Feasibility Enabled by Layer 2 Solutions

Historically, high gas fees on the Ethereum mainnet posed significant challenges to on-chain grid trading. Complex on-chain strategies were often unfeasible due to prohibitively high transaction costs. However, with the rise of Layer 2 (L2) solutions like Base and Optimism, gas fees have dramatically decreased—with some transactions costing as little as $0.01—and transaction speeds have greatly improved. This makes on-chain grid trading strategies not only feasible but also more efficient, unlocking unprecedented market opportunities.
