Why Ethereum’s Long-term Growth Unhindered by Market Pullback
Since late January, the second-largest cryptocurrency Ethereum has been under aggressive recovery evidenced by a parabolic growth in the daily chart. This upsurge witnessed a rally from $2166 to two years high of $4087 recording 88.6% growth.
The crypto analytics platform Santiment has reported a substantial decrease in Ethereum’s transaction fees, despite the cryptocurrency’s price crossing the $4,000 threshold. Current fees average at $9.35, significantly lower than the $62.85 seen during November 2021’s price peak.
This reduction is largely due to the Ethereum 2.0 upgrade, which has enhanced network efficiency. The sustained lower fees may encourage wider ETH adoption and more diverse use cases.

Thus, if the correction trend extends, the coin holders must witness sufficient demand pressure at $3350 and $3124, coinciding with 38.2% and 50% FIB levels.
