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 July 17, 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 $414.2 billion.
Ethereum ranks second in market capitalization, valued at $414.2 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 $55.9 billion.
The 24-hour trading volume of Ethereum is $55.9 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 July 17, 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.
With Bitcoin edging closer to $100,000, many altcoins have also been skyrocketing. The below chart is a comparison of 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and year-to-date returns of popular altcoins. It is clear that ETH’s performance has been disappointing. The reason for this is Solana and its growing dominance and popularity due to the meme coin frenzy.

With Bitcoin shooting higher, older coins like Litecoin, The Sandbox, and Cardano have also more than doubled in less than 10 days, but ETH holds its ground. Understandably, investors are not having it.
Here’s an example.

Despite Ethereum’s lackluster performance, some believe ETH is ready to shoot higher. CryptoChimpanZ, a crypto analyst, is looking at $6,000 per Ether and firmly believes that “ETH will outperform BTC” in the coming weeks.
Considering that Ethereum’s price has stagnated for so long, it makes sense for an explosive move that will easily overshadow Bitcoin’s performance. Whether this happens before 2024 ends or in 2025 is unsure, but the chances of this happening are high the more ETH consolidates.
