Ethereum has set new records for onchain transactions, with the highest single-day count recorded on December 29, 2025, at 2.23 million transfers. This surge continued into the new year, with December 31 and 30, 2025, and January 2, 2026, also seeing near-record transaction levels. These figures surpass the previous peak from January 14, 2024, indicating sustained high activity on the network. Despite Ethereum's price being 1.5% lower than the previous month, it has shown a 5.5% gain year-to-date in 2026. The consistent high transaction volumes reflect ongoing robust usage across decentralized finance, stablecoin transfers, and smart contract activities, setting a strong precedent for Ethereum's network activity as the year progresses.
