Total earnings across Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks surpassed $6.89 billion, showcasing increased blockchain adoption and activity. Ethereum generated $2.48 billion in fees, remaining the top network despite fluctuations driven by events like the memecoin craze and a year-end rally. On average, Ethereum earned $6.79 million daily, solidifying its dominance even amid price challenges. Tron, however, experienced the most rapid growth, with a 116.7% increase in fee revenue, reaching $2.15 billion. By the year’s second half, Tron even outpaced Ethereum’s monthly earnings, fueled by rising demand for digital assets. Bitcoin’s fee income rose 15.9% to $922.89 million, thanks to the growing popularity of Ordinal NFTs and BRC-20 tokens. Meanwhile, Solana saw a staggering 2,838% jump, earning $750.65 million as network congestion and increased activity pushed fees higher. Layer 2 networks also gained traction, collectively earning $294.92 million. Solutions like Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base outperformed smaller Layer 1 chains, while the TON network brought in $35.28 million, boosted by its integration with Telegram. This surge in fee revenue reflects blockchain’s expanding role in finance and beyond, with Ethereum leading but facing growing competition from other networks and emerging Layer 2 solutions.
