PANews reported on August 10 that according to L2Beat data, the activity of Ethereum's second-layer solutions has reached an all-time high. Although some people criticize Ethereum's average transaction fee of $3.85 per transaction for limiting its adoption rate, this view ignores the important impact of second-layer expansion solutions. These solutions include Base, Arbitrum, Blast, Optimism, and Mantle, with a total locked volume (TVL) of $11.7 billion, and $36.7 billion if bridge deposits are included.
Data shows that as of August 7, the average daily transaction volume of Ethereum L2 is close to the historical high, reaching 318 transactions per second, mainly due to the growth of networks such as Xai, Base and Proof of Play. Currently, the transaction processing volume of Ethereum's second-layer solution is 24 times that of the main chain, highlighting the success of the recent upgrade in reducing the cost of rollup operations.
