MegaETH Weekly Report — Week 10 (Mar 2 – Mar 8, 2026)
MegaETH activity expanded meaningfully this week, with 21.20M total transactions (+15.1% WoW) alongside a step-change in user participation: average daily unique wallets rose to 23.6K (+102.2% WoW). Just as important, the network’s raw execution quality improved sharply—weekly failure rate fell to 1.1% (from 5%), suggesting last week’s elevated reverts were largely transient rather than structural. The shape of the week was “quiet-to-hot,” with the busiest throughput concentrated into Fri–Sun and capped by a very large Sunday wallet spike.
Network Activity
The week opened with decent volume but a comparatively noisy Monday: 2.87M transactions with 8.5K unique wallets and 2.9% failures (81.9K failed). From there, the network settled into a midweek trough—Tuesday and Wednesday were the softest stretch in both participation and reliability risk, with Wednesday as the quietest day at 2.35M transactions and only 4.5K unique wallets, while failure rate bottomed at 0.3% (7.9K failed). That midweek lull is notable because it set up a clear contrast with the weekend’s demand, rather than a steady linear ramp.
Momentum returned on Thursday (2.65M transactions; 11.2K wallets) before a decisive break higher on Friday, the busiest day: 4.06M transactions and 20.1K wallets. Saturday held that higher baseline (3.23M transactions) while participation accelerated (36.7K wallets), and then Sunday became the week’s defining outlier: 73.7K unique wallets on 3.67M transactions. That Sunday wallet count is far beyond the prior week’s peak (20.2K), implying a broad “many-small-actors” day rather than a single-app grind—especially given transactions did not exceed Friday.
On the performance side, average TPS moved from 27–33 early-week to the high 40s on Fri–Sat (47.1 and 48.2 avg TPS), while Sunday produced the week’s most extreme burst: 175.7 peak TPS. Gas followed the same story—Sunday reached 21.3 peak Mgas/s after running mostly in the ~9–12 range earlier. For the full arc and context, the clearest read is that MegaETH handled a weekend participation surge without degrading into widespread failure conditions (see the live views on the Dashboard and Network Heatmap).
DApp Leaderboard
The DApp leaderboard’s key feature this week is not a fight at the top—it’s how small the registered leaderboard is relative to network totals. Weekly network volume was 21.20M transactions, while the #1 DApp, Crossy Fluffle, logged 52.4K. That disparity strongly suggests a large share of activity is happening in non-registered contracts (covered below), or in areas outside the current DApp registry view. As a result, leaderboard shifts are still informative competitively, but they’re not explaining the network’s throughput expansion on their own.
Within the registered set, gaming cooled materially week-over-week. Crossy Fluffle remained #1 at 52.4K weekly transactions, but fell -67% WoW (159K → 52.4K). TopStrike (-73% WoW to 3.4K) and Showdown (-25% WoW to 3.1K) also declined, consistent with last week’s gaming burst fading rather than rotating within the same category. Smasher was a small exception, up +14% WoW to 3.3K, and Intraverse was the standout growth story: 6.1K (+107% WoW), moving into the top five.
DEX activity on the leaderboard was mixed-to-down. Kumbaya held #2 at 44.6K but dropped -31% WoW, while Canonic edged up +4% to 9.0K. The long tail of DEX entries contracted sharply (CurrentX -68%; Prism -32%; SectorOne -21%), which matters because it indicates the incremental wallet surge did not translate into broad-based DEX exploration inside the registered cohort.
The clearest “winner” in momentum was Ferdy.bet: 30.4K weekly transactions (+64% WoW), climbing to #3 and becoming the main offset to the gaming cooldown. In DeFi lending, Avon grew +65% to 2.0K—small in absolute terms, but directionally consistent with higher weekend wallet participation.
For ongoing monitoring, the best workflow is to track these shifts alongside the broader DApps Catalog and the higher-volume unlabeled contracts visible in the Contracts Explorer.
Notable Contracts
This week’s network story is dominated by high-volume contracts outside the DApp registry, and two addresses in particular explain a large portion of throughput and a large portion of failures:
-
MBIRD (0x0f5902d3f4e019dd83b4fa214d52c50308b1339e) — 2.61M transactions, 87.7K failed
https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x0f5902d3f4e019dd83b4fa214d52c50308b1339e
This is throughput at a “network-scale” footprint, with a meaningful revert count consistent with competitive execution (bots, race conditions, or guardrails). -
World Markets - Exchange (0x5e3ae52eba0f9740364bd5dd39738e1336086a8b) — 2.41M transactions, 110K failed
https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x5e3ae52eba0f9740364bd5dd39738e1336086a8b
Similarly high-volume and similarly failure-heavy; together with MBIRD, these two contracts alone account for millions of weekly transactions, far exceeding any single registered DApp.
A second tier of notable non-registered activity adds important color, especially around failure concentration:
-
0xb4e1010da22f86f630b8bb2b245e38938973b119 — 97.3K txs, 0 failed
https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0xb4e1010da22f86f630b8bb2b245e38938973b119
High volume with clean execution. -
0x5c84050559029ae2b870138082e786507e9bc740 — 37.7K txs, 14.8K failed
https://miniblocks.io/contracts/0x5c84050559029ae2b870138082e786507e9bc740
A concentrated revert pocket; patterns like this are often consistent with throttling, access conditions, or heavy contention. -
0xd8c7079ac26d5e749bfe2c6c6f0e2617cc14dd7f — 24.8K txs, 287 failed

Reliability & Health
From a network health perspective, this was a clear rebound week: 1.1% failure rate vs 5% last week, with total failed transactions down to 234K (from 924K, -74.6%). Daily failure rates stayed mostly contained (0.3%–1.2%) after Monday’s 2.9%, and—crucially—stayed sub-1% even as wallets surged into the weekend (Saturday 0.6%, Sunday 0.9%). That’s a strong signal that the chain handled higher participation without a proportional rise in reverts.
At the application layer, a few DApps exhibited elevated revert rates, but the context matters: higher failure rates can reflect competition, bot pressure, or deliberate constraint mechanics rather than “broken” apps.
- Kumbaya: 3.9% failure rate (1.7K failed) on 44.6K weekly transactions—noticeably above the network baseline.
- TopStrike: 9.7% (327 failed) on 3.4K weekly transactions.
- SectorOne: 34.5% (97 failed) on 281 weekly transactions—high as a percentage, but small in total impact.
On the contract side, the largest revert volumes were concentrated in the two highest-activity unlabeled contracts: MBIRD (87.7K failed) and World Markets - Exchange (110K failed). A separate hotspot is 0x5c84050559029ae2b870138082e786507e9bc740, where 14.8K of 37.7K transactions failed—an extreme share that is worth watching for continued contention.
Overall severity assessment: healthy. The week combined higher throughput, much higher wallet participation, and sharply improved failure rates—a rare combination that points to stabilization after last week’s noisier execution environment.
Market & Ecosystem Context
Broader market conditions remained firmly risk-off, which makes the on-chain participation jump more notable: the Sunday wallet spike looks more like a platform-specific event (product cycle, campaign, or onboarding wave) than a macro-driven risk-on surge.
On the DeFi side, MegaETH TVL rose from $83.7M (7d ago) to $93.0M (+11.1% weekly), but the more actionable signal was the single-day step-up into Friday: TVL moved from $85.3M (Mar 5) to $94.6M (Mar 6), a >5% daily increase that coincided with the week’s busiest on-chain day (4.06M transactions). While that doesn’t prove causality, it’s consistent with capital moving alongside higher utilization.
TGE progress remains incremental rather than catalytic. The “Road to TGE” tracker shows LIVE MAFIA APPS at 5/10, and the $500M USDM milestone at 12% ($60.8M circulating). The fee-based trigger is still not close this week: no apps were above $50K/day, with Cap and Kumbaya around ~$10K–$11K/day. For details and ongoing changes, see https://www.megaeth.com/token.
Week Ahead
Watch whether the weekend’s participation surge persists into weekdays—especially whether unique wallets remain elevated above the prior week’s peak (20.2K) and whether Sunday’s pattern repeats without pushing failure rates higher. It’s also worth tracking whether MBIRD and World Markets - Exchange remain the primary throughput drivers, or if activity rotates into registered DApps like Ferdy.bet and Intraverse as the competitive landscape adjusts. Finally, keep an eye on whether TVL holds near the post-Friday step-up and whether DEX activity breadth rebounds beyond the top few entries (e.g., Kumbaya, Canonic).
