【Crypto World】Ethereum’s performance last Friday was quite intense—handling 2.88 million transactions in a single day, setting a new record. What does this number signify? On-chain activity is heating up significantly, and this month’s transaction volume has already clearly surpassed previous levels.
But there’s an interesting contrast here: despite the surge in transaction volume, transaction fees haven’t skyrocketed. The current average gas fee remains at a relatively low level in recent times, indicating that Ethereum’s scaling solutions—whether through mainnet upgrades or Layer 2 sharding—are truly effective. The network’s ability to handle high concurrency demands is much smoother than in previous cycles.
Another noteworthy signal comes from the staking side. The validator exit queue has been cleared, and users can now withdraw ETH instantly. This isn’t a爆炸式的 staking frenzy, but rather a trend toward steady, sustainable growth. In other words, the ecosystem is operating healthily without abnormal fluctuations.

2.88 million transactions? That number is impressive, but the real feat is that the transaction fees haven't increased.

Is it just about low fees? I’ve been accumulating here, but what’s the point? With 2.88 million transactions, why can't my wallet be saved?

28.8 million transactions, finally worth the effort of this expansion plan.

Scaling really has some benefits; the costs haven't increased but have actually decreased. This is what I wanted to see.

Really? Can the transaction fee be even lower? I feel like I'm getting exploited on every transaction.

Trading volume hits new highs but the fees are still so low, scaling really is making a difference.
Ethereum hits new daily transaction high: 2.88 million transactions, with fees actually decreasing
