Manta Network has surpassed the Base Network to become Ethereum’s fourth largest Layer 2 solution.

According to the L2Beat platform, $858 million has already been locked in smart contracts on the new Manta Network blockchain. The surge in interest in the network was likely caused by the launch of the bridge and a potential airdrop for Manta users.

However, Manta’s market share is relatively small overall – only 3.87%. The leader remains Arbitrum One, which holds almost 50% of the total TVL market with a market share of 49.78%.

Earlier in January, the Arbitrum One network broke a new record. At the beginning of the year, the blockchain saw a noticeable positive net inflow of TVL, exceeding $11.04 billion, setting a historical record. Total TVL across Level 2 networks also reached a historically high level in January, exceeding $21 billion.
