- Transaction Volume Breakthrough: By the end of 2025, Ethereum's weekly average transaction volume reached 1.87 million, surpassing the previous record of 1.61 million set in May 2021, indicating a significant increase in network activity and solidifying its central role in the digital economy.
- Surge in New Addresses: Over 270,000 new addresses were created in a single day, marking the largest spike since 2018, which reflects the influx of new users and increased engagement from existing participants, driving expansion in decentralized finance (DeFi) and NFT markets.
- Fee Stability: Despite the surge in transaction volume, Ethereum's network fees remained stable, thanks to technical updates like Pectra and Fusaka that significantly enhanced scalability and cost efficiency, ensuring a continued positive user experience.
- Institutional Investment Boost: The rise in institutional investments, particularly through reliable stablecoin usage and asset tokenization, has further strengthened demand and liquidity for the Ethereum network, laying a solid foundation for future growth.
