Market cap: To calculate market cap, we create a daily cumulative sum of total tokens issued minus tokens redeemed. This will give us the total supply. Next, if the protocol provides an oracle contract we get the last known price and multiply that by supply. If no oracle contract exists we assume a $1 price.

Unique Holders: Using the token transfer data we calculate the number of distinct wallets that held a balance greater than 0 each day.

Top Holders: We calculate the balance of all current holders using the token transfer data.
