According to Milk Road’s interview with Michael Nadeau, recent data shows that Base, a Layer 2 solution, is capturing significant transaction volume and user activity that would traditionally occur on Ethereum mainnet. Nadeau highlights that Base’s rapid growth is leading to higher on-chain activity and DeFi volume on its network, potentially diverting transaction fees and user engagement from Ethereum L1. For traders, this shift suggests a redistribution of value accrual, with Base-based tokens and projects possibly gaining momentum while Ethereum Layer 1 fee revenue faces pressure (source: Milk Road via x.com/i/broadcasts/1…). Monitoring transaction flows and liquidity migration to Base can provide actionable trading insights for both ETH and Base ecosystem assets.
