Ethereum New Addresses Hit Record Levels: What’s Driving The Growth?

15 January 2026 at 05:00

On-chain data shows the Ethereum Network Growth has surged to a new all-time high (ATH), suggesting ETH’s adoption has been accelerating.

Ethereum Network Growth Has Shot Up Recently

In a new post on X, on-chain analytics firm Santiment has discussed about the recent increase in the Ethereum Network Growth. This metric measures the total number of addresses that are coming online on the network for the first time.

A wallet is said to come “online” when it participates in some kind of transaction activity on the blockchain. Thus, the addresses that the Network Growth tracks are the ones that are participating in their first transfer.

When the value of the metric is high, it means that the users are creating a high amount of new addresses on the network. Such a trend can be a sign that adoption of the asset is occurring.

On the other hand, the indicator having a low value can imply that the cryptocurrency isn’t attracting new users as not much wallet generation is taking place on the network.

Now, here is the chart shared by Santiment that shows the trend in the Ethereum Network Growth over the past year:

Ethereum Network Growth

As displayed in the above graph, the Ethereum Network Growth has witnessed a spike recently. Over the past week, address generation has averaged around 327,100 per day, with a particularly large level being observed on Sunday, when 393,600 new addresses popped up.

The Sunday high was a new record for the indicator, meaning that ETH saw an unprecedented amount of single-day address creation. As a result of the surge in the Network Growth, the Total Amount of Holders, an indicator tracking the number of non-empty addresses that exist on the blockchain, has also shot up to a new ATH of 172.97 million.

What’s driving all this adoption? According to the analytics firm, there can be several factors contributing to the trend. First is the Fusaka upgrade that occurred in December, and improved data handling and cut layer-2 fees.

The second is the record stablecoin activity that the Ethereum blockchain saw in late 2025, with the transaction volume reaching $8 trillion in the fourth quarter. “This kind of real financial activity tends to bring in new participants who create wallets to send, receive, or hold stablecoins and other tokens,” explained Santiment.

Lastly, the turn of the year saw growing interest and improvement in sentiment among traders, which would have led to fresh retail traders signing up new wallets.

ETH Price

The past day has been bullish for Ethereum as its price has jumped by more than 5%, recovering back to the $3,340 level.

Solana Price Jumps, But Network Adoption Remains Weak

12 January 2026 at 10:00

On-chain data shows the Network Growth indicator has continued to fall for Solana recently, a sign that adoption of the asset has remained weak.

Solana Network Growth Has Been Declining

According to data from on-chain analytics firm Santiment, SOL’s recent price recovery has come despite a drop in the Network Growth. This metric measures the weekly total number of addresses that are coming online on the blockchain for the first time. A wallet comes “online” on the network when it participates in some kind of transfer activity. Thus, the wallets that the Network Growth is counting are the ones that are making their first transaction on the network.

When the value of the Network Growth is high, it means that a large number of addresses are being created on the blockchain. Such a trend can be a sign that an influx of users is occurring. On the other hand, the indicator being low suggests that there isn’t much new address generation taking place on the network, which can be a potential indication that the chain isn’t attracting fresh investors.

Now, here is the chart shared by Santiment that shows the trend in the Solana Network Growth over the last couple of years:

Solana Network Growth

As displayed in the above graph, the Solana Network Growth has witnessed a drawdown recently, despite the fact that the SOL price has made some recovery since its December low. This suggests that the bullish price action has been unable to bring fresh attention to the cryptocurrency.

Historically, rallies have generally needed the incoming of new investors to be sustainable, as it’s the increased trading activity that provides them with the fuel to go on.

In the chart, Santiment has highlighted the case of a rally where this requirement wasn’t met. The Network Growth was initially at a significant level, but as this price surge from 2025 played out, the metric’s value plummeted. This could be a potential factor behind the rally eventually running out of momentum.

In late 2024, the opposite conditions were present, as the Network Growth shot up alongside the Solana bull run, implying adoption backed the price appreciation. Considering these past cases, it’s possible that the indicator might have to reverse its trajectory if SOL’s recovery has to last.

The latest downward move in the Network Growth is also not the only development SOL is dealing with right now. From the graph, it’s visible that the indicator has gone through a long-term downtrend since its high in November 2024.

Back then, the metric had a value of 30.2 million, but today, the figure has dropped to just 7.3 million. It now remains to be seen whether the long decline in the adoption of Solana will continue or if a turnaround will appear.

SOL Price

Solana recovered back to $144 on Sunday, but the coin has retraced to open the week as its price is back at $139.

Canopy Slashes 800 From Payroll, to Restructure After Revenues Slide

9 February 2023 at 09:17

Canopy Growth Corp. (TSX: WEED) (Nasdaq: CGC) reported slumping revenues on Thursday and signaled a new cost-savings era that includes cutbacks on cultivation and 800 layoffs.

The stock fell more than 8% in early trading on the news to lately sell at $2.52, a big drop from its year high of $9.61.

The Canadian cannabis giant published its financial results for the third quarter ending Dec. 31, 2022.

Net revenue of $101 million in the quarter declined 28% versus the same period in the previous fiscal year. Canopy blamed the drop in revenue on several factors:

  • Increased competition in the Canadian adult-use cannabis market
  • The divestiture of C3 Cannabinoid Compound Company GmbH
  • A decline in the U.S. CBD business
  • Softer performance from Storz & Bickel and This Works.

Canopy acquired the German C3 for C$41 million in 2019 and then sold it in 2021 for C$114 million. C3 reported sales of C$53.8 million in Canopy’s 2020 fiscal year and C$62.3 million in 2021.

Cash Burn

The new restructuring also makes sense for Canopy considering historical cash burn has swelled its net losses 131% over the year to $266.7 million. Cash and short-term investments fell by a whopping $583 million to $789 million at the end of December from $1,372 million at the end of March 2022.

The company attributed this to the impact of cash used in operating activities, the first tranche of the term loan credit agreement repayment of $118 million, as well as cash used for acquisitions and investments, including the acquisition of the Verona, Virginia, manufacturing facility for BioSteel and a premium payment made to obtain an option to acquire Acreage Holdings Inc.’s outstanding debt as part of the October 2022 CUSA announcement.

Gross debt amounted to $1.2  billion on Dec. 31, 2022, an improvement over the debt level of $1.5 billion at the end of  March 2022.

“Canopy must reach profitability to achieve our ambition of long-term North American cannabis market leadership,” CEO David Klein said in a statement.These changes are difficult but necessary to drive our business to profitability and growth.”

Closing Cultivation

Canopy Growth said that it would be transitioning to an “asset-light model” in Canada by exiting cannabis flower cultivation in its Smiths Falls, Ontario, facility, ceasing the sourcing of cannabis flower from the Mirabel, Quebec, facility, and moving to a third-party sourcing model for cannabis beverages, edibles, vapes, and extracts.

The changes are in addition to multiple cost reduction activities planned for the year, including the divestiture of Canopy Growth’s Canadian retail operations, the organizational restructuring of certain corporate functions, and the closure of the Scarborough, Ontario, research facility.

The company intends to close its 1 Hershey Drive facility in Smiths Falls, Ontario, in addition to reducing headcount across the business by approximately 60%, or 800 positions. Of those, 40% are impacted immediately.

Management believes these cost reduction initiatives will reduce the annual cost of goods sold and selling, general, and administrative expenses by a combined $140 million$160 million over the next 12 months, bringing the total cost reduction target to $240 million$310 million inclusive of the reductions announced in April 2022.

Canopy Growth also said it is still committed to remaining dual–listed on the TSX and the Nasdaq as it continues pursuing its U.S. entrance strategy through Canopy USA.

“The right-sizing of our Canadian business is expected to significantly reduce our cash costs,” said CFO Judy Hong. “Canopy is firmly on the path to deliver at least quarterly breakeven adjusted EBITDA in our Canadian cannabis business in fiscal 2024, even at current revenue run-rate.”
