Quick Take
Bitcoin’s one-day transaction fees have taken an upward leap, surpassing Ethereum’s for the first time since November. On Dec. 14, Bitcoin marked a significant increase with $14.7 million in one-day fees, a notable rise from its seven-day average of $7.3 million.
Meanwhile, Ethereum, despite trailing behind Bitcoin, with one-day fees at around $12.6 million, has maintained a stronger foothold over seven days with an average of $11.1 million.
This comparative surge in Bitcoin fees presents a shift in the transaction cost dynamics between the two dominant digital assets.
While this may indicate a heightened demand for Bitcoin transactions, it also emphasizes Ethereum’s relatively consistent transaction cost, signifying its robust network utilization. The broader implications of this evolution warrant keen observation as these variations could potentially influence transaction behaviors on both networks.
