- Both zkEVM addresses and active transactions were significantly lower than zkSync Era addresses and transactions

New teacher
Today on Polygon, a popular X handle shares updates on recent blockchain developments open That zkEVM has successfully completed 11 million transactions. The rise in transactions corresponds to the large number of unique addresses, which reached 671,000 – a sign of high adoption.

According to the same, the average gas price at zkEVM has fallen sharply over the past few weeks.

To be precise, while zkSync’s daily active addresses were 256k on May 2, zkEVM had only 2.9k.
A similar trend was also seen in terms of active addresses, where zkSync reached 689K, while zkEVM processed only 10.7K transactions on the same day. In addition, zkSync Era and TVL revenues were significantly higher than zkEVM revenues.
