Over the past seven days, Somnex’s swap activity exhibited notable volatility, peaking at an average of 261.45K swaps per day from approximately 12.9K unique swappers, before entering a sharp decline that persisted beyond the campaign window.

This pattern was not random the data indicates clear behavioral and structural shifts in how users engaged with the platform during this period.

What the Data Reveals

The chart trendlines suggest two distinct behavioral phases:

Peak Phase:

• Swap activity peaked sharply after Somnex Swap was made mandatory in somnia Odyssey Quest

• Users responded strongly to short-term incentives and ecosystem buzz.
• Peak user concentration happened around 17th aligning with the announcement date.

After the initial surge, swap counts fell dramatically daily activity dropped by 99.22% within 4 days.

Making the swap activity to be 0.78% below the peak (from 19th till today)

• The drop was sustained, not a one-off dip, suggesting systemic issues in retention, not traffic.
