Core network demand represents the aggregate usage and activity occurring directly on a blockchain’s foundational layer. This metric includes transaction volume, gas consumption, and the number of active addresses interacting with the primary protocol. High demand indicates robust utility and adoption of the blockchain’s native functionalities. It reflects the fundamental utility derived from the network itself.
Context
The state of core network demand is a primary indicator of a blockchain’s health and utility, frequently cited in performance reports and market analyses. Current discussions often contrast demand on layer-one networks with that on scaling solutions, examining the trade-offs. A critical future development to watch involves how increasing adoption of layer-two solutions impacts layer-one demand, potentially shifting the metrics used to assess core network vitality.
