Active Addresses
In the number of active addresses, there were 417,394 active logins to the ETH network between Februar 19 and Februar 26, 2025 this week. During this period, Ethereum fell from $2,738 to $2,516. In the region marked on the chart, where the price and the number of active addresses intersect, Ethereum purchases are gradually decreasing. When we follow the 7-day simple moving average, it is observed that the price follows a downward trend on the dates when this average cuts the price. This situation indicates that the Ethereum price is experiencing entries at $ 2,738 levels
Active Sending Addresses
With the Black Line (price line) in active shipping addresses, there was a significant drop in active shipping addresses towards Februar 21. On the day when the price hit its lowest point, active shipping addresses fell as low as 287,111 , indicating that buyers sold their positions as Ethereum stayed at 2,661 for a while. As a result, it is seen that price drops cause an acceleration in sending addresses.
Active Receiving Addresses
In the active buyer addresses, it appears that on Februar 23rd, Februar 23rd, when the price was at 2,738, the number of buyers approached the highest levels of 243,576, and the longest level of buying was at the level where investors went to increase their Ethereum positions. This may indicate the costing levels of buyers before the price rises.
Total Value Staked
On Februar 19, ETH price was 2,716 while Total Value Staked Ratio was 33,853. As of Februar 25, ETH price was down to 2,492 while Total Value Staked Ratio was 33,875. Compared to last week, ETH price declined by 8.25% while Total Value Staked Ratio increased by 0.065%.
Staking Inflows
On Februar 19, ETH price was 2,716 while Staking Inflow Ratio was 28,397. As of Februar 25, the ETH price was down to 2,492 while the Staking Inflow Ratio was 50,045. Compared to last week, ETH price decreased by 8.25% and Staking Inflow Ratio increased by 76.2%.
Derivatives
Open Interest
Ethereum open interest started at $14.8 billion on Februar 19. On Februar 20, it rose, reaching $15.2 billion. However, there was some decline on Februar 21 and open interest fell to $14.7 billion. As of Februar 22, open interest started to rise again and peaked on Februar 23, reaching over $16 billion. On Februar 24, the Bybit hack triggered a sharp decline and open interest declined rapidly, falling significantly on Februar 25.
As of Februar 26, open interest hit a low of 2.48K. Overall, there is a strong correlation between open interest and price during the week, with a sharp decline especially since Februar 24. These movements indicate that sudden changes in market dynamics and high volatility are effective.
Funding Rate
Ethereum’s funding ratios are generally positive, indicating that long positions are predominant. While the funding rate and price fluctuated between Februar 19 and 23, as of Februar 24, the funding rate declined along with the price drop. This suggests that short positions are increasing and the market is facing selling pressure.
Although the funding rate rose again on Februar 25-26, the price remained at low levels. This suggests that investors see the decline as a buying opportunity, although over-leveraged positions may increase liquidation risk.
Long & Short Liquidations
ETH price, which has been in a narrow band for a long time, fell sharply to 2,368 after the Bybit wallet hack. With this price movement, a very high level of long and short positions were liquidated. In total, 277 million dollars of long positions and 240 million dollars of short positions were liquidated.

In the following days, the value, which followed an opposite course with the Ethereum price movement, reached 0.000412149960911027 on Februar 21 and then experienced some retracement. As of Februar 22, Fees per Transaction (Mean) value, which started to rise due to the high volatility seen in Ethereum price, closed at 0.000575701359538742 on Februar 25, the last day of the weekly period.
Similarly, when the Ethereum Fees (Total) data between Februar 19 and Februar 25 were analyzed, it was seen that this value was at 283.05282519929506 on Februar 19, the first day of the week. In the following days, the value, which followed an opposite course with the Ethereum price movement, reached 296.9555966991278 on Februar 21 and then experienced some retracement. As of Februar 22, Fees (Total) value, which started to rise due to the high volatility seen in Ethereum price, closed at 804.6468519014691 on Februar 25, the last day of the weekly period.
Block Mined
Between Februar 19 and 25, when we examine the Ethereum Blocks Mined table, the number of blocks produced increased throughout the week. While 7,157 blocks were produced on Februar 19, this number reached 7,161 blocks on Februar 25. There was a negative correlation between Blocks Mined and Ethereum price during the week.
Block
Between Februar 19 and Februar 25, when we examine the Ethereum Block Size table, after the decrease in block size towards the middle of the week, it increased towards the end of the week. From 83,213 bytes on Februar 19, the block size reached 95,200 bytes on Februar 25. There was a negative correlation between Block Size and Ethereum price during the week.
Block Interval
Between Februar 19 and Februar 25, when we examine the Ethereum Block Interval table, there was a decrease in the time between blocks throughout the week. On Februar 19, the time between blocks was 12.07 seconds, which decreased to 12.06 seconds on Februar 25. There was a positive correlation between Block Interval and Ethereum price during the week.
Transaction
showing 8,944,880 transactions. The highest number of transactions was 1,397,681 on Februar 25, while Februar 22 was the weekend day with the lowest number of transactions of the week at 1,119,166. While there was not much change in the number of transactions compared to last week, the decline in the price indicates that this week’s transactions were on the sell side. Nevertheless, if it is necessary to comment only on the “number of transactions”, there does not seem to be an unusual situation.
Tokens Transferred
Between Februar 12-18, 9,730,277 units of Ethereum were transferred, while between Februar 19-25, the number of Ethereum transferred increased to 17,551,792, an 80.04% increase compared to the previous week. On Februar 25, 4,085,240 Ethereum was transferred, the most Ethereum transferred in one day since Februar 3. Considering the effects on the price and the outflows on the ETF side, we may be seeing the reflections of institutional investors’ selling pressure on oncahine.
While there was a slight increase in the number of transactions this week compared to last week, the total amount of Ethereum transferred was much higher, indicating that the average transfer size, that is, the amount of Ethereum per transaction, increased. This shows that investors are making volatile movements on the market, and when we look at the size of the amounts according to the transacitons and their impact on the price, it is understood that we are seeing the effect of selling waves from institutional investors.
Estimated Leverage Ratio
Early in the 7-day period, the metric rose, and towards the end, it started to fall. This had a negative impact on the Ethereum price, causing a drop of about 16%. ELR (Estimated Leverage Ratio), which had a value of 0.584 at the beginning of the process, is currently at 0.596. Its highest level was 0.625 in the middle of the process. A higher ELR means that participants are willing to assume more risk and usually indicates bullish conditions or expectations. It should be noted that these rises can also be caused by a decrease in reserves. When we look at Ethereum reserves, there were 18.98 million reserves at the beginning of the process and continued to decrease towards the end of the process. Today, the number of reserves of approximately 18.70 million is noteworthy. At the same time, Ethereum’s Open Interest has fallen from $ 24.31 billion to $ 21.88 billion in the last few days, revealing the reason for the metric’s decline. This coincides with a corresponding drop in the asset’s price from $2,800 to $2,450. This decline in open interest, as well as the drop in leverage, suggests that investors are becoming more pessimistic about Ethereum’s price movements. As a result, despite falling reserves, the ELR metric is also falling, making it difficult to rise. If the price breaks the $3000 threshold, leveraged trades may increase as participants regain confidence
