Ethereum Layer 2 Solutions Process More Transactions Than Mainnet

Layer 2 scaling solutions have matured to the point where they now process more daily transactions than Ethereum mainnet, marking a significant milestone in blockchain scalability. - Leading Solutions: Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and zkSync dominate the L2 landscape. - Cost Savings: Transaction fees on L2s average $0.10-$0.50 compared to $2-$20 on mainnet. - Security Model: All major L2s inherit Ethereum's security while offering 10-100x throughput improvements. - Future Outlook: Proto-danksharding in 2025 will further reduce L2 costs by 10x through data availability improvements.
