I was shocked by a set of data today:
At present, more than half of ETH is controlled by 104 whale wallets. To be precise, these 104 addresses hold at least 100,000 Ethereum, and the total holdings currently account for 57.35% of all existing ETH tokens, and the current market value of ether is about $333.1 billion.
At the same time, the supply proportion of wallets holding 100,000-100,000 ETH is the lowest in history, at 33.46%. The proportion of supply of wallets holding less than 100 ETH is 9.19%, a new low in the past four years.
It is difficult to say how this situation will affect the currency price of ETH. If the bookmakers hype together, the price of Ethereum can be speculated to the sky.
But if everyone doesn't play ETH, who will take over in the end?
However, in the early days of Ethereum, Dazhuang never cared about retail investors. Cardano $ADA, which has been used by few people, has no performance, no users, and even almost no ecological projects.
But it does not affect the top ten market value per year, because the founder of $ADA is one of the earliest bookmakers of Ethereum: Charles Hoskinson
Although Ethereum has risen sharply recently, it has broken through the $4,000 mark.
But the price is not only not a record high, but also almost the same as when Cancun upgraded at the beginning of the year.
After the upgrade of attention hotspots in Cancun in the first half of the year, although the spot ETF issuance was completed, it can be said that it was completely beaten by Solana's meme offensive.
At the end of the year, this wave, with the hot spots of the new encryption policy, once again broke through the $4,000 mark. I don't know if this strong momentum can be maintained in the future:
With its performance in the past 30 days, Ethereum has finally surpassed its old rival SOL in a single-month increase in December, and even surpassed the big brother BTC:
ETH has increased in the past 30 days: +26.96%
BTC has increased in the past 30 days: +17.49%
SOL has increased in the past 30 days: +1.61%
