Throwback: "The Surge" dropped two years ago this week

Oct 17, 2024. Vitalik published part 2 of his Ethereum futures series. The Surge goals: 100,000+ TPS across L1 and L2, keep L1 decentralized, and make Ethereum "feel like one ecosystem, not 34 different blockchains." Two years later, the one-ecosystem part is still the hard one. $ETH sits near $2,363 today.

Did the L2 plan deliver for you?

🚨 $100B IN 3.5 MONTHS — A BROKERAGE L2 JUST OUTTRADED BASE 👀

Robinhood Chain just cleared $100 billion in cumulative DEX volume, only 3.5 months after its July 1 mainnet launch. DefiLlama pegs all-time volume at ~$112B, with $1.17B changing hands in the last 24 hours alone.

The monthly ramp tells the story: ~$15.3B in July, ~$19.4B in August, then nearly triple to $56B in September. Over the last 30 days it pushed ~$38.6B, beating Coinbase's Base ($30.5B) and running nearly 7x Arbitrum One.

Two footnotes worth knowing. First, over 80% of its early volume was memecoin speculation (CASHCAT led the charge, it's still sitting in DEX trending pools today). Second, Uniswap V3 + V4 handle roughly three-quarters of all flow on the chain, and 10% of the $46M+ in fees goes back to Arbitrum.

TVL sits at ~$1.06B with stablecoins above $1B. That's real capital, not just volume.

So is this the fastest retail onboarding in L2 history, or a memecoin casino with great distribution?

Not financial advice. DYOR.

🎯 The trending list has changed—L2s and public chains are quietly attracting capital

📰 Injective, NEAR, and Starknet top Binance’s trending list. ETH is up 3% to $2,435, outpacing BTC, which has gained just 1.4% in 24 hours.

💬 When BTC trades sideways, hot money goes looking for a story. It’s hard to say whether this rally in L2s and public chains is catch-up growth or the start of a real move, but at least it shows that capital hasn’t gone dormant.

🎯 The zero-knowledge sector, quiet for ages, has suddenly resurfaced, while ETH is quietly leading the way

📰 ZKsync and Starknet both shot up the trending charts. ETH gained 2.5% in 24 hours, leaving Bitcoin’s 0.6% far behind

💬 Honestly, Bitcoin is stuck at 82K, barely moving, so capital is turning to L2s in search of a story. Whether ETH can ride this wave depends on whether the narrative is truly warming up—don’t rush in just because of the excitement

The zkEVM landscape has shifted gears. @VitalikButerin believes the race for speed has largely been decided, and that zkEVMs should now shift their primary focus entirely to security.

@ProjectZKM’s Ziren is clearly already ahead of the curve. As the first zkVM to prove Geth, it has also used Lean4 to establish constraint determinism for 57 VM chips, backed by 104 theorem proofs. As is well known, securing the proof system itself takes the longest. Compared with performance work, security work is slower and less visible, yet Ziren has had the foresight to devote most of its effort to this area.

This is a crucial and wise trade-off. Security comes before everything else. Performance can be boosted through iterative engineering, but the security of a proof system has to be built up layer by layer through formalization, theorem proving, and reliability arguments. Security is a marathon of endurance.

@GOATNetwork brings settlement onto the Bitcoin network, using BitVM3 to connect Bitcoin settlement. Ziren strengthens the security foundation with its zkVM and proof system. Now Vitalik’s view that zkEVM security should come first adds further directional validation to this approach.

Looking ahead, as the full design is made public, independent reviews increase, and client diversity and formal verification continue to advance, GOAT Network’s position at the intersection of Bitcoin bridges and zkVMs will become clearer. Its potential comes from a security-first engineering approach, an integrated in-house team, a verifiable proof system, open and transparent research releases, and the enduring demand for Bitcoin settlement. It is pushing the security standards for Bitcoin bridges toward verifiability, auditability, and formalization. Investors are likely to be willing to give projects like this more time and greater attention.

For an L2 token, is its biggest bullish catalyst really “outsourcing the server maintenance”?

Uniswap has handed full responsibility for operating and maintaining its own L2 chain, Unichain, to Optimism’s OP Enterprise: the OP team is taking over the sequencer, RPC, monitoring, and alerts. The testnet migration was completed on the 13th, and the mainnet handover is scheduled for the 29th.

After the news broke, $OP surged nearly 20% at one point today, hitting $0.162. Daily trading volume reached $226 million, more than doubling, making it the standout in the L2 sector—especially since $BTC $ETH was still languishing under the shadow of CPI at the same time.

But here’s the interesting part: after climbing halfway, it gave back half of its gains and is now hovering around $0.15. A 64% gain over 30 days sounds impressive, but look at the yearly chart and it’s still 68% below where it was a year ago.

So here’s the million-dollar question: what actually drives L2 valuations? Technology, users, or “getting Uniswap in your corner”? Do the people buying in today really understand what OP Enterprise does, or did they just see the word “up”?

Pick a side in the comments: A, this is reshaping the L2 landscape and Superchain is finally going to make it; B, it’s just an emotional flash in the pan, with everyone above $0.16 waiting to break even.

🎯 Altcoins are done pumping memes and are starting to rotate into infrastructure

📰 Trending searches are dominated by STRK, OP, NEAR, and QNT—all L2 and infrastructure projects. BTC is stuck at $83K on declining volume, down 2.5% over 7 days

💬 Honestly, investors have gotten wiser. Once they’re tired of meme coins, they turn to sectors with real demand. Infrastructure can weather a fading narrative, but without volume to back it up, it’s just spinning its wheels. Watch trading volume before making a move

🏷️ #STRK #OP #NEAR #L2 #SectorRotation

🚀 $STRK IS PUMPING +57% TODAY!

$STRK at $0.116 with $860M volume! 📈

Why pumping?
✅ L2 → L1 Transition hype - Quantum resistant L1 coming
✅ 33M tokens withdrawn from CEX in 2 days (Accumulation)
✅ TVL +32%, Active Addresses +41%

Is STRK heading to $0.20 next? Or pullback coming?

The Ethereum scaling landscape is shifting: Optimism will take over Unichain’s underlying operations. According to the migration announcement on October 9, Uniswap Labs’ L2 chain Unichain plans to hand over production-grade sequencing, public node access, onchain monitoring, and incident response to the Optimism team. The testnet migration is scheduled for October 13, with the mainnet migration set for October 29. This continues Optimism’s “infrastructure only” strategy: product teams focus on applications and the ecosystem, while Optimism handles unified operations of the underlying infrastructure. The September agreement with Soneium followed the same model.

Investing involves risk. The data in this post was collected from the internet and does not constitute investment advice. Please do your own research.

Bitcoin rose 0.53% to 83,100, Ethereum gained 0.80%, and SOL rose 0.93%. Today marks the second consecutive day of broad-based gains. All eight sectors posted positive median returns, and even the sector with the lowest share of advancers reached 60%, while two sectors hit 100%.

L2 scaling posted a 100% share of advancers for the second consecutive day, with a median gain of 6.02%. STRK rose 42.8%, ZK gained 8.1%, and OP rose 6.0%. Yesterday, I wrote that two consecutive days of broad-based gains would be needed before entering. That condition has been met today.

Payments and settlements also had 100% breadth, with a median gain of 0.97%. After four consecutive days at zero, the sector has now seen all tokens rise for a second straight day. The reversal has turned into a trend. These are the two sectors most worth noting today.

The largest sector by weight, L1 blockchains, recorded $801 million in trading volume, with 87% of tokens advancing and a median gain of 1.52%. NEAR rose 8.0%, and APT gained 6.5%. DeFi was at 84%, AI at 89%, and privacy at 80%. Meme was the weakest of the eight sectors, at just 60%.

My view is straightforward: two sectors have now met the condition of consecutive days of broad-based gains—L2 scaling and payments and settlements. This is the first time in the past two days that I’ve seen conditions for a potential entry. Next, we’ll need to see whether breadth in these two areas holds for a third day.

🎯 The scaling sector has suddenly come back from the dead

📰 LUMIA is up 37% over 24h, ERA 28%, CFX 19.6%, and OP 10%—all L2 and modularity plays

💬 BTC is flat on low volume, while capital has turned to obscure scaling coins for a lightning raid. Trading volumes are only in the tens of millions of dollars. These sector-wide rallies often last just a day, so chasing them could leave you holding the bag

Came across this on Cointelegraph: Ethereum Economic Zone (EEZ) has completed its first atomic L1→L2 cross-chain transaction on mainnet.

The key detail: a contributor shared a 0.001 ETH cross-chain call that also updated rollup state—all or nothing, with a full rollback if anything fails, and no traditional bridge involved. EEZ aims to let mainnet and all L2s compose synchronously in a single transaction, helping address fragmented liquidity. A Hydration co-founder even called it one of the most important milestones in crypto. It’s still an early demo, not a production launch.

With more and more L2s coming online, if atomic cross-layer composability can really be achieved, it could make a big difference to DeFi deployments and the user experience of moving funds.

$ETH #Ethereum #L2

STRK surged 25% in a single candle and shot to No. 2 on the trending list. I’m cautiously bullish on the short-term momentum—but I’m not chasing.

The whole L2 sector is ripping tonight: OP is up more than 10%, and MANTA and ARB are both deep in the green. Money is rotating into L2s; STRK is just leading the pack.

It’s already up a little over 80% in 60 days. Coins like this rise fast and pull back fast—a single green candle won’t satisfy you for long.

My rules: I’ll look for further upside if it holds above the 0.07769 daily high. If it can’t reclaim that level, I’ll treat it as range-bound.

If it pulls back to the 0.07222 seven-day moving average and holds, I’ll scale in. If it breaks below, I’ll stay away for now.

0.06713 is the emotional floor for this move. If it breaks, I’ll look lower—that’s where real support is.

Bitcoin rose 1.13% to 82,600, while Ethereum gained 0.63%. Today was a broad-based reversal. All eight sectors had positive median returns, and even the sector with the lowest percentage of constituents rising came in at 78%. Yesterday, all eight sectors were in the red.

The most dramatic move was in Payments & Settlement. After four consecutive trading days with 0% of its constituents rising, the figure jumped straight to 83% today: five of its six constituents gained, with BCH up 2.6%, HBAR up 2.2%, and XLM up 1.5%. Four days of one-way declines were wiped out in a single day. That kind of swing suggests the earlier selling had gone too far.

The strongest sector was L2 Scaling, where all five constituents rose, with a median gain of 11.44%. STRK gained 31.2%, ZK rose 23.5%, and OP added 11.4%. I picked STRK yesterday at noon, when it was a single-coin move. Today, the whole sector moved in sync, which is a step up in significance.

The largest sector by weight, L1 Blockchains, saw 1.099 billion in trading volume, with 87% of constituents rising and a median gain of 2.95%. ATOM rose 17.3%, DOT gained 13.7%, and APT climbed 10.7%—all established blockchain names making moves. DeFi came in at 84%, Meme at 90%, AI at 89%, and Oracles & Cross-chain at 78%. No sector was left behind.

My take is straightforward: this is a broad-based reversal, not a rebound in a handful of coins. One caveat, though: going from 0% to 83% in a single day shows that it’s sentiment, not fundamentals, that’s swinging—and this reversal could just as easily unwind in a day. The key thing to watch is whether the market can hold these gains tomorrow. Two consecutive days of broad-based strength would make this a direction worth considering.

#加密货币 #资金流向 #L2

ARB has turned green along with the L2 cohort, but I’m bearish and cautious on its event-driven ecosystem—it has the weakest fundamentals in the group and is merely following the rally.

When ZK led the last move, I said to position in the laggards when L2s rise broadly. The whole group is confirming that now: OP, MANTA, and METIS are all in the green, while ARB is barely making a move. It can follow, but it has no chance of leading.

ARB is still down over the past 60 days, and the monthly line overhead hasn’t budged. A token that’s been moving sideways for months doesn’t prove anything with one green candle.

My rule: I’ll look for a breakout only if it holds above the monthly line at 0.1881. If it can’t reclaim that level, I’ll treat it as range-bound. If a bounce toward the daily high comes on low volume, I’ll keep selling into it.

0.1621 is the sentiment floor for this move. If it breaks, I’m looking straight to 0.1565—that’s where real support comes in.

For L2 tokens that are just following the rally, do you position early and wait for them to catch up, or only touch leaders like ZK? Comment 1 if you wait for catch-up gains; comment 2$ARB $OP $METIS #L2 if you only touch leaders. #MarketAnalysis

Scrolling through my L2 watchlist tonight, and ZK put itself on the trending list—I’m cautiously bullish on sentiment, but I’ll only buy pullbacks, not chase.

The L2 group is in the green tonight too: ARB got a little lift, while ZK surged nearly 30%. When the whole group rises, it leads the pack—that kind of coin really does have strong short-term buzz.

ZK has also built up quite a bit over the past 60 days. The golden cross just appeared, and it’s been hovering near the daily high—this is the kind of setup I like best: a pullback is a ticket in.

I’ve seen this kind of surge too many times: it keeps climbing until you can’t resist, then one bearish candle teaches you a lesson.

My rules: if it pulls back to 0.01332 and holds, I’ll buy in batches; if it breaks below, I’ll stay away for now. I’ll talk about further upside only after it holds above the daily high. Then, I’ll watch resistance at 0.01523.

0.01025 is the sentiment floor for this move. If it breaks, the golden cross is invalidated.
