Crypto Market Pulse Weekly - 🚀 Ethereum Dencun Upgrade Went Live!
Crypto Market Pulse Weekly - 🚀 Ethereum Dencun Upgrade Went Live!Ethereum Dencun upgrade went live. VanEck temporarily removes management Bitcoin ETF HODL. CoinShares acquires Valkyrie’s ETFs business.
Weekly Market IndexLast week’s crypto market price index dropped by -1.75%, while the volume and volatility indices were up +1.32% and +7.76%, respectively. Bitcoin rose to a new all-time high of US$73,777 last week, but shortly dropped to near $64,500. Ether also dropped from $4,000 to $3,600. The release of higher-than-expected wholesale price data in the United States led to a shift in expectations regarding potential cuts in interest rates by the Federal Reserve. This has resulted in an increase in interest rates and a decline in the prices of risky assets. Chart of the WeekThe much-anticipated Ethereum Dencun upgrade was successfully activated on 13 March with one of the most anticipated Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs), EIP-4844, that introduced ‘data blobs’. These data blobs bypass the traditional ‘call data’ process to publish information on the Ethereum mainnet, providing lower transaction fees in Ethereum Layer-2 (L2) networks. Subsequently, Ethereum L2 protocols have experienced a significant reduction in transaction fees, with some platforms seeing over a 90% decrease following the upgrade. Notably, Arbitrum, Optimism, zkSync, Base, Starknet, and other L2 platforms witnessed substantial drops in gas fees post-upgrade, with Optimism's median transaction fees decreasing to the range of $0.005 (from ~$0.44) and Arbitrum’s fees to $0.05 (from ~$0.41). Weekly PerformanceBitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) fell by -1.2% and -7.2%, respectively, in the past seven days. Price action for other selected top-cap tokens was mostly negative. Layer-1 coins NEAR and SOL outperformed. Selected key categories all fell in terms of market capitalisation change in the past seven days, led by Layer-2. News Highlights
