According to CryptoRank data, in the on-chain activities of the previous day, only two Ethereum Layer 2 solutions had daily revenues surpassing $10,000. Among them, Base performed the most impressively, with a daily revenue of approximately $147,000, followed by Arbitrum at around $39,000. This significant revenue gap reflects the notable differences in ecosystem activity and user stickiness between the two L2 chains. As a rising star, Base has quickly accumulated considerable trading volume thanks to Coinbase's ecosystem support and optimized user experience. In comparison, Arbitrum, which entered the market earlier, has a mature infrastructure and a rich ecosystem of applications, but its growth has slowed recently amid market competition. This dynamic change reminds market participants that the competition landscape in the L2 track is continuously evolving, and paying attention to revenue trends across chains is crucial for understanding ecosystem health.

Base this time is really outrageous, Coinbase's traffic dividend is just fierce What's wrong with Arbitrum? Feels less active than before Base 147k vs Arb 39k, a 3x gap is really shocking The new wave can really fight back, old brands still need to stay calm Is the ecosystem competition this fierce? How should I allocate my assets? Base has taken a lot of business, but don't sleep on Arbitrum Who is still hoarding Arb? Are everyone now rushing to Base? Coinbase's private domain traffic is truly unbeatable The L2 landscape has changed so quickly, even at the beginning of the year, no one could have predicted

This wave of Base is really taking off; Coinbase's endorsement is truly unmatched. Arbitrum seems to be falling behind a bit, once the top L2. The influence of the CB ecosystem is indeed unmatched by OPs. I just want to know how long Base can stay popular; it depends on how the subsequent ecosystem develops.

This wave of Base has really taken off; Coinbase's endorsement is truly unmatched. Why did Arbitrum fall behind? Weren't they still the king of L2 before? $1.47 million in daily revenue—this number is a bit outrageous... Is it real or fake? It seems that ecosystem activity really can determine life or death; even burning money for incentives can't stop user flow. The younger generation really has overwhelmed the older generation; this is competition.

This wave of momentum for Base is really impressive; the resources from CB hitting hard truly make a difference.

Base is truly outstanding, Coinbase's recent operations are really impressive. Why does Arbitrum seem to be falling behind a bit? Why didn't they capitalize on their early advantages? Base 147k vs Arb 39k, what a gap. The activity level of the ecosystem says everything. Coinbase's influence is truly formidable. Wait, could there be some inflated data? Is the daily yield on L2 really that high? Arbitrum needs to reflect on this; they can't rely on past achievements. Base's momentum is too strong. The advantage of latecomers is their aggressiveness. Coinbase's backing makes a difference; no wonder Base is rising so quickly. I thought Arbitrum could hold steady, but I didn't expect the competition to be so fierce. This trend of Base really looks like it's about to take off.
