On the other hand, Glassnode data also shows that the amount of active ETH supply between 1 year and 2 years on an average one-day average has reached more than 41,090,025 coins, marking a new all-time high (ATH).

According to a crypto.news report on May 7, the number of ETH deposits on centralized exchanges (CEXs) has seen a sudden spike, putting short-selling pressure on the platforms.

Furthermore, despite the asset’s price drop, fees on the Ethereum blockchain rose to a one-year high of around 260 gwei on May 5. available By ultra-sonic money, fees on the Ethereum network are down 63% from the local high and are at 95 gwei at the time of writing.
