Ethereum's network saw all-time highs in users, transactions, and throughput in Q1 2026, with an 8.1% increase in ETH holder addresses from the previous quarter. This growth occurred even as Ethereum's price fell about 20% to below $1,700 and its market capitalization dropped 30.3% to $290 billion. The ecosystem's total value locked also declined by 11%, and trading volumes and fees decreased. Despite these financial declines, Ethereum remains the leading blockchain for tokenized assets and on-chain finance, generating $2 billion in fees and maintaining dominance in lending markets with platforms like Aave. Key upgrades and institutional interest continue to support its ecosystem.
