- Layer 1 coins Ethereum, Cardano, DOT, AVAX have yielded between 5% to 10% gains for holders since March 28.
- With Bitcoin trading sideways, Layer 1 coins and meme coins have witnessed a spike in their prices.
- Experts believe Layer 1 coins are likely to sustain their recent gains, with active development activity outpacing Layer 2.
Layer 2 assets dominated the narrative on crypto Twitter for months before Layer 1 coins made a comeback. Ethereum (ETH), Cardano (ADA), Polkadot (DOT) and Avalanche (AVAX) rank among the Layer 1 coins that yielded gains for holders since March 28.

Over the past few months the Layer 2 coins in the Ethereum ecosystem piqued the interest of crypto market participants. With Arbitrum airdrop and relevant announcements, there was a spike in demand for Layer 2 coins.
Bitcoin’s recent pullback and the “alt season narrative” have turned the spotlight towards Layer 1 coins in the crypto ecosystem. Ethereum, its alternatives Cardano, Solana and Avalanche rank among the smart contract networks whose tokens have yielded gains for holders.
