Ethereum's layer-2 blockchains are witnessing significant development, with volume increases of 70% over the past 30 days. Can they compete with Solana's achievements?

Growth of Ethereum Layer-2

Ethereum’s layer-2 blockchain ecosystem is experiencing impressive growth, with volumes increasing by 70% over the past 30 days. Despite high transaction costs on Ethereum's main network, layer-2 solutions provide a sustainable path to enhanced scalability for decentralized applications.

Solana's Advantages and Success

Solana has captured a significant market share with 35.4% of decentralized exchange volumes in November. It is also actively developing in the memecoin sector, bolstering its growth. Meanwhile, Ethereum's layer-2 holds 45.2% of the market share.

Competition and Future Development

Despite Solana's achievements, Ethereum retains its dominance with a total value of $69.7 billion in its base layer, alongside the active growth of individual layer-2 networks like Base and Arbitrum. Going forward, Ethereum plans to make adjustments to its fee structure and continue developing layer-2 solutions to enhance competitiveness.

While Solana has achieved significant success, Ethereum remains a dominant force thanks to its layer-2 integrations and innovations in fee structure. Despite Solana's current advantages in certain aspects, Ethereum has all the opportunities to strengthen its position in the near future.
