⚠️ Most Ethereum L2 networks… are not needed by anyone?
Fresh statistics speak for themselves 📊
Despite dozens of second-layer networks, there is real demand for only three:
🥇 Base (Coinbase)
🥈 Arbitrum (Offchain Labs)
🥉 Starknet (StarkWare)
💰 Distribution of L2 fees (according to Happy Coin News):
• Base — ~70% of all revenues
• Arbitrum — 19%
• Starknet — 4%
• All other L2s combined — a pitiful 7% 🤷♂️
📉 In fact, it turns out that "Ethereum fragmentation" is largely nominal.
The lion's share of activity and money circulates on just three platforms, while the others exist more as a formality.
🔥 But there is an important nuance
L2s really compete with Ethereum itself:
⛓ In the last 24 hours:
• Ethereum mainnet users paid validators $240 million
• ETH-based L2 platforms earned $210 million — only 12.5% less 😳
— Most of the market does not need L2s
📌In short, it turns out to be some kind of nonsense 🤠
