Arbitrum Orbit Chains Revenue Dashboard by Lampros DAO

Following the launch of our Arbitrum Orbit Chains Activity Dashboard, we’re excited to share the next step in our data tooling journey, a new Dune dashboard focused entirely on tracking revenue contributions from Orbit chains settling on Arbitrum One.

Where the first dashboard highlighted usage, gas metrics, and adoption patterns, this one zooms in on the economic layer, helping delegates, chain teams, analysts, and treasury stakeholders understand how and how much value Orbit chains are contributing back to the Arbitrum ecosystem.

Why This Dashboard?

Orbit chains are scaling quickly, with many now posting their state roots and settlement data directly on Arbitrum One. Every batch submission contributes ETH fees, forming a critical part of Arbitrum’s revenue stream.

Until now, it hasn’t been easy to track:

  • Which chains are contributing the most
  • How much total revenue is flowing back
  • What the broader economic patterns look like

This dashboard fills that gap by making revenue flows transparent and comparable, updated in near real-time.

Who We Are

We are Lampros DAO, an open-community collective focused on development, research, governance, and educational initiatives within the Arbitrum ecosystem. We contribute through protocol development, data analysis, governance participation, and public educational initiatives.

Our first Orbit Chains Activity dashboard was received with strong support, trending on Dune, earning 55+ stars, and already being used in governance discussions. This second dashboard continues in that same spirit of public, open-access tooling, now focusing on the economics of Orbit chains.

What’s Inside This Dashboard?

This dashboard tracks revenue data for Orbit chains that batch settle on Arbitrum One.

Currently included:

  • Deri
  • Rari
  • Xai
  • Proof of Play Apex
  • Blessnet
  • EDU Chain
  • ApeChain
  • Molten Network
  • Proof of Play Boss
  • WINR
  • Superposition
  • Sanko

More will be added as they become indexable.

Key Views:

1. Chain-Specific Revenue & Activity

  • Gas usage for batch posting
  • Daily batch submission activity
  • ETH & USD revenue contributions
  • Chain-level revenue summaries (contract, license, parent chain)

2. Aggregate Revenue Metrics

  • Revenue comparisons across chains
  • Batch posting efficiency
  • Gas consumption trends
  • Monthly revenue breakdowns

Together, these views provide both individual chain insights and a macro-level picture of revenue contributions.

Who Will Find This Useful?

This dashboard is designed to support a wide range of contributors:

  • Delegates & Governance Participants - use revenue data to evaluate Orbit chain impact and guide voting decisions
  • Chain Teams & Orbit Operators - benchmark performance, optimize fee structures, and track sustainability
  • Treasury Managers & Analysts - forecast inflows, assess contribution patterns, design incentive models
  • Developers & Builders - study which chains are achieving traction and how their economics are structured
  • Investors & Observers - evaluate which Orbit chains are producing real, sustainable economic activity

Notes on Data

  • This reflects the best available on-chain data today
  • Some metrics may be partially available or unavailable due to indexing constraints
  • We are working to expand coverage, including other Orbit chains that settle on Arbitrum or other ecosystems

Great work, thank you for your effort!

It wiil be interesting to see the income from all chains (with division by chains) on one chart. Now I see only total revenue from each chain

Thanks for the encouragement.

We have a table, “Orbit Chain Revenue Summary”, in which Revenue refers to income to the Arbitrum DAO from that particular chain.
I think we can add a visual along with a table for better clarity.

Would you like to see any other specifics? Currently, we have created this to understand all the revenue that DAO is generating from L3’s settling on Arbitrum One.

How do you see this revenue data being incorporated into future governance or treasury decisions for Arbitrum, especially around incentives for Orbit chains?

Great question. In simple terms, this dashboard gives the DAO a shared, verifiable baseline for how much value Orbit chains are sending back to Arbitrum One through batch fees. Because it is chain by chain and time-based, delegates and treasury contributors can see who is contributing, how that changes over weeks and months, and where revenue is concentrated or volatile. That makes discussions less about guesswork and more about numbers everyone can check.

In governance, the data can support due diligence before proposals, help compare chains within and across verticals, and provide an objective record when reviewing outcomes after a program ends. In treasury planning, it can inform budget sizing and timing by showing recent revenue levels and trends, enable simple forecasts of expected inflows, and highlight risk factors such as reliance on a single chain or sudden drops. It also helps calibrate parameters that affect settlement and cost, and gives working groups a way to report back with consistent figures and the exact queries used.

This should be read alongside other signals like users, retention, reliability, and security posture. Revenue is one part of the picture, not the whole. Some metrics may be partially available due to indexing limits, and we note that in the dashboard. The value here is transparency and repeatability, so any delegate can replicate the numbers and bring the same evidence into governance and treasury discussions.

Following the launch of our Arbitrum Orbit Chains Revenue Dashboard on August 29, 2025, we’re excited to roll out the next set of updates, expanding both the number of Orbit chains tracked and the depth of available metrics.

While the initial release focused on revenue contributions from early Orbit chains settling on Arbitrum One, these new updates broaden the coverage and introduce deeper insights into how value moves through the ecosystem, keeping delegates, chain teams, analysts, and treasury stakeholders well-informed.

Since the first release of the dashboard, we’ve received great feedback from delegates, especially from the AF and OCL. We’re still in conversation with them on how to track more Orbit Chains more effectively and further improve the dashboard. Their ongoing support, along with valuable suggestions from others in the community, has helped us shape this dashboard into a one-stop place to track revenue from Orbit Chains.

Why These Updates?

Orbit chains continue to grow, and the ecosystem needs transparent and up-to-date data on how these chains contribute economically. These updates expand coverage and add new metrics, giving a clearer picture of revenue generation, contribution, and distribution.

Until now, tracking these changes required manual effort, or there were no dashboards. With these updates, the information is centralized, transparent, and accessible in near real-time.

Update 1 - September 12, 2025

On September 12, 2025, the dashboard was expanded to track 85+ Orbit Chains (L3s) currently settling on Arbitrum One.

Along with the expanded coverage, we added the following new metrics:

  • Average revenue per batch
  • Daily revenue per chain
  • Top contributors leaderboard

These additions give delegates, chain teams, treasury managers, and researchers a more complete view of batch activity, fee flows, and revenue distribution across a larger set of Orbit chains.

Update 2 - October 6, 2025

Then, on October 6, 2025, we introduced a new section tracking Orbit Chains settling on Ethereum. While these chains do not post batches to Arbitrum directly, they contribute through AEP Licensing Fees, creating an additional layer of economic data.

This section tracks:

  • Gross Revenue - total transaction fees collected
  • Settlement Cost - what chains spend to post batches
  • Net Revenue - what remains after settlement costs
  • AEP Fees (10% of Net Revenue) - the portion directed toward ecosystem growth

We also map how this revenue is redistributed:

  • DAO Treasury Revenue (80%) - supporting the collective treasury
  • Developer Guild Revenue (20%) - funding builders and community resources

Additional metrics provide deeper analysis of efficiency and trends:

  • Efficiency tracking - daily splits between settlements, net revenue, and DAO income
  • Trend & volatility metrics - observing shifts and stability over time
  • Revenue splits - highlighting DAO and Guild shares chain by chain

Together, these updates expand the dashboard’s coverage to both Arbitrum One–settling and Ethereum-settling chains, providing tools to monitor revenue generation, contribution, and distribution across the ecosystem in near real-time.

What’s Inside This Updated Dashboard?

  • Revenue Contribution from Orbit Chains Settling on Arbitrum One (L3s-AO)
    • Currently, 89 Orbit Chains are included. View the full list of chains here.
  • Revenue Contribution from Orbit Chains Settling on Ethereum (L2s-E)
    • Currently, 16 Orbit Chains are included. View the full list of chains here.
  • Chain-specific metrics (batch activity, revenue per day, average revenue per batch)
  • Aggregate metrics (total ETH & USD revenue, efficiency, splits)
  • Redistribution metrics (DAO & Guild shares, AEP fees)

These views provide both individual chain insights and a macro-level picture of revenue contributions across the ecosystem.

Who Will Find This Useful?

This dashboard is designed to support a wide range of contributors:

  • Delegates & Governance Participants - evaluate Orbit chain contributions before voting on funding or incentives
  • Chain Teams & Orbit Operators - benchmark performance and optimize fee structures
  • Treasury Managers & Analysts - forecast inflows and assess contribution patterns
  • Developers & Builders - understand fee and activity structures across chains
  • Investors & Observers - monitor how revenue flows and is distributed
