Coin Metrics: After Fusaka upgrade, stablecoin "dust" transactions on Ethereum increased by 2-3 times

ETH2,08%

ChainCatcher News reports that, according to Cointelegraph, Coin Metrics has noted that after Ethereum completes the Fusaka upgrade in December 2025, network fees will significantly decrease, making on-chain operations more convenient. Currently, Ethereum’s daily transaction volume has exceeded 2 million transactions, and the number of active addresses has increased by 60% compared to previous average levels.

Coin Metrics pointed out that low Gas fees have led to a large number of “Dusting attacks”: such “dust transactions” involving stablecoins (USDC and USDT) currently account for about 11% of total Ethereum transactions and 26% of daily active addresses. Before the upgrade, “dust transactions” only made up 3%-5% of transaction volume, and after the upgrade, this proportion increased by 2-3 times. “Dusting attacks” refer to hackers sending small amounts of tokens to random addresses to track wallets or cause network chaos.

Vitalik's "Shelter Technology" Declaration: How Does Ethereum Incorporate Censorship Resistance into the Protocol?

Written by: imToken If one day the core development team of Ethereum were to collectively "disappear," or if a sovereign country demanded the censorship of certain transactions, could Ethereum still remain open? These questions sound like extreme hypotheticals, but they are becoming increasingly relevant reference points in the design of the Ethereum protocol. In early March, Vitalik Buterin proposed a new statement, explicitly saying that the Ethereum community should see itself as part of the "sanctuary technologies" ecosystem: these free open-source technologies enable people to live, work, communicate, manage risks, and build wealth, while collaborating toward common goals and maximizing resistance to external pressures. This statement appears to be an abstract upgrade of values, but when viewed in the context of Ethereum's recent protocol evolution, it actually corresponds to very specific
