In this period of increased activity, an average of 637,000 ETH addresses have been involved in some coin movement every day. The last time the network saw holders being so lively was back in May of last year when the bull run of the first half of 2021 observed its peak of around $4,300.

Usually, high daily active addresses mean that the investors are interested in trading ETH at the moment. Thus, it’s natural that profit-taking opportunities like the May 2021 peak see huge bursts of activity as a large number of holders move their coins for selling purposes.

While it’s true that such activity can be bearish for the asset’s price in this way, it’s also a fact that any rally requires a large number of traders to be sustainable. Ethereum has been Rallying during the last couple of days while the active addresses have been very high, suggesting that there are many interested buyers in the market right now. This could be a sign that unlike the rally efforts earlier in this bear market, which didn’t see any activity at such levels, the latest price rise may have enough fuel backing it.
