MegaETH stayed in a high-activity regime on Saturday, holding essentially flat on headline TPS while shifting meaningfully toward broader participation. Even with fewer total transactions than Friday, unique wallets expanded sharply—an encouraging sign in cautious broader market conditions.
The Week So Far
This week has been materially busier than last: the average sits at 35.0 TPS versus 29.8 TPS the week before (+17.7%), and the “weekend slowdown” looks less reliable than it did in late February. This weekend is averaging 36.4 TPS versus 27.0 TPS last weekend (+35.0%), which is a real change in cadence rather than a one-off blip.
On the transaction ledger, March 6 was the volume outlier at 4.06M transactions, but March 7 stands out differently: 36.7K unique wallets is the highest in the provided 4-week window, well above the typical 8–20K band seen across most days since February 7. Network-level failed transactions remain contained lately (March 7 at 0.6%), a notable improvement from the late-February period where failure rates briefly ran into double digits on some days.
The Day
March 7’s intraday shape was “two waves”: a very hot start around midnight UTC (78.8 TPS at 00:00), a quieter early-morning stretch that dipped into the mid-20s TPS around 04:00–07:00, then a steady afternoon/evening rebuild with prints like 63.7 TPS (17:00) and 69.2 TPS (21:00).
On the app side, the leaderboard had a clear split between transaction engines and user hubs:
- Crossy Fluffle led raw transactions at 9.7K, but with only 31 unique callers—consistent with a tight operator set (automation or a small number of power users) driving most of the throughput.
- Kumbaya was the broadest-based venue: 4.9K transactions, 1,598 unique callers, and the day’s largest gas footprint (1,815 Mgas). It also saw a localized failure-rate spike (20.7% at one point), which often lines up with bursty trading flows, bot competition, or protective checks rather than “broken” usage.
- Ferdy.bet posted 2.3K transactions and was flagged as up sharply versus its prior 24h baseline—worth watching for whether it sustains or was a short-lived campaign/automation burst.
- Avon was quietly notable on participation efficiency: 305 transactions from 281 unique callers, implying lots of small, distinct interactions rather than a few high-frequency accounts.
- Showdown logged 241 transactions from 1 unique caller, which reads as highly automated or programmatic usage.
The most important “under the hood” story was concentrated contract activity. The network saw an extreme short-lived TPS spike to 3,436 TPS (03:05 UTC) and a gas-per-second peak to 607.7 Mgas/s (20:21 UTC). Both were attributed to the same dominant contributor: 0x0f5902d3f4e019dd83b4fa214d52c50308b1339e. Those kinds of peaks are typically “needle events” (bursts over a small window) rather than an all-day load increase—and they help explain why the day can look stable on average TPS while still producing extreme momentary readings.
New/flash contracts also played their usual role in short-run traffic:
- 0x085cf7fa7c6abf948b3439ae7b35cb1023d6bd37 did 7.5K transactions in ~38h and then went inactive (32 callers; likely automated).
- 0x48261806ea9ae5b1c49ad1d672b76b650f804498 appeared ~3.6h ago and is still active (3.2K transactions, 27 callers).
- 0x867928ef43a0fdd1b7042b4293aecb9578c6fcb1 is also new and active (2.1K transactions, 9 callers) and showed elevated failure behavior (details below).

Health Check
Network-wide reliability was steady on March 7: 0.6% failed transactions (19.2K failed out of 3.23M). That’s firmly in the “nothing alarming” range.
The volatility was localized:
- 0x0f5902d3f4e019dd83b4fa214d52c50308b1339e recorded a 35.3% failure spike around March 6 23:25 UTC (34,368 failed of 97,402). Given the simultaneous extreme TPS/gas bursts, this pattern fits competitive automation, tight timing windows, or intentional reverts under load.
- 0x867928ef43a0fdd1b7042b4293aecb9578c6fcb1 hit a 74.1% failure spike (137/185) around 19:43 UTC, while also being a brand-new, high-tx/caller contract—again consistent with bot-heavy conditions or gating mechanics.
- 0xd2f0fc2a5d8b09e83630877f68a7d9b573425660 saw a 33.6% failure spike in a smaller sample (42/125).
Separately, World Markets - Exchange was flagged as down in 24h volume (77,042 vs 290,141 prior), yet still posted an hourly spike (11,252 tx/h). That mix—lower overall volume but sharp hourly bursts—often indicates scheduled/automated flows or episodic strategies rather than continuous organic demand.
The Takeaway
Saturday extended this week’s step-up in activity: 47.6 TPS on average is weekend-like only in name, and the bigger headline is participation—36.7K unique wallets despite lower total transactions than Friday. The day’s extreme TPS/gas peaks were real but highly concentrated in a single contract, with minimal impact on network-wide failure rates.
On the Road to TGE, app activity continues to cluster in the same core set (including Kumbaya, Showdown, and Avon), but fee generation remains below the per-app threshold (no app above $50K on March 7; total fees $26K). For the current status and criteria, see https://www.megaeth.com/token.
