As Ethereum embraces a Layer-2-centric roadmap, more network activity is shifting to L2 ecosystems like Base and Optimism (OP). Coin Metrics is excited to announce expanded support for these networks, including new metrics for key tokens, transaction activity, fee dynamics, and L2 sequencer revenue.
This release builds on our recent rollout of Blob Fee metrics, introduced with Ethereum’s Dencun upgrade, which made L2 settlement significantly cheaper. With this latest addition, clients can now dive deeper into the economic activity on Base and OP—and compare it directly to Ethereum.
What’s New in This Release
Transaction Activity on BASE & OP
Track transaction volumes and activity trends across both Base and Optimism.
Use standardized metrics to compare L2 performance with each other—and against Ethereum mainnet.
