Data-driven conclusions

The crypto winter continues into the winter according to all indicators of the Ethereum blockchain in December 2022 – such important indicators as the number of transactions and the cost of gas are declining.

The statistics are slightly improved by single records associated with mints of new NFT collections, such as December 9, for example.

At the same time, the creation of new tokens and active wallets slightly increased, but as part of the general trend, the decline continues and the indicators are still very low.
