Ethereum is currently trading above its previous ATH of $ 4,632, which it hit on May 12th. The asset is up 540% since the start of the year, even outperforming Bitcoin, which is up 125% over the same period.

The popular Twitter analyst “LilMoonLambo” commented:

“Buying ETH for $ 4,600 in 2021 is the same as buying BTC for $ 4,600 in 2017.”

Ethereum’s market cap is currently $ 560 billion, higher than that of Wall Street bank JPMorgan Chase, but lower than that of Chinese tech giant Tencent’s $ 576 billion.

Ethereum’s hashrate has also hit a new high, according to online on-chain analytics provider Glassnode. This is the first time the Ethereum hashrate has hit 1 EH / s versus the previous ATH of 876 TH / s on Nov 2nd. The difficulty of Ethereum mining is also currently at an all-time high.

In addition, the number of Ethereum exchanges leaving exchanges is increasing. Around $ 6.4 billion in ETH went into the exchanges, while $ 8 billion remained, resulting in a net loss of $ 1.6 billion last week.

The Open Interest (OI) of Ethereum futures has even reached an all-time high of $ 2 billion at Bitfinex, according to Glassnode.

Transaction fees have also been quite high lately, although they have dropped to an average of around $ 40, according to BitInfoCharts.

Higher gas charges mean that more ETH was burned through the new mechanism introduced in EIP-1559 in early August. According to Ultrasound.Money, almost 800,000 ETH have been burned in the past three months. At current prices, it is valued at around $ 3.7 billion.
