosen timeframe, summing the amounts to provide a single value representing new token issuance.
How it’s calculated
- All minting transactions within the selected period are fetched and summed.
- Only transactions that introduce new ICP into circulation are counted.
- Values are updated continuously to reflect newly minted ICP as it occurs.
What this metric highlights
- Indicates the quantity of ICP entering circulation, which can impact total supply and network liquidity.
- Rising mint values may reflect rewards issuance, staking inflation, or protocol-driven token distribution.
Limitations
- Measures amounts minted, not the recipients or purpose of the issuance.
