Top Layer 1 Tokens by Market Capitalisation

Layer 1 (L1) blockchains act as the foundational infrastructure of the Web3 ecosystem, independently processing and recording transactions. These base networks utilise native consensus mechanisms to ensure security and decentralisation. Developers build decentralised applications (dApps) and smart contracts directly on top of these chains. Prominent examples include Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Layer 1 (L1) cryptocurrencies?
Layer 1 (L1) cryptocurrencies are the native tokens of independent blockchain networks. Layer 1 networks possess their own consensus mechanisms and process transactions directly on their own foundational architecture.
How do Layer 1 blockchains differ from Layer 2 scaling networks?
Layer 1 blockchains serve as the base security and settlement layer. In contrast, Layer 2 scaling networks are built on top of Layer 1 blockchains to execute transactions faster and cheaper, eventually settling the final data back to the Layer 1 chain.
What factors drive the market valuation of Layer 1 tokens?
The market valuation of Layer 1 tokens is primarily driven by developer adoption, active user metrics, the total value locked (TVL) within the network, and the utility required to pay for Layer 1 transaction fees.
Why are network transaction fees necessary for Layer 1 blockchains?
Network transaction fees on Layer 1 blockchains incentivise miners or validators to process operations and secure the ledger, while simultaneously preventing malicious spam attacks on the Layer 1 network.
