Ethereum Price Today
*Ethereum price updated as of 11 PM.
Ethereum’s innovative smart contract technology has made it a standout altcoin since its inception in 2015. Continuous major network upgrades ensure Ethereum stays ahead in smart contract innovation. The latest upgrade, Cancun, launched on March 13, 2024.
ETH’s year-to-date (YTD) performance continues to increase and currently sits at 33%. This recent slump in Bitcoin price has affected the YTD gains, which have dropped from 50% since November 11. As of December 5, 2024, if you invested $10,000 in ETH on January 1, 2024, your portfolio, after 317 days, would be up roughly $3,317. Ethereum’s market capitalization stands at $409.0 billion.
Ethereum ranks second in market capitalization, valued at $409.0 billion, after Bitcoin’s $1.73 trillion. Together, BTC & ETH’s market capitalization constitutes 83% of the total crypto market cap.
Despite this recent downtick and recovery, the 24-hour trading volume of Ethereum is $41.7 billion.
The 24-hour trading volume of Ethereum is $41.7 billion. Binance is the largest contributor to this trading volume – about 11% is contributed by spot trading and nearly 40% from futures trading. Exchanges like OKX, Bitget, and ByBit follow Binance.
The London hard fork is a significant Ethereum blockchain upgrade. It changed the network from Proof-of-Work (PoW) to Proof-of-Stake (PoS). Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently shared his thoughts on X (formerly Twitter). He explained how Proof-of-Stake (PoS) is more decentralized than Proof-of-Work (PoW).
Here are some key upgrades in the past five years that shaped Ethereum as the second-largest crypto by market capitalization.
2024:
Muir Glacier: Delayed the “difficulty bomb” to ensure a smooth transition to PoS.
The blockchain upgrades Ethereum receives aim to solve the trilemma of blockchain, i.e., balancing decentralization, security, and scalability. The switch to Proof-of-Stake (PoS) enhanced these aspects. Ethereum’s transaction fees (gas fees) plummeted post-upgrade, drawing more investors. Gas fees are like taxes, measured in Gwei, required for secure transactions.
As of December 5, the gas fee for a transaction on the ETH network as of 11 PM is 15.84 Gwei.
When Ethereum’s on-chain value grows, presenting opportunities, investors flock, driving gas fees up. This typically occurs during market upswings, peaking at all-time highs.

Between 2023 and 2050, Ethereum’s price will most likely follow the bullish outlook and aim for the six-digit territory. The lowest price point is $16,092.58, and the highest price of Ether is $145,915.83.
Ethereum price trades below the $3,300 and $3,500 resistance levels. As discussed yesterday, a breach of this key hurdle will help with ETH’s directional bias. As seen in the below chart, the bullish momentum seems to be picking up, leading to a breakout attempt. For a successful move, Ether needs to flip $3,500 into a support level. Such a development will signal that the buyers are back and will open the path for the next key hurdle, $4,000, roughly 15% away.
In case of a strong spike in buying pressure then Ethereum price could continue its ascent toward the next key levels – $4,500 and $5,000. A retest of $5,000 would need a 42% rally from the $3,500 level.
So, a flip of $3,500 is key for ETH to hit the $5,000 psychological level.
On the other hand, if Ethereum price gets rejected at $3,500 or $3,300, it would signal weakness. Such a development would indicate that the buyers are not ready, and investors could likely be booking profits. Investors can expect a 13% correction that retests $3,000 in this outlook. Here, buyers can recuperate before giving $3,500 another go.
