What Blast scales
Blast is an Ethereum Layer-2 / scaling network token, currently ranked 422nd by market capitalization among the assets we track. Blast is an Ethereum Layer-2: it executes transactions off the main chain, then posts compressed proofs back to Ethereum for final settlement. Users get cheaper, faster transactions while inheriting Ethereum's security.
How rollup settlement works
Transactions are cheap on Blast because thousands of them share one L1 settlement. The economics hinge on data-availability costs and how much the rollup can charge above them.
Where Blast sits in the market
With BLAST near $0.00043000, Blast carries a market capitalization of $19.91M. Around $41.41M changes hands across exchanges in a typical 24-hour window. That is a turnover of about 207.92% of the float — unusually high, the kind of churn that accompanies major news or speculative spikes.
What the price history shows
Across timeframes, BLAST shows 24-hour +52.94%, 7-day +50.58%. Across roughly the last 366 days of daily candles, BLAST endured a peak-to-trough drawdown of about 88% before stabilizing.
Volatility profile
Recent action puts Blast in the Extreme-volatility band — it is in a high-volatility regime — these are the conditions where outsized gains and losses both become more likely.
How to evaluate an L2 like Blast
For an asset of this type, three lenses matter most:
- Activity captured — transactions, fees, and TVL that Blast has pulled from Ethereum mainnet and rival L2s.
- Decentralization roadmap — sequencer decentralization and whether the proof system is live and trust-minimized.
- Token accrual — how — or whether — BLAST actually captures the value the rollup generates.
