Slowing Network Activity Despite Ethereum's Price Growth: Glassnode Insights

Crypto analytics service provider Glassnode has highlighted a lack of correlation between Ethereum's recent price growth and its on-chain activity. Despite lower transaction fees, network activity has slowed, with gas prices rising by just 28% compared to 78% during the Shanghai upgrade event in April.

However, Ethereum remains the largest smart contract hub in terms of overall liquidity, and analysts remain bullish on the cryptocurrency. The Ethereum developer community is also introducing initiatives to improve the protocol's usability and security, such as the new token standard ERC-7265.

  • Citigroup reviews historical patterns before and after the first rate cut in a cycle: US stocks and bonds both rise, gold strengthens first and then flattens

     according to Citigroup research, historical data shows that both US stocks and bonds have positive returns around the first interest rate cut. The median increase in stocks in the 50 days after the rate cut is around 5%, but there is downside risk in a hard landing scenario. Bonds also benefit from expectations and actual rate cuts, with yields typically reaching a low point around the first rate cut. The performance of the US dollar index shows a "weak first, then flat" pattern, usually weakening before a rate cut, but entering a range-bound pattern after the cut. Precious metals like gold also rise before the implementation of loose policies, but tend to perform flat after an actual rate cut, showing more of a range trading pattern. Citigroup analysts stated that these historical patterns were largely confirmed in 2024, but bond prices peaked around the first rate cut. At that time, the market priced in the rate cut aggressively, while the current cycle has a relatively mild pricing, easing concerns about the outlook for bonds.
