Ethereum Sets New Record in Daily Transactions

• Ethereum’s 7-day average hit 1.74M daily transactions.
• July saw a record 46.67M monthly transactions.
• Active addresses approach 2021 peak levels.

Ethereum has achieved a major milestone, setting a new record in daily transactions. On August 5, the network’s 7-day average transaction count reached 1.74 million, surpassing its previous peak of 1.65 million set in 2021. This surge reflects growing usage of Ethereum’s network for decentralized finance (DeFi), NFTs, and other blockchain-based activities.

July Breaks Monthly Transaction Record

The momentum didn’t just stop at daily highs. July 2025 closed with an impressive 46.67 million total transactions — the highest monthly count in Ethereum’s history. This growth signals sustained demand and increased network activity, even amid fluctuating crypto market conditions. Factors like new Layer 2 solutions, reduced transaction fees, and expanded DeFi activity have likely contributed to this surge.

Active Addresses Climb Toward Historic Levels

Alongside transaction growth, active Ethereum addresses have been climbing steadily. On August 5, the number of active addresses hit 683,000, closing in on the all-time high recorded in 2021. This metric reflects the number of unique wallets interacting with the network, highlighting a healthy and expanding user base.

With Ethereum continuing to attract new projects, users, and developers, these record-breaking stats suggest the network’s adoption is stronger than ever. As activity rises, the platform’s scalability upgrades and Layer 2 integrations will be key to maintaining efficiency.
