Fraxtal is an EVM-equivalent Ethereum Layer-2 built on the OP Stack with frxETH as the native gas token. It targets high-throughput DeFi across the Frax ecosystem—FRAX stablecoin settlement, frxETH staking/liquidity, lending (Fraxlend), AMMs (Fraxswap)—plus low-cost payments and apps. Typical performance: ~2-second blocks, cents-level average gas (often <$0.05 per transfer/swap with EIP-4844), and realized throughput in the single to low–double-digit TPS range, comparable to other OP Stack L2s.
Fraxtal is unique in aligning blockspace around frxETH and introducing FXTL points—contract-level incentives that reward apps and users based on on-chain activity—while preserving full EVM equivalence for easy migration. Versus other L2s it delivers similar speed and cost (~2s block time, sub-$0.05 typical fees) but differentiates through native Frax primitives (FRAX, frxETH, Fraxlend, Fraxswap) and ecosystem-driven liquidity incentives that bootstrap activity.
