At the top of the Token Dashboard, you’ll see active addresses, trading volume, total value locked, and Dex Tokens Marketcap across all decentralized exchanges on the Cardano blockchain. These stats can be broken down by timeframe, and you can also view the percentage change for each, giving you a general idea of how active the market is.

The next section in the Market Overview is Fees Generated, broken down by DEX. It can be adjusted to show total or share graphs across various timeframes. At the bottom of the Token Dashboard, you'll find protocol-level data including DEX volume, trades, users, daily active users (DAU), fees, TVL, and more.

These tools help traders, market makers, and liquidity providers quickly identify where the most activity is before providing liquidity or trading a token.
