The average transaction fee on Ethereum<\/a> has reached record lows as more activity moves to the Layer-2 (L2) networks<\/a> on the chain.<\/p>\n

According to Ultrasound.money data<\/a>, the average gas has dropped to 4.81 Gwei \u2014 the lowest level since the network completed the Merge event<\/a> in 2022.<\/p>\n

Market observers attributed this decline to increasing activity on L2 networks following the completion of the Dencun upgrade<\/a>. The Dencun upgrade significantly reduced fees for L2 networks, making transacting on the base layer less attractive.<\/p>\n

Notably, the blockchain analytical platform IntoTheBlock reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“An increasing number of transactions are now being settled on Ethereum Layer 2s. Last month, the three largest L2s hit a record 82% transaction share of all Ethereum transactions.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Furthermore, the number of transactions on Arbitrum has seen strong growth, reaching over 2 million daily transactions<\/span> on May 8 \u2014 a significant rise from the early March average of 1 million.<\/p>\n

L2beats data<\/a> further indicates that Base and Arbitrum averaged 30 and 20 transactions per second, respectively, while Ethereum managed 13 transactions per second during the same period.<\/p>\n

ETH turns inflationary<\/h2>\n

Meanwhile, CryptoQuant analysis revealed that ETH has transitioned to an inflationary state post the Dencun upgrade, resulting in diminished gas fees and reducing its burn rate.<\/p>\n

In light of this development, the firm noted:<\/p>\n

“Since The Merge, Ethereum appeared to be on track with its ‘ultra-sound' money narrative, showing a slight reduction in the total ETH supply. However, the post-Dencun upgrade challenges this by reducing transaction fees and the ETH burn rate, leading to an increase in supply.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

CryptoQuant further elaborated that the Dencun upgrade environment has presented a scenario where maintaining deflation would require a substantial increase in network activity, contrasting the current trend of low gas fees and reduced burn rates.<\/p>\n

Notably, UltraSound.Money data shows that the daily amount of ETH burned during the past day was 519 ETH, a record low for the network.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
