Ethereum Sets New Record for Daily Transaction Volume
- Ethereum’s daily transaction volume reached a historical high of 1.87 million on December 31, exceeding the previous peak of 1.61 million in May 2021.
- Active wallets on the Ethereum network hit 728,904, the highest level since May 2021.
- More than 270,000 new addresses were created in a single day, marking the largest one-day increase since early 2018.
- The surge is attributed to network upgrades—Pectra and Fusaka—which improved processing capacity and reduced fees.
- Increased institutional interest and developments in real asset tokenization have further driven demand for Ethereum transactions.
The recent upgrades have significantly enhanced user engagement and lowered costs for transactions on the Ethereum network, attracting more participants and institutional players alike.
With a record transaction volume surpassing previous highs, Ethereum continues to solidify its role as a leading platform for decentralized applications and stablecoin infrastructure.(Source)
