Record Activity Levels in the Ethereum Ecosystem
In August, the number of unique transactions on the Ethereum network over 30 days reached an all-time high. User activity also increased, with the number of active addresses ranking second in the network’s entire history. The total value locked (TVL) in the Ethereum ecosystem remains near peak levels, indicating continued growth in trust in this network.
Analysts note that several factors contributed to the increase in transaction volumes: in addition to the record number of unique transactions and high address activity, institutional interest in Ethereum continues to grow. Corporate treasuries are actively increasing their ETH reserves, and trading volumes for spot ETFs on Ethereum are showing positive dynamics. At the same time, the average transaction fees on the network have dropped to their lowest levels in recent years.
Expert Assessments and ETH Price Dynamics
Experts at Standard Chartered stated that Ethereum remains an undervalued asset. In their view, the drivers include corporate use of the coin, interest in ETFs, and Ethereum’s strengthening position relative to Bitcoin.
At the time of preparing this material, the price of Ethereum is approaching the $4400 mark. According to recent statements from analysts, interest in ETH from institutional investors is growing faster than that in Bitcoin, which is also supported by data on market fund flows.
Thus, August 2025 has become one of the most successful months for Ethereum in recent years, both in terms of transaction volume and user activity metrics as well as asset price.
