Ethereum has seen booming network utility throughout 2020. The blockchain has seen heightened stablecoin issuance and a growing influx of finds into various ETH-based DeFi initiatives.<\/p>\n

The utility growth Ethereum<\/a> has seen over the past five months has led ETH to see booming demand, as more investors begin recognizing its growing potential.<\/p>\n

This has also coincided with a massive rise in the cryptocurrency\u2019s hash rate \u2013 which has climbed by just under 27 percent since the start of the year.<\/p>\n

Ethereum\u2019s hash rate sees steady growth in 2020<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

From a price perspective, Ethereum<\/a> has done little to turn heads or garner notoriety throughout the past year.<\/p>\n

Despite being able to post a parabolic rally to $290 in February, this rise was short-lived and happened to be followed by an intense decline that ultimately led it to lows in the sub-$100 region.<\/p>\n

This has done little to hamper its network growth, however, which has been booming over the past several months.<\/p>\n

According to data<\/a> from analytics platform Glassnode<\/a>, ETH\u2019s hash rate has risen by just under 27 percent throughout the year, leading it to its highest levels seen in over seven months.<\/p>\n

\u201cEthereum's hash rate has increased by 26.8% since the beginning of the year and is at the highest level it's been in over 7 months.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019s important to keep in mind that the cryptocurrency\u2019s current hash rate of 166 tera-hashes per second is still down significantly from its all-time highs of 250 th\/s that were set in August of 2018.<\/p>\n

Mounting ETH utility the primary suspect behind boom in fundamental strength<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As CryptoSlate reported<\/a> in late-May, analysts do attribute Ethereum\u2019s increasing utility as the primary suspect driving its fundamental strength, also influencing investor demand for the cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

Spencer Noon \u2013 the head of crypto investments at DTC Capital \u2013 explained<\/a> that there is a strong connection between the blockchain\u2019s utility and demand for ETH.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a growing link between Ethereum utility and ETH demand. ETH miners have captured $3.5M in fees over the past 30 days. Below we can see that the demand for blockspace is mostly driven by stablecoins and DeFi, which together account for >63% of fees paid.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That being said, it is important for investors to consider the implications that mounting utility and fundamental strength may ultimately have on Ethereum\u2019s price action.<\/p>\n

Based on Noon\u2019s assessment, it does appear that both of these factors bode well for ETH\u2019s mid-term outlook.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
