[Golden Financial News] The Ethereum network continues to lead in decentralized application (DApp) transaction volume and deposits, despite facing challenges from competitors such as Solana and BNB Chain. There has been a recent surge in activity on the Ethereum network, with transaction volume increasing by 83% from the previous week, making it the only network in the top 20 to report an increase in transaction volume. However, the surge in Ethereum transaction volume has not been matched by the increase in user numbers, which fell by 8% from the previous week. On the other hand, the total value locked in Ethereum in DeFi applications fell by 17.5% in seven days, while competitors such as Solana and Avalanche managed to attract deposits. Ethereum transaction volume growth was mainly driven by Balancer’s 422% increase in seven days, but its significant increase in transaction volume was not synchronized with improvements in other indicators. This data suggests that more thorough analysis is needed to understand anomalies in the Ethereum network.
