Ethereum users bridged 518% more assets year-over-year in the first quarter of 2023
Ethereum layer 2s, such as Optimism, Arbitrum and Polygon, increased in popularity in the first quarter of 2023, according to a report from Web3 development platform Alchemy. Ethereum users bridged over $635,000 worth of crypto assets to these networks from January to March, an increase of 44% over the fourth quarter of 2023 and 518% over the first quarter of 2022.
The report, titled simply “Web3 Development Report,” cited Dune Analytics as its source for this data. It showed that users only bridged approximately $103,000 worth of assets to layer 2s in the first quarter of 2022, whereas the same three months in 2023 produced over $635,000 in bridging volume. Alchemy suggested that this increased activity may have been reinforced by successful airdrops from Optimism and Arbitrum in Q1, 2023.
In addition to increased asset bridging from users, layer 2s also showed greater activity from developers. Although the deployment of smart contracts related to layer 2s decreased by 30% relative to Q4 2022, it still increased by 160% when compared to Q1, 2022, the report said.and crypto prices during 2022, with scandals like the UST depegging and FTX collapse causing many investors to shy away.
