Correlation: ETH Price And New Ethereum Addresses

First things first, as described by TokenAnalyst, the numbers of new addresses represent the full historical number of unique addresses that appeared for the first time in a transaction, including the total number of addresses on the network every single day throughout its history.
As evident on the chart, the new addresses peaked in December and January in 2018, when ETH’s price reached its current all-time high value of around $1,400. After that, the number of addresses started to decline and so did the price.
However, it’s also important to note that at the beginning of the bear market in 2018 the price was declining at a rate much quicker than that of the addresses.
While the correlation between the price and the number of addresses is much more evident during the peak, there is a slight disbalance in 2019 and the movements aren’t so identical.
Bitcoin Sees a Similar Pattern
Interestingly enough, similarities of the kind can also be found with Bitcoin.
According to the chart, the number of unique bitcoin addresses used on Bitcoin’s blockchain peaked in December 2017. This is exactly when the BTC price hit its all-time high of around $20,000.
As it is the case with Ethereum, this same number began declining as the market turned and the prices started to tumble.
