By the first quarter of 2026, Ethereum's mainnet transaction volume has shown a clear U-shaped recovery and strong growth trend. In Q1 2026, the Ethereum mainnet processed 200.4 million transactions, surpassing 200 million for the first time in a single quarter, a significant 43% increase from 145 million in Q4 2025. Daily transaction volume also hit a record high of 2.2 million in December 2025. This remarkable growth is mainly attributed to the continued prosperity of Layer 2 networks and the increased penetration of stablecoin payments. Layer 2 networks like Base and Arbitrum handle massive transaction volumes and efficiently settle them on the Ethereum mainnet, serving as the core drivers of on-chain activity. Additionally, Ethereum's two major technical upgrades in 2025 played a crucial role. The Pectra upgrade in May laid the foundation for future scalability, while the Fusaka upgrade in December increased the block gas limit from 45 million to 60 million, directly boosting network capacity. The combined effect of these upgrades brought the average transaction fee down to a historic low of about $0.17, greatly stimulating on-chain activity. #Gate广场五月交易分享

According to Forbes, ARK Invest released a report predicting that as Bitcoin gradually matures into a new institutional asset class, its market capitalization could grow from the current nearly $2 trillion to $16 trillion by 2030, with an annual compound growth rate of about 63% over the next five years. ARK expects the total market size of smart contract networks and on-chain digital currencies to reach $28 trillion by 2030, with Bitcoin potentially accounting for about 70%, primarily composed of smart contract networks like Ethereum, Solana, and others. The report believes that the growth of Bitcoin and the crypto market will benefit from some absorption of gold market value, as well as the tokenization of assets such as stocks, bonds, real estate, and currencies; however, widespread adoption still depends on clear regulations and mature institutional infrastructure.
