Key takeaways:
MakerDao has been stuck with whales and funds. They have not yet found community market fit.
There are about 130k users that have experienced with uniswap. It is very early but growing 5.5x in past 6x months
There are about 45k users interesting in yield

There are about 8k early adopters and very important users - seen by YFI holders and about 17k if you account for arbitrageur
I lack data / time but it would be interesting to see the overlap between SNX and YFI users => I guess its high

If you launch anything in DeFi atm, your market is 300k users growing by 50k users every 2 weeks.
However, you need to capture attention of 8k early adopters, these are whales / investors.
Then there is another 8k that can be defined as speculators (4chan is your friend)
