MegaETH opened March with steady baseline activity and a small step up in both throughput and daily volume on Monday, March 02. User counts remain modest versus mid-February highs, but day-to-day they ticked higher and transactions held near recent ranges even amid cautious broader market conditions.

The Week So Far

Over the last two weeks, average TPS has been remarkably stable around the low 30s, with March 02 landing at 33.4 TPS after a firmer-than-usual weekend (30.8 TPS average this weekend vs 27.0 TPS last weekend). The “weekday vs weekend” gap has narrowed lately, which typically points to either more automated flows running continuously or a healthier spread of always-on apps.

On the transaction side, daily volume has been holding a tight band in the high-2M range: 2.57M–2.87M across Feb 28 through Mar 02, with Monday posting 2.87M. Unique wallets are still trending lower than the earlier February expansion (e.g., 35.0K on Feb 10), but the most recent stretch looks like stabilization rather than free-fall—8.5K on March 02 vs 8.1K on March 01.

Failure rates, meanwhile, are back to normal single digits at the network level after the late-February turbulence (notably 23.3% on Feb 20). March 02 printed 2.9% failed transactions—slightly higher than Sunday’s 2.6%, but not in the same category as the prior spikes.

The Day

March 02 had a clear “quiet-to-busy-to-steady” rhythm. Activity started in the mid-30s TPS just after 00:00 UTC, slid into a softer early-morning patch (down to 27.4–27.7 TPS around 04:00–07:00 UTC), then ramped sharply in the afternoon: 45.4 TPS at 14:00 UTC and the day’s hourly peak of 52.2 TPS at 15:00 UTC before settling back into the mid-30s through most of the evening.

The most important single driver behind the day’s “microburst” behavior was World Markets - Exchange (https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x5e3ae52eba0f9740364bd5dd39738e1336086a8b). It was flagged as the top contributor during two extreme moments:

• Network TPS peaked at 187.0 TPS at 16:09 UTC (with 2,316 tx attributed to World Markets - Exchange in that window).
• Network gas peaked at 364.4 Mgas/s at 02:50 UTC (with 75.5 Mgas attributed to World Markets - Exchange in that window).

Those peaks are much sharper than the hourly averages, suggesting very short-lived bursts (likely automated batches) rather than a sustained day-long ramp.

On the app side, Kumbaya remained the clearest “real users” leader: 8.6K txs, 2,524 Mgas, and 4157 unique callers (https://miniblocks.io/dapps/kumbaya). Crossy Fluffle was close on transactions at 8.0K, but with just 40 unique callers (https://miniblocks.io/dapps/crossy-fluffle) and it was also flagged as down sharply vs the prior 24h window—consistent with a cooldown in automated cycles rather than a slow leak of users.

The rest of the top set showed a mixed picture:

• Smasher jumped to 1.3K txs and was flagged up strongly vs the prior 24h window (https://miniblocks.io/dapps/smasher).
• Ferdy.bet posted 3.8K txs (1,569 Mgas, 104 callers) but was flagged down vs the prior 24h window—worth watching if it persists (https://miniblocks.io/dapps/ferdybet).

New and newly-active contracts were also a major part of the day’s texture. The standout was the new contract 0x5c84050559029ae2b870138082e786507e9bc740 with 6,081 txs from 35 callers (174 tx/caller) and a 32% failure rate—activity that reads strongly automated (https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x5c84050559029ae2b870138082e786507e9bc740). Two other new contracts also arrived with meaningful volume: 0x68ac751d232642b121b8eae8c9ebd5eda4f76992 (2,024 txs) and 0xe119660433f8f55b3978445661cbcfd3951cdd32 (3,626 txs from just 2 callers).

Finally, MegaETH - Secret Game registered a modest activity spike at 392 tx/h around 22:17 UTC (https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x7f0b304d576cdc5ba390a0545e28b5903ed56cf8).

Health Check

At the network level, March 02 looked fine: 2.9% failed transactions (81.9K failed out of 2.87M). The main story is localized failure clustering around specific bursts—patterns that often come from competition, bot-driven retries, or intentional contract gating rather than generalized network instability.

Notable failure spikes included:

• World Markets - Exchange at 21.5% failures around 07:00 UTC (3,654 of 17,000 failed) (https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x5e3ae52eba0f9740364bd5dd39738e1336086a8b)
• Kumbaya at 11.9% failures around 21:32 UTC (46 of 387 failed) (https://miniblocks.io/dapps/kumbaya)
• 0x5c84050559029ae2b870138082e786507e9bc740 at 43.6% failures around 21:33 UTC (51 of 117 failed) (https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x5c84050559029ae2b870138082e786507e9bc740)

Net: nothing suggests systemic chain trouble, but the contracts driving bursts are also where “revert-heavy” behavior clustered. For deeper spot checks, the best starting point is the live feed and anomaly rollups on https://miniblocks.io/insights.

The Takeaway

March 02 was a steady-to-busy Monday: 33.4 TPS, 2.87M transactions, and 8.5K unique wallets—small improvements across the board, with most of the day’s intensity coming from short automated bursts (especially around World Markets - Exchange). App activity remained led by Kumbaya on both transactions and real breadth of callers, while several gaming apps showed signs of bot-like concentration (high tx counts with very few callers).

On the TGE track (https://www.megaeth.com/token), there wasn’t a breakout catalyst in the day’s mix: “Live Mafia Apps” sits at 5/10, and the “$50K daily fees per app” requirement still had 0 apps above $50K on March 02 (Kumbaya at $15K). The practical implication: usage is holding up, but the milestones still depend on either deeper fee generation per app or a step-change in stablecoin scale.
