I just realized something quite interesting about the recent development trend of the crypto market – what layer 1 really is is becoming the main focus for investors, and it's no coincidence.

It's simple: layer 1 blockchains are the independent foundational blockchains that operate as the main network and have the ability to process and finalize transactions on their own without relying on other networks. Each layer 1 has its own native token to pay for transaction fees, and also serves as the infrastructure for other applications and protocols built on top of it.

However, early generation layer 1 blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum have quite clear limitations in speed. Taking Bitcoin as an example, each block contains about 1,700 transactions and takes 10 minutes to mine, resulting in a TPS of only 2.83. Even the best blocks only reach 4.17 TPS. Ethereum creates a new block every 13 seconds, but with a gas limit of 30 million per block, the average TPS is only around 11.8.

This is why new layer 1 projects are emerging – to overcome these weaknesses. Solana reaches 110,000 TPS, Aptos up to 160,000 TPS – these numbers clearly show a leap in performance. That’s why investing in layer 1 blockchains offers safety along with the potential for significantly higher profit growth.

Currently, I’m paying attention to three layer 1 blockchains in this cycle: APT is at $0.98, up 2.95% in 24 hours; SUI is at $1.15, up 8.29%; and SEI is at $0.06, up 4.12%. These figures indicate a quite positive recovery. I will have a more in-depth analysis for everyone soon.

Wishing everyone to hold their layer 1 coins firmly and hit big gains. Follow me so you don’t miss the upcoming analyses.
