*   **Total amount of active users**
*   **Amount of Staked tokens** to Nomination pools and Validators

Apart from developing the open-source Nova Wallet [iOS](https://github.com/nova-wallet/nova-ios-app) & [Android](https://github.com/nova-wallet/nova-android-app) mobile applications, our team is **consistently contributing to the Polkadot ecosystem** by providing open-source SDKs, design assets, knowledge-sharing sessions, and infrastructure. Examples include:

*   [Delegate Registry](https://github.com/nova-wallet/opengov-delegate-registry) — an open-source repository for Delegates to fill out their information to attract more delegations through the Agile Delegation feature
    *   Other apps are using it (besides Nova Wallet): [OpenGov Insights](https://opengov.metakosmia.host/#/delegates)
*   Designing and Developing [Nova Spektr](https://novaspektr.io/) — all-in-one desktop app for Polkadot ecosystem
