Ethereum weekly engagement reached 13.2M addresses, despite a 19.34% drop from the previous week.
Active multi-chain users declined slightly by 2.96% but remain significantly higher than 2023 levels.
The Layer 2 multiplier fell to 5.04x, marking a 24.83% weekly drop after months of sustained growth.
Ethereum's on-chain environment is experiencing a dramatic boost in weekly activity, even with intervals of slight price and sentiment volatility. Data shows a consistent increase in distinct addresses interacting with one or more chains within the Ethereum network.

This trend, spanning 2022 through mid-2025, has a steady long-term incline in weekly user activity. More recent measurements indicate a total of 13,238,130 active addresses, but this is down by 19.34% from the previous week. However, the broader view of the chart indicates a precipitous increase in user activity from as early as 2024 with most active periods reported in Q2 2025.
Rising Multi-Chain Activity Despite Short-Term Decline
Active addresses spanning multiple chains in Ethereum also decreased, declining by 2.96% to 736,453 users. This deterioration is, however, the result of a longer period of advancement since mid-2023. The level of engagement overall, as well as multi-chain participation, has continued to grow. Though the weekly decrease still occurred not long ago, this indicator was much higher than during other quarters.
The statistics validate that the users are still spreading their interactions to Layer 2 and other Ethereum-compatible chains. This goes in line with the enduring positive trends in ecosystem participation, despite price instability.
Layer 2 Usage Experiences a Temporary Pullback
Layer 2 engagement, a key component of the Ethereum ecosystem, experienced a sharper short-term decline. The Layer 2 multiplier fell to 5.04x, down 24.83% from the previous week. This metric tracks the volume of interactions occurring on Layer 2 relative to the base layer. While this suggests a cooldown in Layer 2 usage during the week, it follows a sustained period of exponential growth.
Previous months showed rising dependency on Layer 2 networks as user demand pushed for lower fees and faster transactions. Despite the temporary pullback, recent activity still exceeds average usage observed throughout 2023.
Price Holds as Engagement Peaks
At the time of reporting, Ethereum trades at $2,459.46 with a marginal 0.2% price dip over the past 24 hours. The current support level sits at $2,402.46, while immediate resistance remains at $2,465.80.
Despite subdued price action, user activity continues climbing. This pattern separates hype from actual usage trends within the network. Weekly data confirms higher address counts than at any time in the past three years, particularly during Q2 2025. Engagement has grown substantially over time, offering a quantifiable snapshot of Ethereum’s evolving ecosystem, based strictly on address-level interactions.
