MegaETH on Wednesday, April 01 stayed in the same “steady-but-not-crowded” lane the network has held through late March: low-to-mid 20s TPS, ~2M+ daily transactions, and a relatively small active wallet set. Broader market conditions remain risk-off, but onchain activity looked orderly—outside of a couple of very brief burst events.
The Week So Far
The last 7–10 days have been notably stable on throughput: April 01 printed 25.9 TPS average, basically flat with April 00’s 26.2, and the 14-day range has been tight outside the March 18 outlier (29.8 avg / 56.9 peak). The week-over-week read is slightly constructive: this week’s average (24.8 TPS) is modestly above last week (24.3 TPS, +2.1%), and the weekend dip remains consistent rather than worsening.
On “real usage” proxies, the network is still in a lower-wallet regime versus early March spikes. Daily uniques have mostly sat in the low single-thousands recently (April 01: 3.4K), even while total transactions continue to hold around the 2.0M–2.3M band. That mix—steady volume, fewer wallets—keeps pointing to automation-heavy flows dominating day-to-day load rather than broad-based user expansion.
The Day
April 01’s hourly rhythm was smooth: activity climbed through the early UTC morning (topping out at 27.8 TPS around 05:00 UTC), softened into late morning, popped again around midday (26.9–27.3 TPS around 12:00–13:00 UTC), then drifted quieter into the evening (down to ~24.0 TPS around 20:00 UTC). Average gas tracked similarly, staying near the mid–7 Mgas/s range for most hours.
App-level leaders were familiar, but the composition mattered:
- Crossy Fluffle remained the top transaction driver at 25.8K txs (2,536 Mgas) from 182 unique callers. It also logged a localized spike of 6,003 tx/h around 05:00 UTC—consistent with scripted interaction patterns rather than a broad user wave. Detectors flagged its 24h volume as down sharply versus its prior 24h window, but it still dominated by count.
- Kumbaya was the standout on participation and gas density: 1.4K txs, 1,533 Mgas, and 639 unique callers. It also drove an extreme, momentary network gas burst: 300.2 Mgas/s at 09:46 UTC (with 299.9 Mgas attributed to Kumbaya in that window). Given the otherwise-normal hourly gas, this reads like a short-lived concentrated sequence (e.g., a tight cluster of executions) rather than a sustained regime change.
- GMX put up 1.1K txs but the largest gas total among the listed apps (3,913 Mgas) and 390 unique callers. Detectors also flagged GMX as up strongly versus its previous 24h baseline, matching the “gas-heavy but not huge tx count” profile you’d expect from more complex DeFi actions.
- Avon stayed quietly active: 808 txs, 271 Mgas, and 499 unique callers—one of the cleaner “many users, modest tx count” footprints on the board.
A second storyline was contract-driven throughput. A new contract, 0x681e908b8ab57c49c74d770f369754ccc3e1ae09, first seen ~33 hours ago, has already processed 123,739 txs from 101 unique callers (~1225 tx/caller) and accounted for 2.8% of network volume. It also hit 6,461 tx/h around 13:00 UTC and remained active—strongly suggestive of automated workloads.
Finally, the day included a brief TPS microburst that didn’t show up in the hourly averages: detectors caught a peak of 217.0 TPS at 12:45 UTC, with World Markets - Exchange the top contributor (1,063 tx in that window). This looks like a short-lived batch of activity rather than “the new normal.”
Health Check
Network-wide failures rose to 2.5% on April 01 (55.0K failed transactions), up from 1.5% on March 31. That’s not unprecedented in the last month (e.g., early March saw comparable/higher percentages), but it’s elevated versus the sub-1% days sprinkled through late March.
Given the day’s fingerprints—high tx-per-caller on the new contract and brief, intense bursts around specific venues—the most likely driver is competitive or automated transaction flow (bots, batching, or race conditions), where reverted transactions are a normal byproduct. Worth monitoring if the elevated failure rate persists for multiple days; on its own, this looked contained.
The Takeaway
April 01 was a steady baseline day for MegaETH: throughput stayed around 25.9 TPS and 2.23M transactions, while unique wallets dipped to 3.4K. The interesting signal was in the microstructure—short performance spikes tied to specific contracts and continued heavy automated flow into a newly deployed contract.
On the “Road to TGE,” activity is still translating into modest fee output (no app cleared the $50K/day threshold), and Live Mafia Apps remains at 6/10; the day’s DEX-heavy bursts didn’t meaningfully shift the fee picture.
