About Layer 2 Coins
Layer 2 scaling solutions that improve blockchain speed and reduce transaction costs. The layer 2 coins category on Kriptomat tracks 10 tokens and provides real-time price data, market capitalisation, trading volume, and performance metrics.
Understanding market trends in the layer 2 coins sector can help investors identify opportunities and manage risk. Our data comes from Kriptomat APS for prices and Santiment for on-chain analytics, including sentiment analysis and flow indicators.
Each token in this category is evaluated using the Kriptomat Flow Index (KFI), which measures smart money accumulation and distribution patterns, and a Sentiment score derived from social media and on-chain activity. These proprietary indicators complement traditional metrics like market cap and volume.
