Ethereum news
Ethereum’s fee structure, which gives the network a burning mechanism, is increasing day by day due to the increased network load and the underlying fees. This has resulted in the amount of money burned on the Ethereum network in the past 24 hours reaching $ 35 million.
Amount of tokens affected burn in the network inevitably leads to the formation of deflationary blocks. From an economic standpoint, the deflation will benefit the long- and medium-term owners who were able to amass large amounts of ETH prior to the EIP-1559 update.
Previously, analysts and experts had predicted that Ethereum would become deflationary by the end of the year. However, large embossing volumes in various NFT projects and general overloads have resulted in the current state of the network. There is a chance that as soon as the NFT volume goes down, the base fee and burn rate will also go down.
