随着市场活动的停滞，以太坊网络费降至5年低点

以太坊网络上的交易成本已在五年来下降到最低水平，因为区块链上的活动量不断

Transaction costs on the Ethereum network have dropped to the lowest level in five years as the amount of activity on the blockchain is in a lull, according to the onchain analytics platform Santiment.

根据OnChain Analytics平台的说法，由于区块链的活动量平静，以太坊网络上的交易成本已降至五年来的最低水平。

Ethereum network fees are now around $0.168 per transaction and the reduction in fees coincides with fewer people sending Ether (ETH) and interacting with smart contracts, Santiment marketing director Brian Quinlivan said in an April 17 blog post.

Santiment Marketing总监Brian Quinlivan在4月17日的博客帖子中说，现在每笔交易的以太坊网络费用约为0.168美元，而降低费用恰好与派遣以太（ETH）的人更少并与智能合约互动。

“When many people are using Ethereum, users bid higher fees to get their transactions confirmed faster This drives the average costs up,” Quinlivan said.

昆利文说：“当许多人使用以太坊时，用户竞标更高的费用以获得交易的速度更快地驱动了平均成本。”

“When fewer people are transacting, like we see now, users don’t need to bid much. As a result, the average fee drops. It’s essentially a supply and demand system.”

“当人类的交易较少时，就像我们现在看到的那样，用户不需要竞标太多。因此，平均费用下降了。这本质上是供求系统。”

Quinlivan said that, from a trading perspective, low fees can preclude a price rebound, Still, he added that traders appear to be patiently waiting for the global economic uncertainty to pass before scaling up their usual frequency of Ether and altcoin transactions.

昆利文说，从交易的角度来看，低费用可以排除价格反弹，但他补充说，交易者似乎正在耐心等待全球经济不确定性通过，然后再扩大其通常的以太币和替代币交易的频率。

Traditional and crypto markets tanked after US President Trump’s sweeping tariffs were announced on April 2. Many assets haven’t recovered to the same level as before their unveiling, despite tariff exemptions and a 90-day pause for most countries.

在4月2日宣布了美国总统特朗普的大量关税之后，传统和加密货币市场都陷入了困境。尽管有税收免税和90天的停顿，但许多资产尚未恢复到其揭幕前的同一水平。

ETH has fallen over 12.5% in the past 14 days and has traded flat over the past 24 hours, hovering just under $1,600, according to CoinGecko.

根据Coingecko的数据，ETH在过去的14天中下跌超过12.5％，在过去的24小时内交易，徘徊在1,600美元以下。

“We can visibly see the increased sensitivity toward Ethereum discussions and tariff/economy news as prices have really threatened long-time support levels,” Quinlivan said.

昆利文说：“由于价格确实威胁到长期支持水平，我们可以明显地看到对以太坊讨论的敏感性和关税/经济新闻的敏感性提高。”

“The more the retail community leans away from an asset, especially one with still thriving development, the higher the likelihood of an eventual surprise rebound with little resistance.”

“零售社区越偏离资产，尤其是那些仍在发展的资产，零售社区的发展越高，最终产生惊喜反弹的可能性就越大。”

Pectra upgrade on the way

pectra在路上升级

After delays due to configuration issues and an unknown attacker causing headaches during the Holesky and Sepolia testnet activations, the Pectra upgrade for the Ethereum network is now scheduled to go live on the mainnet on May 7.

由于配置问题和未知攻击者引起的延迟，在Holesky和Sepolia testnet激活期间引起了头痛，现在计划于5月7日在Mainnet上直播Ethereum Network的Pectra升级。

Phase one is expected to double the layer-2 blob capacity from three to six, reduce transaction fees and network congestion and allow fees to be paid in stablecoins like USDC (USDC) and DAI (DAI).

预计第一阶段将使第二层斑点容量从三倍到六倍增加一倍，减少交易费用和网络拥塞，并允许在诸如USDC（USDC）和DAI（DAI）等稳定币中支付费用。

The maximum staking limit will also be increased from 32 ETH to 2,048 ETH.

最大放电限制也将从32 ETH增加到2,048 ETH。

The second phase of Pectra is expected in late 2025 or early 2026 and will introduce a new data structure to enhance data storage efficiency and a system that improves scalability by enabling nodes to verify transaction data without storing the entire data set.

Pectra的第二阶段预计将在2025年末或2026年初，将引入新的数据结构，以提高数据存储效率和一个系统，该系统通过使节点能够验证交易数据而不存储整个数据集来提高可扩展性。

The Pectra fork follows the network’s Dencun upgrade in March 2024, which slashed transaction fees for layer-2 networks and improved the economics of Ethereum rollups.

Pectra叉在2024年3月遵循该网络的Dencun升级，该升级削减了第2层网络的交易费用，并改善了以太坊汇总的经济性。
