Ethereum (ETH) has been experiencing an upward trajectory for quite a while now, reaching its highest yearly price point in the week and presenting an impressive 52-week high.

Ethereum’s Price Supported By Latest Developments

The Ethereum’s price surge can be traced back to several factors that have propelled the cryptocurrency’s growth. The asset reached its 52-week high of $2,137 on Thursday, November 9, as seen in the chart below.

One of the factors that has contributed to the crypto asset’s price surge is the number of ETH staked. A rise in ETH staked, which stood at over 28 million, according to data from Beaconscan.

As of August, the number of validators in the Beacon Chain was approximately 786,000, but today that number is currently at 884,000. This indicates confidence in Ethereum’s long-term stability, which can be promising to investors.

In addition, the token’s on-chain volume has also increased significantly over time. Recent data shows that the asset’s volume now sits at approximately 2.62 billion from 1.5 billion as of September. This indicates an over 70% increase since September.

Blackrock’s Spot Ethereum ETF Sparks Increase

The most recent development that has propelled the asset’s price is BlackRock‘s registration of a spot Ethereum Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). Since the firm made known its registration of a Spot Ethereum ETF, there has been quite an improvement encompassing the cryptocurrency.

Blackrock is the world’s largest asset manager with trillions of dollars in assets under management, the firm that has also applied for a Bitcoin spot ETF. The firm applied for a Bitcoin spot ETF in June 2023. However, it is awaiting a decision from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Godspower Owie

My name is Godspower Owie, and I was born and brought up in Edo State, Nigeria. I grew up with my three siblings who have always been my idols and mentors, helping me to grow and understand the way of life.

My parents are literally the backbone of my story. They’ve always supported me in good and bad times and never for once left my side whenever I feel lost in this world. Honestly, having such amazing parents makes you feel safe and secure, and I won’t trade them for anything else in this world.

I was exposed to the cryptocurrency world 3 years ago and got so interested in knowing so much about it. It all started when a friend of mine invested in a crypto asset, which he yielded massive gains from his investments.

When I confronted him about cryptocurrency he explained his journey so far in the field. It was impressive getting to know about his consistency and dedication in the space despite the risks involved, and these are the major reasons why I got so interested in cryptocurrency.

Trust me, I’ve had my share of experience with the ups and downs in the market but I never for once lost the passion to grow in the field. This is because I believe growth leads to excellence and that’s my goal in the field. And today, I am an employee of Bitcoinnist and NewsBTC news outlets.

My Bosses and co-workers are the best kinds of people I have ever worked with, in and outside the crypto landscape. I intend to give my all working alongside my amazing colleagues for the growth of these companies.

Sometimes I like to picture myself as an explorer, this is because I like visiting new places, I like learning new things (useful things to be precise), I like meeting new people - people who make an impact in my life no matter how little it is.

One of the things I love and enjoy doing the most is football. It will remain my favorite outdoor activity, probably because I'm so good at it. I am also very good at singing, dancing, acting, fashion and others.

I cherish my time, work, family, and loved ones. I mean, those are probably the most important things in anyone's life. I don't chase illusions, I chase dreams.

I know there is still a lot about myself that I need to figure out as I strive to become successful in life. I’m certain I will get there because I know I am not a quitter, and I will give my all till the very end to see myself at the top.

I aspire to be a boss someday, having people work under me just as I’ve worked under great people. This is one of my biggest dreams professionally, and one I do not take lightly. Everyone knows the road ahead is not as easy as it looks, but with God Almighty, my family, and shared passion friends, there is no stopping me.
