This week saw significant momentum shift toward ZK-based rollups, with zkSync Era posting an 8.1% TVL increase — the strongest weekly gain among major protocols. The trend reflects growing developer confidence in ZK proof generation efficiency improvements deployed in Q1.
Bridge volumes surged 12.3% across all tracked protocols, driven primarily by Arbitrum and Base onboarding activity. Active addresses dipped slightly, suggesting consolidation of existing users rather than new market entrants.
Looking ahead, the StarkNet community proposal for dynamic fee adjustment could reshape competitive dynamics if adopted. We continue to monitor the narrowing gap between Optimistic and ZK rollup market share.
