What's Hot on Starknet? #1

We're tracking the hottest onchain flows, fresh Schizodio art, and the alpha you missed this week.

Every week, we track the pulse of the ecosystem through Prism, identifying the hottest apps on Starknet, showcasing fresh @schizodio artwork, and shining a spotlight on the protocols truly innovating in the ecosystem.

The data tells a story. Let's get into the numbers.

Active Accounts Growth

With Prism, growth stops being a buzzword, and is instead proven with onchain evidence.

Over the last 7 days, Daily Active Accounts on @Starknet have shown a healthy uptick, moving from 9,050 to 9,572.

• WoW Growth: 5.72%
• Net New: ~522 accounts added

This steady climb signals that users aren't just holding but they are actively engaging across the network.

Top 3 Trending Apps

Using Prism's Trending Contracts on a weekly timeframe, we identified where the liquidity and attention are actually flowing in the Starknet ecosystem. Here are the top performers and the why behind the ranking:

1. @extendedapp surged due to a massive spike in network fees generated through economic contributions from users. This directly aligns with the principle: higher user interactions, higher the value you generate as an application.

2. @avnu_fi, the aggregator is seeing a fantastic increase in users and wallet activity. The UX is sticking, and the volume follows.

3. @EkuboProtocol — driven by tremendous growth in UOPS (User Operations). As the liquidity layer for Starknet, Ekubo continues to be the engine room for efficient swaps.

Alpha Spotlight: @YieldStark

@YieldStark is a Bitcoin-first dApp on Starknet that allows you to put your BTC to work without giving up custody. It's bridging the gap between Bitcoin's security and Starknet's scalability.

Simple actions, real utility:

• Earn yield & Stake
• Move BTC seamlessly across protocols
• Swap between assets (wBTC, tBTC, solvBTC, STRK, USDC...) all from one dashboard.

The Edge: It brings DeFi utility to held Bitcoin without the custodial headaches.

Latest Updates:

• Testnet has been live and stress-tested for a month.
• Waitlist is live at yieldstark.xyz.
• Received a Seed Grant from the Starknet Foundation.

Conclusion

The ecosystem is heating up. From user growth to infrastructure like YieldStark maturing, the fundamentals are looking strong. We'll be back next week with more data from the Prism.
