📈 BREAKING: Ethereum's new wallet growth has reached new all-time high levels. Over the past week, crypto's #2 market cap has seen an average of 327.1K new $ETH wallets created per day, including a 393.6K day Sunday (the highest ever).

📊 There can be several reasons attributed to the surging level of new wallets created currently:

📌 A major protocol upgrade (Fusaka) made using Ethereum cheaper and easier: In early December 2025, Ethereum deployed the Fusaka upgrade, which improved how data is handled on the chain and cut the cost of posting information from Layer-2 networks back to Ethereum. This reduced fees and made interacting with apps and rollups smoother, encouraging many new users to open wallets and start using the network.

📌 Record stablecoin activity showed real utility on the network: In late 2025, the total volume of stablecoin transfers on Ethereum hit an all-time high (about $8T in Q4), showing that the network was being actively used for payments and settlements. This kind of real financial activity tends to bring in new participants who create wallets to send, receive, or hold stablecoins and other tokens.

📌 Growing interest from fresh market participants in late 2025: Starting in December and into January, on-chain data and social trends indicated that new users were entering the Ethereum ecosystem even though the price has moved sideways. There appears to be stronger adoption interest, and people are signing up with new wallets to explore DeFi, NFT's, games, and other apps.

📌 Seasonal and sentiment shifts likely boosted onboarding: Around the turn of the year, overall sentiment in crypto tends to improve as investors and developers reset their strategies for the new year. On-chain indicators like holder sentiment shifted from negative to neutral/positive in mid-December, which often coincides with more retail users signing up and creating addresses.
