Flow’s network activity and balance-sheet metrics accelerated sharply in the second quarter, according to a Messari report released this week. Total value locked on the layer-1 blockchain reached an all-time high of about $68 million, a 46 percent increase from the previous quarter, while smart-contract deployments jumped 473 percent over the same period. Average daily transactions rose 602 percent after Flow integrated cross-chain protocol LayerZero, underscoring a broader expansion in user activity. Stablecoin balances on the network climbed almost 30 percent, driven largely by PayPal-issued PYUSD. Growth has been helped by marquee partnerships. Disney Pinnacle is offering digital collectibles to roughly 50 million Disney+ subscribers, a move Flow says represents one of Web3’s largest mainstream onboarding efforts. The blockchain also touts itself as the fastest-growing developer ecosystem among layer-1 networks, citing repeated wins at EthGlobal hackathons. Further momentum may come later this year when game-infrastructure provider Forte is scheduled to go live on the network in October, potentially adding another source of transactions and locked value.
