Ethereum price shows strength, but a 23% drop in DApps activity raises concern
Declining DApp activity and lackluster demand for the ETH ETFs could limit Ethereum’s recent price rally.
Ether (ETH) price surged 9.4% between Oct. 10 and Oct. 15, reaching its highest level in two weeks at $2,687. However, despite these recent gains, Ether remains down 25% over the past three months, reflecting investor disappointment with the recently launched spot Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and the overall lack of demand for ETH, despite Ethereum’s focus on prioritizing layer-2 scaling solutions.
In the past 7 days, the Ethereum network saw a 23% decline in onchain decentralized applications (DApp) volumes and this downturn has sparked speculation that Ether’s price could follow suit.
While various factors have negatively affected Ether’s price since mid-July, it is particularly striking that the overall cryptocurrency market capitalization remained relatively flat over the same three-month period.
