It’s five days since the London hardfork upgrade went live last Thursday, August 5. Since then the ETH price has been showing strength and has recently made a move to $3,200 levels. As of press time, ETH is trading 5.03% up at a price of $3110 with a market cap of $363 billion.
Post the EIP-1559 implementation, the amount of token burning also seems to be going strong. The latest data from Etherchain shows that the amount of ETH burned has exceeded 20,000 amounting to a massive $60 million USD.
The burnt rate in the last 24 hours has remained at 3 ETH/minute while the issuance rate remains at 6.7ETH/min. The base fee has been staying at 30.7 Gwei.
The EIP-1559 implementation has introduced a base fee structure thereby making the Ethereum blockchain network deflationary. Besides, the ETH burning mechanism further reduces the supply of Ethereum on the exchanges. This creates a bullish momentum ahead for Ethereum.
