- Signal: Two sharp micro-spikes—81.0 TPS (Crossy Fluffle) and 304.7 Mgas/s (Kumbaya)—despite an otherwise flat Saturday baseline
Broader activity stayed steady but clearly in “weekend mode”: slightly softer throughput than Friday, with fewer active wallets and a mild volume pullback. Even with cautious market conditions, the chain handled a couple of short-lived surges cleanly.
The Week So Far
The last two weeks have been stable-to-slightly-up in throughput, with this week averaging 27.1 TPS versus 25.8 TPS last week (+5.1%). The shape has been consistent: midweek is strongest (Apr 21 hit 28.2 avg / 31.7 peak TPS), and weekends dip back toward the mid‑20s.
On the adoption side, daily totals have been holding in a tight band around the low-to-mid 2M range, with periodic wallet spikes. The standout recent wallet days were Apr 8 and Apr 24 at 5.8K unique wallets—followed by Saturday’s drop back to 4.3K, a typical weekend reversion rather than a structural change.
Failure rates have been very manageable in this stretch. After a higher day on Apr 16 (1.8%), the chain has been running at 0.1–0.2% most days, and Apr 25 rounded to 0% (455 failed tx on 2.24M), which is about as clean as it gets at this scale.
The Day
Saturday, Apr 25 ran remarkably flat hour-to-hour: mostly 25.4–26.9 TPS from 00:00–22:00 UTC, with average throughput at 25.9 TPS and average gas at 7.8 Mgas/s. The “rhythm” was steady—no sustained session where the chain stayed hot—yet two brief spikes cut through the baseline:
- A transactions spike to 81.0 TPS at 06:49 UTC, attributed primarily to Crossy Fluffle (2,208 tx in that window). Crossy also logged a 3,998 tx/h burst around 06:00 UTC, slightly above its own 95th percentile. See activity on the DApp page: https://miniblocks.io/dapps/crossy-fluffle and the main contract: https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0xa30a04b433999d1b20e528429ca31749c7a59098
- A gas spike to 304.7 Mgas/s at 20:38 UTC, with Kumbaya the top contributor (299.9 Mgas in that window). That’s a “needle spike” rather than a day-long ramp, since hourly averages remained stable. DApp: https://miniblocks.io/dapps/kumbaya and “FireLaunch” contract: https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x69fe0908f1211de66f7067021998f28a5693abbd
On the app leaderboard, Crossy Fluffle was the transaction leader (5.0K txs) but not the gas leader—its 486 Mgas suggests lots of small, frequent actions. Kumbaya was the clear gas heavyweight at 2,455 Mgas on 2.3K txs with 825 unique callers, pointing to broad usage with heavier per-tx execution (swaps/route logic, or concentrated periods of high-compute activity). (Leaderboard view: https://miniblocks.io/insights)
Outside the top two:
- Avon (https://miniblocks.io/dapps/avon) posted 775 txs with 644 unique callers—highly distributed activity for the tx count—yet it also showed a -54% volume move versus the prior 24h in the automated insights (786 vs 1,723). That reads like “weekend cooldown” or reduced automated interaction more than a cliff in real users.
- GMX (https://miniblocks.io/dapps/gmx) was only 104 txs but 447 Mgas—another “high gas per tx” profile worth keeping an eye on when gas spikes appear.
- Prism (https://miniblocks.io/dapps/prism) landed in the middle (451 txs, 158 Mgas, 96 callers), a healthier-looking distribution than the ultra-concentrated caller patterns seen in some other entries (e.g., Showdown and Intraverse each at 1 unique caller).
One non-DApp contract also popped: 0x12759afca690637b425ffba3265f0dc2f6242a8d spiked to 3,075 tx/h around 03:00 UTC.

Health Check
From a network perspective, Apr 25 was unusually clean: 0% failed transactions (455 failed out of 2.24M total). That’s consistent with a calmer weekend baseline even though there were short-lived spikes.
The two performance “alerts” (81.0 TPS peak, 304.7 Mgas/s peak) look like bursty, app-driven micro-events rather than systemic stress: they didn’t translate into elevated daily failure rates, and the hourly averages stayed steady. For operational monitoring, the practical watch item is whether Kumbaya-driven gas spikes become recurring at the same time-of-day or cluster around specific contract activity.
The Takeaway
Apr 25 was a steady Saturday: slightly lower TPS, volume, and wallets than Friday, but with two sharp bursts led by Crossy Fluffle (TPS) and Kumbaya (gas) that the network absorbed without measurable strain. Net-net: nothing alarming—just weekend quiet with a couple of high-intensity moments.
On the Road to TGE, the “Live Mafia Apps” track is already complete, but the fee and stablecoin tracks still have runway: no app cleared the $50K/day mark on Apr 25, and Kumbaya’s heavier onchain activity translated to $5K in daily fees per the program snapshot (details: https://www.megaeth.com/token).
