MegaETH Daily Digest — April 28, 2026

At a Glance

• Network↑: TPS averaged 27.1, essentially flat vs April 27 (27.0; +0.4%)
• Volume↓: 2.32M total transactions, a touch lower than April 27 (2.33M)
• Users↑: 7.5K unique wallets, a sharp step up from April 27 (4.6K)
• Top app: Kumbaya led by a wide margin (17.2K txs; 2,164 unique callers) and was the top contributor during the 209.0 TPS micro-spike
• Health: Normal (0.1% failed)
• Signal: TVL nearly doubled to $199.7M, while “It’s The Season” activity drove a brief gas-per-second burst

MegaETH stayed in its recent “steady-but-busy” range on Tuesday, April 28: similar throughput to Monday, but with meaningfully more distinct wallets touching the network. Broader market conditions were still cautious, making the jump in participation and the liquidity move the more notable signals than raw TPS.

The Week So Far

The last two weeks have been stable, with a familiar weekend dip and a mild weekday rebound. Average TPS on April 28 was 27.1, keeping the chain close to this week’s running pace (26.9 TPS) and only slightly above last week’s average (26.3 TPS, +2.3%). The busiest day in the last 14 days remains April 21 (28.2 avg TPS), and the quietest was Saturday, April 18 (25.0 avg TPS).

On the “actual usage” side, daily volume has held in a tight band around the low-to-mid 2M TX/day range (2.32M on April 28 vs 2.33M on April 27). The bigger story is participation: unique wallets reached 7.5K on April 28 (from 4.6K on April 27), the strongest daily print in the past four weeks.

The Day

April 28’s hour-by-hour flow was mostly flat through the morning (mid-26 TPS), then stepped up into the afternoon, topping out at 29.3 TPS around 14:00 UTC. Gas intensity rose more than TPS did in the same window (11.8 Mgas/s at 15:00 UTC), pointing to heavier transactions rather than just more of them.

Apps: Kumbaya dominated the 24h leaderboard with 17.2K txs and 25,449 Mgas, alongside 2,164 unique callers—comfortably the main venue by both activity and breadth. It also logged a localized surge of 1,699 tx in an hour around 18:00 UTC (41% above its own P95), and it was flagged as the top contributor during the network’s brief 209.0 TPS peak at 19:26 UTC (289 Kumbaya tx in that window). If you’re investigating flow, its primary router contract is a good starting point: Kumbaya - Swap Router 02 (0xe5bbef8de2db447a7432a47eba58924d94ee470e).

Two other patterns stood out:

• “It’s The Season” contracts woke up materially. The biggest driver was It’s The Season - CardCoordinator (0x95b4cc4f41d9c9176d731594a3c79bd99c9b9cd4), up to 2,818 txs (+1742% vs prior 24h, rate-normalized) and the top contributor during the day’s extreme gas-per-second peak (324.5 Mgas/s at 15:57 UTC; 96.2 Mgas in the spike window). Multiple card contracts also showed step-function growth (e.g., GrowthCard at 1,488 txs; AggressionCard 646; DestructionCard 721; RedistributionCard 793), consistent with either a feature moment or automation hitting a new loop.
• A standalone contract surge: 0x7503c12b94807993778e9a3ef8b7c0e1f8fe70bb jumped to 6,100 txs (+7622% vs prior 24h, rate-normalized). That’s the kind of move that can reshape intraday load even if TPS averages don’t budge much.

Beyond the leaders, activity was mixed across the long tail: Canonic and TopStrike both expanded vs their prior day baselines (+214% and +155% in the insight feed), while Intraverse ramped hard (+725% to 557 txs). Avon was notable for distribution—451 txs from 450 unique callers—suggesting many small, distinct interactions rather than a single automated source.

Health Check

Network reliability remained clean: 0.1% failed transactions (1.5K failed out of 2.32M) on April 28, matching the low-error regime of the past week.

The two “HIGH” performance alerts (209.0 TPS peak; 324.5 Mgas/s peak) look like brief bursts rather than sustained stress—hourly TPS never left the high-20s. Spikes like these are often driven by tightly clustered bot/automation windows or a single hot contract moment, and they didn’t coincide with a meaningful rise in failures.

The Takeaway

April 28 was a steady-throughput day with a real participation jump: 7.5K unique wallets on essentially unchanged TPS. The standout behavior was “bursty” execution—Kumbaya dominating flow and “It’s The Season” driving a short-lived gas surge—rather than a broad, sustained ramp in baseline load.

Ecosystem-wise, the near-doubling of TVL to $199.7M is the most consequential backdrop for upcoming sessions, especially for DEX-heavy days (see Kumbaya, Prism, and GMX). On the Road to TGE, the app checklist is already complete, but fee targets still weren’t close on April 28 (no app above $50K/day); details remain on https://www.megaeth.com/token.
