In the past hour and a half, the second largest crypto gained 4.30 percent and rose to the $3,439 level. Prior to that, it increased from $3,236 to the $3,297 price mark.
The current level was lost by Ethereum on September 10 as it was declining from the $3,900 area.
Ethereum is gradually getting deflationary as after the London hard fork that occurred in early August, the mechanism of burning the ETH fees has been enabled.
As reported by U.Today, on Friday, approximately $35 million of ETH was burned as the number of active addresses on the network had reached an all-time high – 6.2 million of wallets holding 0.01-1 ETH year-to-date.
