Amid uncertainty around the role of L2s, MegaETH launched its mainnet on Monday, and early on-chain data shows the network didn't arrive quietly. The Ethereum Layer 2 described as a 'real-time' blockchain went live with more than 50 apps already deployed. By the end of its first day, MegaETH had processed nearly 39 million transactions, averaging about 28 to 29 transactions per second. The launch came with major protocol support, with Aave going live on MegaETH on day one, using Chainlink's data and cross-chain infrastructure. As part of the deal, MegaETH committed to a five-year revenue guarantee of at least $10 million for the Aave DAO. Chainlink was also integrated through its Scale program, giving MegaETH access to price feeds and cross-chain connectivity.
