Ethereum price has cranked to a five-month high today. Furthermore, ETH issuance is the most deflationary since the Merge transitioned the protocol to proof-of-stake
Ethereum prices have reached their highest levels since mid-September. The Hong Kong crypto hub narrative has buoyed markets, and Ethereum is riding the wave.
The emission of ether-eum has also fallen to its most deflationary level since amalgamation in mid-September.
The movement flow of eth is 120.49 million. It's down 23,651 eth or about $40 million since the merger, according to the ultrasound.Money tracker
The increase in supply is currently -0.7% per year since over 4100 EPF are burned each day. This week, the deflation rate was the quickest since amalgamation. But gasoline prices went up this week, which led to higher combustion rates.
#Ethereum#deflation is accelerating by the day. It has a very positive effect on the dynamics of supply and demand, and should send the price much higher as demand grows. I think that's going to happen in the very near future. pic.twitter.com/dnHVKBabuf

Institutions Piling into Ethereum
Staking continues to be a strong driver of momentum, despite SEC's war on cryptography and attack on staking services.
The ultrasound came back.16.6 million euros are currently attached to the channel of tags. At present prices, this represents approximately $28 billion. Moreover, this represents 13.8% of total supply, which is now decreasing at its fastest pace.
In March, the Shanghai update will enable the phased release of staked ETH. Furthermore, this has been considered bullish for Ethereum as it will enable more flexible staking options like liquid staking for investors.
The Ethereum supply economy and milestone stories are not the only things driving up prices. According to the "lookonchain", a chain detective, institutions have also piled up on assets in the last week.
He noted that a number of funds and institutions have contributed almost $1.6 billion to the cryptography market since February 10. It was bullish for both the ether and the ether, like the two hit new heights in 2023 today.
