Liquidity Routing

Polkadot DeFi Singularity (Polytope Labs & Bifrost)

Evaluated an LP incentives campaign by reverse-engineering liquidity addition/removal events from protocol documentation to calculate Uniswap v4 TVL (where no public framework existed).

Analyzed incentives claimed vs. actual TVL growth, mapped user flows (DOT purchases bridged to Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain, and Ethereum), and tracked downstream trading activity to assess cross-chain behavioral shifts.
