- This proposal helps Polkadot and its parachains grow by providing tools to track dApp and wallet activity.
- Parachain teams currently lack easy-to-use tools to understand user growth, TVL (Total Value Locked), and fees.

Ink! Analyzer is a tool created by David Semakula that helps analyze ink! smart contracts. It is like rust-analyzer but for ink!, which is a language for making smart contracts. The analyzer helps with understanding the rules of ink! contracts and gives useful features for editing them. It works with many different tools, like Visual Studio Code, and can be used to add ink! support to other tools too.

David is asking for money to update ink! Analyzer so it can work with the newest version of ink!, called ink! v5. He wants to make it better and faster, and also write instructions for people to use it. He has already gotten money from the Web3 Foundation to work on ink! Analyzer before, but he thinks it's time to get money from the treasury instead. David is a software engineer with a lot of experience and has also helped with rust-analyzer and ink! in the past.
