Figure 3: Ethereum’s Network Value to Transaction Signal

The NVT Signal (NVTS) is a modified version of the original NVT Ratio, using a 90-day moving average for transaction volume, instead of the raw daily transaction volume, making it function better as a leading indicator. NVTS in Figure 3 indicates that ETH’s ratio reached the same level as the prior bear market around June 2018. At that time, ETH was valued at $73.9B which is currently 45% of today’s value while the daily number of transactions on the number today is 1.5x as much as the last crypto winter. In other words, ETH value increased significantly more than its fundamentals.
