This development follows a significant market downturn caused by the collapse of major crypto exchange FTX. The bankruptcy has rippled through the crypto ecosystem, toppling over multiple other companies. The drop in the value of Bitcoin is likely at least partly responsible for the lower value of the network's transaction volume.

The recent downturn was a major one, with new data indicating that the seven-day average of the number of Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) addresses in a loss just reached an all-time high of 46,305,768. Meanwhile, most (51.87%) Bitcoin addresses are now in loss for the first time since March 2020
