Matchain reaches #1 on DappRadar: A closer look at the fastest-growing Layer2

The numbers don’t lie. Matchain is surging ahead, faster than any other blockchain right now.

No other chain is growing this fast.

For the first time, Matchain ranks as the #1 Layer 2 blockchain on DappRadar’s 7-day rankings.

The latest data also shows:

– 137.88% user growth in one week– Among the top 3 most visited blockchains– The most active Layer 2 blockchain by transactions globally

This level of sustained growth raises an important question:

What’s driving Matchain’s rapid adoption?

Matchain’s rapid rise is a combination of increased user activity, strategic updates, and an ecosystem that is gaining real momentum.

1. Matchain is the #1 Layer 2 on DappRadar

Matchain has taken the top spot in DappRadar’s Layer 2 rankings, surpassing opBNB and Base. This ranking is based on unique active wallets (UAW), transactions, and ecosystem activity, making it a strong signal of real adoption.

2. Most active Layer 2 by transactions

Matchain has now processed more transactions than any other Layer 2, reflecting not just user growth but actual on-chain engagement.

3. A breakthrough moment in visibility

Matchain entered the top 3 most visited blockchains globally for the first time. While visibility doesn’t always translate to long-term adoption, it is a key indicator that more users and developers are paying attention.

What’s fueling this momentum?

Matchain’s rise is backed by product updates that are making the chain more accessible, scalable and developer-friendly.

Recent updates include:

– Search by category: Discover the best dApps quickly.– Invite tracking: See who joins Matchain through your invites.– Gas incentives: Free gas claims lower entry barriers for new users.

– MatchID Passport linked with POH: An easy way to verify identity.– Clearer user agreements: Smoother, more transparent interactions.– Easier contact management: Add, search and track friends in one place.

These are all updates that reduce friction and make Matchain a more attractive option for users, brands and developers alike.

The momentum is just getting started

The impact of this growth means more builders launching on Matchain,more users engaging with dApps, and an ecosystem that continues to scale.

More energy behind what’s next in Web3 More developers bringing projects to Matchain More users transacting, exploring, and participating

A blockchain that grows this fast doesn’t follow trends, it sets them.
