There's been a 196% increase in the number of transactions done on Layer 2 solutions, and it sums up to about 5.67 million transactions. Base was the leading contributor, settling most the of transactions; about 57% of the transactions. Arbitrum was the second, settling about 31% of the transactions.

And Optimism was third, settling about 11% of the transactions. This increase in transactions show that there's been more demand for Layer 2 solutions. The volume of transactions in Base, in the past week surpassed $1.6 billion; and this volume exceeded that of Optimism, which is more established.

In the last couple of months, there's been remarkable growth in Layer 2 networks. And Dencun upgrade has brought about more interest and demand for Layer 2 networks. Crypto analyst VanEck, has predicted that these Layer 2 scaling solutions in 2030, may see a market cap of $1 trillion.
