Linea

Linea is a Layer 2 network for Ethereum that uses zkEVM technology to make smart contracts run faster and cost less, while still keeping Ethereum’s security. The network is designed for institutions, offering tools for custodians, marketplaces, and developers who want lower fees and higher transaction speeds.

People use Linea for DeFi, NFT launches, payments, tokenization, and onchain settlements. This includes everything from low-cost trading to big asset tokenization projects. Since it is EVM equivalent, developers can move their existing Ethereum dapps to Linea with few changes, making it easier for teams who want to avoid rewriting code. The network also focuses on practical features like enterprise integrations and partnerships with custodians.

Linea launched its public mainnet in mid-2023 after a long testing phase led by ConsenSys, the company behind MetaMask and Infura. ConsenSys leads the project and has strong ties with institutions and investors who have supported it over the years.

Linea saw fast but uneven adoption. In the first weeks, it handled millions of transactions and large amounts of bridged assets, showing strong early interest. Through 2024 and into 2025, the ecosystem’s total value locked and active users grew as more dapps launched, and talk about token rewards brought in more activity. However, some numbers have been volatile, with both big increases and drops as market conditions and incentives changed.

$LINEA is the network’s native token, mainly used for ecosystem rewards and incentives instead of being the only gas token. Gas fees on Linea are paid in ETH, but LINEA is given to builders and users as rewards and to help new apps get started. Plans for the token include grants, ecosystem funding, and distributions to early users. Some token events and unlocks have been announced, and market watchers pay attention to these because they change the circulating supply.
