Ethereum scaling strategy shows results as fees rise modestly

[AIcash]

Ethereum’s focus on scaling through layer-2 networks appears to be paying off. Over the past week, Ethereum network fees increased 19%, while competitors like Tron and Solana saw declining fee trends. More notably, transactions across Ethereum layer-2s reached 128 million, surpassing totals on BNB Chain and Tron combined.

Activity on networks such as Base, Arbitrum, Optimism and Polygon continues to grow, reinforcing Ethereum’s ability to scale without compromising core functionality. Analysts view rising fees alongside growing transaction counts as a sign of healthy demand for ETH and its broader ecosystem.
