<p>The first quarter of 2024 <a href="https://twitter.com/WuBlockchain/status/1808422649368080447?t=qbpdubLv4cC-aqWsQ69xnw&amp;s=19" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">proved</a> to be particularly lucrative for Ethereum, with its revenue reaching $365 million, marking a remarkable year-on-year growth of 155%. This spectacular rise is mainly due to the boom in innovative sectors such as decentralized finance (DeFi) and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).</p>
<p>Ethereum’s transaction fee revenue reached a record high of $1.17 billion in the first quarter, marking an 80% increase over the previous quarter.</p>

<p>Although surpassed by Ethereum in terms of revenue, Bitcoin maintains its position of strength with $1.302 billion generated through transaction fees.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The introduction of Bitcoin Ordinals has played a crucial role in this performance, leading to a notable increase in transaction fees. Furthermore, the <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/runes-the-new-force-on-bitcoin-ordinals-and-brc-20-dethroned/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Runes</a> technology has contributed significantly, accounting for up to 68% of Bitcoin transactions since the last Halving.</p>
<p>Despite its primary function as a store of value and medium of exchange, Bitcoin proves its ability to generate substantial revenue. This resilience testifies to its growing adoption and persistent importance in the crypto landscape, beyond its status as a benchmark digital asset.</p>
<p>In sum, the future looks promising for these two leading cryptos. With the imminent launch of <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/ethereum-etfs-set-to-secure-15-billion-by-2025/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum ETFs</a> and the continued growth of the Bitcoin ecosystem, analysts foresee significant capital inflows in the coming months.</p>
