Several metrics for the עטהערעום network remain bullish but that hasn’t been reflected in the price which could fall further in the short term.

The Ethereum network is still showing solid metrics in terms of staking and activity, however, prices continue to erode ווי די קריפּטאָ ווינטער lengthens.

With more than 14 million ETH staked and 439,425 active validators, the Ethereum network is looking pretty healthy at the moment. At current prices, that works out as a little over $18 billion representing 11.6% of the entire supply of ETH.

Stakers are being rewarded with a current annual interest rate of roughly 4% which beats anything offered by most high street banks. The ETH locked on the Beacon Chain is still immobile and will not be accessible for a few months when it is likely to be released in stages.

Solid Ethereum network stats

Prices could fall further

Unfortunately for investors, none of these bullish statistics have been reflected in recent price action. עטה is currently trading at $1,289 after falling 1.7% on the day. The asset is now down 18% over the past month and 74% since its November all-time high.
