Annual Recurring Revenue

Definition

Annual Recurring Revenue represents the predictable yearly income a business expects from its subscribers or recurring contracts. In digital economics, particularly for blockchain-based services or platforms offering subscriptions, ARR quantifies the normalized revenue generated from these continuous agreements over a twelve-month period. It serves as a key metric for assessing the financial stability and growth trajectory of projects within the decentralized application space. This figure is crucial for evaluating the long-term viability and operational efficiency of protocols and services that rely on sustained user engagement and payment streams.
