An analytics platform tracking Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solutions, providing metrics on TVL, risks, and adoption.
What is L2BEAT?
L2BEAT monitors 50+ Ethereum L2 projects, displaying real-time data like $40 billion total TVL and 1.2 million daily transactions As of 2025. It evaluates risks via stages (Stage 0-2), with only Arbitrum and Optimism at Stage 2 for full decentralization.
