Ethereum's fee burns don't guarantee ETH price floor, says Vitalik Buterin.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin explained that burning transaction fees does not establish a firm valuation floor for Ether (ETH) because most fees burned from 2021 to 2023 originated from crypto-related activities. If ETH’s price drops sharply, the users and applications generating those fees may struggle to pay them, weakening fee demand tied to the crypto market. Buterin highlighted that growth in real-world asset (RWA) transactions offers Ethereum a stronger external backing. He emphasized that the source of transaction demand matters more than the amount of fees burned, contrasting typical RWA activity with a one-day $180 million fee burn from a digital monkey sale, which is unlikely to be matched by mature RWA activity.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin's comments on Ether fee burns come as 25 of 50 major cryptocurrencies on Pluang rose and 24 fell today. For readers following the crypto market, here is Pluang's snapshot as of Nov 09, 2026 22:12 WIB: AVAX gained 9.12% to Rp161.486 with a typical hold time of 88 days and a 67% sell order activity, EOS rose 8.13% to Rp12.649 with a hold time of 87 days, and BAT increased 5.62% to Rp2.329 with a 79% buy order activity and a 94-day hold time.
