The latest layer-2 crypto data released by Phoenix Group and LunarCrush as of November 4, 2025, shows that Layer-2 projects have seen serious surges in social activity. ZK and Linea became the leaders, which came as a result of the growing interest of investors to scalability solutions. ZK shared 6.4K engaged posts and more than 1.1 million interactions whereas Linea has a closest score of 5.9K engaged posts and an astounding 2.1 million interactions which is the best among all competitors.
The data points out that even though ZK had more posts, the content of Linea created more interest and this was an indication that the community base had high activity and responsiveness.
Starknet and Celo Secure Mid-Tier Momentum
Starknet (STRK) and Celo had strong engagement numbers in the middle tier of social traction. Starknet has 2.3K actively engaged posts and 830.6K interactions, indicating that the community is very active in regards to ecosystem updates, and decentralized app integrations.
However, Celo, mostly referred to as Layer-1 chain, still incorporates the Layer-2 compatible tools, obtaining new momentum. Celo had 1.6K active postings and 1.8 million interactions as compared to a number of already established projects which had lower user interactions. The hype can be explained by its sustainability-oriented story and growing use in mobile DeFi apps.
Stacks and Arbitrum Maintain Steady Activity Across Layer-2s
Stacks (STX) and Arbitrum (ARB) were also stable in the rankings and showed their relevance over the course of time in an extremely competitive marketplace. Stacks recorded 1.5K engaged posts and 265K interactions and demonstrated resiliency to user-driven conversation amidst wider market fluctuations.
At the same time, Arbitrum as one of the oldest Layer-2 solutions also obtained 1.3K engaged posts and 106.3K interactions. Although its interactions levels were low relative to the newer ones, its robust developer experience and expansive DeFi integrations still keep its sway going. According to analysts, Arbitrum has concentrated on governance and interoperability, which would revitalize its social metrics in weeks to come.
Zora and Immutable X Capture Creative and Gaming Crowds
Some of the upcoming competitors whose niche activity was high included Zora and Immutable X (IMX). Having 1.3K active posts and 115K interactions, Zora has become the center of NFT creators and digital artists, especially since the introduction of its extended minting protocol.
Immutable X, the company that deals with blockchain gaming, has shown 1.1K recorded posts and 280.3K interactions. Its metrics portray the increasing enthusiasm towards play-to-earn ecosystems and tokenized gaming assets.
With blockchain gaming having come back into the spotlight of investors, the performance of Immutable X highlights how community interaction can be employed by entertainment-driven platforms to compete with financial Layer-2 networks.
Polygon and Mantle Close the Rankings
At the bottom, Polygon (POL) and Mantle (MNT) started reporting similar though minor engagement footprints. Polygon recorded 991 engaged posts and 134.2K interactions, suggesting that the company still discusses its rebranding and ecosystem members.
Although Polygon is among the oldest Layer-2 success stories, its competition is even more challenging with newer ones like Linea and ZK.
In the meantime, Mantle completed the list with 878 active posts and 80.3K interactions. Although its interaction metrics are lower, Mantle is currently advancing to modular Layer-2 infrastructure, which means that it may grow in the future.
Layer-2 Ecosystem Reflects Strong Community Growth
The general statistics is a bright example of the changing Layer-2 ecosystem, wherein social activity can be used as an important indicator of community strength and market relevance.
These engagement metrics determine which Layer-2 networks are starting to captivate the imagination of the public, as social signals become increasingly important as a tool that allows investors to assess the momentum of a network and which may be central to the next wave of blockchain expansion.
