<h4><strong>In the <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/bitcoin-and-crypto-guide/checking-the-health-of-our-holdings-part-1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first part</a> of this article, we talked about Bitcoin. Now, we’ll talk about how <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=ethereum" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ethereum</a> is doing.&nbsp;</strong></h4> 
<p>Ethereum (ETH), fresh off its label as the least-loved digital asset of our holdings in 2023, continues on a negative streak. Reaching $4.8 million in sales by large entities over the past week. Its unfavorable rating is very much intact, clocking $117 million of outflows on the year.</p>

<h5><strong>Ethereum’s Performance</strong></h5> 
<p>Ethereum’s performance has worsened since its Shanghai upgrade. Market value, daily transactions, active addresses, and DeFi value have all dropped. The market cap is down 17% to $190 billion. Also, daily transactions are down 14% to 860,000, active addresses are down 19% to 351,000, and DeFi value is down 30% to $21 billion. Ethereum-based NFTs lost all value, and DEX volumes dropped 70% to $446 million. Here is a report from Coingecko about ETH Liquid Staking 2023.</p>

 <p>By Aug 2023, LSD protocols accounted for 43.7% of the total 26.4M ETH staked. Post-Shapella, LSD staking surged, causing long entry queues while exit queues remained minimal.</p> 
 <p>Here are the top 5 highlights <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/1f9f5.png" alt="🧵" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;"> <a href="https://t.co/Bbvz5nA4gy">pic.twitter.com/Bbvz5nA4gy</a></p>

<p>All this because of Ethereum’s roll-ups: Three major roll-ups launched this year. Also, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base. They have attracted activity onto Ethereum Layer 2s:</p> 
<ul> 
 <li>Daily active validators have&nbsp;<strong>increased 46%</strong>&nbsp;from 561,000 in April to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.beaconcha.in/charts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">818,000</a>&nbsp;today.</li> 
 <li>Staked ETH (staking ETH is required to activate a new validator) has&nbsp;<strong>grown 44%</strong>&nbsp;from 18 million in April to 26 million today.</li> 
</ul> 
<p>Also, the Ether-to-Bitcoin ratio dropped to a 14-month low of nearly 0.0602 last week as large token holders, including Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, moved coins to crypto exchanges, possibly as a prelude to selling.</p>

<h5><strong>On-Chain Developments</strong></h5> 
<p>Last week<span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index="1">, </span>Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin sent 300 ETH (worth about $493,000) to the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken. It spurred speculation among crypto watchers given Buterin’s stature for Ethereum.</p>
