Fraxtal is a layer 2 network from the team behind Frax Finance. It is EVM-compatible, so the same smart contracts, wallets and developer tools used on Ethereum work here with little change. As a layer 2, it processes transactions on its own chain and relies on Ethereum for security, which is meant to keep costs lower than transacting on Ethereum directly. Its technical design comes from the Frax ecosystem, so check the official Frax documentation for the latest details on how the chain is run.
The native token is FRAX, which is used to pay network fees, so you need a small balance of it to make transactions. Fees on layer 2 chains are generally lower than on Ethereum mainnet, though they vary with network activity. At the time of writing, DeFi TVL on Fraxtal is about $17.9 million, a modest figure compared with the largest chains. Our site lists 27 dApps that support it.
The ecosystem is built around Frax's own products: Frax Ether (frxETH) for liquid staking, Fraxlend for isolated lending markets and Frax Swap for trading. Established multi-chain protocols also have a presence, including Convex Finance, Curve LlamaLend, Velodrome V2 and V3, Balancer V2 and Mellow Restaking. Cross-chain tools such as LayerZero V2 and Morpho Blue also appear in our listings, but their large TVL figures cover all the chains they run on, not only Fraxtal. Some smaller projects, including dTRINITY dLEND and CrossCurve, have had security incidents, so read each dApp's page before using it.
