Analyze Peer Protocol

How is the Peer protocol performing? What are the trends?

The Problem

Before deploying capital, adjusting rates, or choosing a payment platform, agents need protocol-level intelligence: How much volume is flowing? Are spreads tightening or widening? Who are the top LPs? What currencies are growing? Without analytics, agents operate blind.

What You Can Analyze

•Protocol summary — volume, trades, liquidity, spreads, and period-over-period changes in a single call
•Period comparison — compare month-to-date, quarter-to-date, and year-to-date metrics
•Time-series data — daily/hourly volume, flow breakdowns, deposit trends
•Leaderboards — top makers by volume/APR/profit, top takers by volume/lock score/activity
•Market spreads — median spreads and liquidity by platform and currency pair
•Attribution — volume and deposit attribution data
•Currencies and platforms — available payment methods and supported currencies

Quick Protocol Health Check

typescript

import { Peerlytics } from '@peerlytics/sdk';

const peerlytics = new Peerlytics({
  apiKey: process.env.PEERLYTICS_API_KEY,
});

const summary = await peerlytics.getSummary();

console.log(`MTD volume: $${summary.periods.mtd.metrics.volume}`);
console.log(`Success rate: ${summary.periods.mtd.metrics.successRate}%`);
console.log(`Active liquidity: $${summary.liquidity.available}`);
console.log(`Current spread: ${summary.spreads?.current_spread_bps} bps`);
console.log(`Volume change vs last month: ${summary.changes.volume.mtd_vs_prior_month}%`);

Example Analyses

Who are the top LPs right now?

typescript

const { makers } = await peerlytics.getLeaderboard({ limit: 10 });

for (const maker of makers.byVolume) {
  console.log(`${maker.addressShort}: $${maker.volumeUsd} vol, ${maker.aprPct?.toFixed(1)}% APR`);
}

Which platform has the tightest spreads for USD?

typescript

const market = await peerlytics.getMarketSummary({
  platform: ['venmo', 'wise', 'revolut', 'cashapp', 'paypal'],
  currency: 'USD',
});

const best = market.markets
  .filter((m) => m.median !== null)
  .sort((a, b) => (a.median ?? 0) - (b.median ?? 0))[0];

console.log(`Cheapest: ${best.platform} at ${((best.median! - 1) * 10000).toFixed(0)} bps`);

Is volume growing or shrinking?

typescript

const summary = await peerlytics.getSummary();
const { volume } = summary.changes;

if (volume.mtd_vs_prior_month !== null && volume.mtd_vs_prior_month > 0) {
  console.log(`Volume up ${volume.mtd_vs_prior_month}% vs last month`);
} else {
  console.log(`Volume down ${volume.mtd_vs_prior_month}% vs last month`);
}
