Layer 2 Solutions Are Experiencing Explosive Growth
The Ethereum Layer 2 ecosystem is set for leapfrog development in 2024, with total value locked (TVL) exceeding $90 billion. The technology landscape is becoming diversified: ZK-Rollup accounts for 45% of the market share, Optimistic Rollup holds 40%, and modular blockchain solutions are rapidly rising. Leading project Arbitrum sees daily transaction volume surpassing 8 million, while zkSync Era achieves over 5000 TPS. Technological innovations are focused on three major directions: enhancing cross-chain interoperability, breakthroughs in state compression technology, and integration of privacy computing. It is expected that by 2025, Layer 2 will handle over 90% of Ethereum's transaction demand, with Gas fees potentially dropping below $0.001.
