As the <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/jesse-powells-response-to-sec-lawsuit-decels-and-a-masochist/" data-wpel-link="internal">crypto </a><a href="https://finance.coin-turk.com/" data-wpel-link="exclude">market</a> experiences one of its worst weeks of 2024, Bitcoin and Ethereum transaction fees have plummeted to their lowest levels in months. On June 23, the average Bitcoin transaction fee reached $1.93 per transaction, marking the lowest level since October 2023. The low fees on the Bitcoin network indicate lower network activity and less competition.

On the other hand, transaction fees in the Ethereum ecosystem have also reached a new low, with transaction prices dropping to 1 gwei, the lowest level in recent years.

The low transaction fee on Ethereum is attributed to activities moving from Ethereum’s main layer to the Layer-2 network following the Dencun upgrade in March. Since the Dencun upgrade, average gas prices on Ethereum have dropped by approximately 92%. According to a report by Layer2 Insider, Layer-2 networks earned $950,000 last week.

Bitcoin’s price fell below the $63,000 price support, while several altcoins experienced double-digit losses. Over the past six months, the crypto market has seen significant gains as leading cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and several altcoins reached new all-time highs.
