Arbitrum (ARB) outperforms Bitcoin (BTC) network in terms of transaction fees
BeInCrypto – Layer 2 (L2) blockchain, Arbitrum, has surpassed 200 million transactions. According to analytics platform Dune, the network currently has more than 5 million active users.
On April 20, the total value of transaction fees on Arbitrum was around $800,000, $200,000 more than on the Bitcoin network.
At the same time, the transaction price remains relatively stable: it will cost you about $0.1 to send ETH to Arbitrum and $0.28 to swap tokens.
While Arbitrum's 7-day average fee is still a bit below $387,000 compared to Bitcoin's $630,000, the growing number of transactions could indicate increased user interest and speed. Mass adoption of L2 blockchain is increasing rapidly.
