Fantom’s Transaction Count Up 2400% Since May
Given the high performance and scalability of the Fantom network, it has attracted lots of decentralised projects, including Sushiswap, Curve and C.R.E.A.M (aka Cream Finance). The transaction count and value of digital assets locked on the network have also increased by 2,400 percent to over US$750 million since May.
