ETH Fees Plummet 99%, ETF Inflows Surge Amid Bullish Outlook

Ethereum's median mainnet transaction fees have plummeted by nearly 99% since January 2024, dropping from above $2 to under $0.02 by March 2026. This significant reduction in costs has improved accessibility for users and decentralized finance activities.

Meanwhile, U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs have attracted $244.9 million in weekly inflows, marking five consecutive weeks of positive institutional demand and pushing cumulative inflows to around $11.46 billion.

Crypto analyst Patel notes a technical pattern suggesting Ethereum could face resistance near $4,000 but has a long-term target range of $10,000 to $16,000 contingent on continued technical strength and higher price levels.
