Gone for Good: Ethereum’s Lost Supply 👻🔥
– Over 913,000 ETH (~$3.43B) permanently lost to user errors and smart contract failures
– Around $1.9B stuck forever due to the 2017 Parity multisig exploit
– More than 5% of all ETH ever issued has been destroyed — thanks to EIP-1559 and other burn mechanisms
Ethereum’s supply isn’t just shrinking — it’s haunted by irreversible losses.
