📛 Ethereum Gas fees Up 🔺 An article from Bitcoin.com states that as the value of Ethereum (ETH) has risen greatly over the last 14 days, the cost of sending ETH has also increased. At the time of the article, ETH was trading at $1,542 per unit and reached a high of $1,606 per unit. The article also states that the cost of layer-two (L2) transactions, such as Arbitrum and Optimism transactions, have risen as well. This may be caused by increased demand and usage on the Ethereum network which can lead to higher transaction fees. Article here https://lnkd.in/dPr6fvmN

🟠 NEWSBTC states that Arbitrum and Optimism raked millions in profit despite the extended bear market that hammered decentralized finance (DeFi) activities and Ethereum (ETH) valuation in 2022. And as per Per on-chain data shared on Twitter, Arbitrum, and Optimism, general-purpose Ethereum layer-2 platforms, made 2,906 ETH and 2,086ETH, respectively. In USD terms, it translates to around $4.6 million and $3.3 million for each protocol. Article here https://lnkd.in/d2DPvPwp & tweet here https://lnkd.in/dVu-XvfQ
