Avalanche’s blockchain activity has increased dramatically since classic online game MapleStory got a Web3 makeover on the network.
The Avalanche blockchain surpassed 1 million daily transactions twice in the span of a week, which was the first time the network hit this milestone since February 2024.
Avalanche transactions topped the mark on June 1 and again on Saturday. Total transactions for the week beginning June 2 reached 5.8 million, the highest weekly total since early 2024, according to data from blockchain analytics platform Nansen.
The spike in activity was largely driven by MapleStory Universe, Avalanche noted on X. MapleStory Universe is a Web3 gaming ecosystem built on Avalanche. Its first game, MapleStory N, launched on May 15.
