The supply of Ethereum (ETH) has continuously increased since mid-April, and it appears the Dencun upgrade<\/a> in March may have been the cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethereum\u2019s Supply Increases Continuously for 73 Days<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ethereum data dashboard ultrasound.money indicates that the supply of Ether has progressively increased, with an increase of over 112,000 ETH to the overall supply since April 14.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Implementing the Dencun enhancement on March 13 is responsible for a significant portion of this inflationary activity. This upgrade introduced nine Ethereum improvement proposals <\/a>(EIPs), including EIP-4844, the primary cause of the escalation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EIP-4844 introduced “blobs,” a mechanism that enables the temporary storage of transaction data separate from block data on Ethereum layer-2 networks, thereby reducing the fees paid for block data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, Dencun implemented proto-dank sharding\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, achieving more effective data availability for block space on the Ethereum mainnet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although this resulted in a substantial decrease in the cost of executing transactions on Ethereum layer-2 networks, including Optimism and Abritrum, the total quantity of ETH burned on the mainnet has decreased substantially.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The total supply of ETH has still decreased substantially since the Merge, although the ETH supply has flipped inflationary in recent months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since September 2022, over 1.5 billion ETH have been destroyed, while 1.36 billion ETH have been added, resulting in a total supply reduction of 345,000 ETH. This reduction is equivalent to just over $1.1 billion at current prices as Ethereum transitioned to a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
