After making a daily high of $36,006, Bitcoin underwent a correction and is trading at $34,100. BTC is trying to sustain the crucial support of $33,500. However, if BTC is unable to hold this support, then the next targets are the $32,000 and $31,000 regions. Meanwhile, the second-largest cryptocurrency, Ethereum, is trading close to $2,228.

Let’s find out some interesting crypto news in detail for today.

1- Ethereum Active Addresses Surpass Bitcoin’s Amid EIP-1559 Upgrade

The second-largest cryptocurrency, Ethereum, reached a major milestone by surpassing Bitcoin in terms of the total number of daily active addresses. Moreover, the active addresses show the total number of senders and receivers for a particular token. As per the tweet by Santiment, Ethereum had reached 757,859 active addresses for the first time in comparison to Bitcoin, which had 708,705, last week.

The Ethereum platform is very flexible and has a wide range of use cases such as non-fungible token (NFT) auctions, decentralized finance (DeFi) apps, and more. As per Coingecko, its market dominance increased to over 17%. In addition, Ethereum’s Improvement Proposal (EIP)-1559 is set to be introduced sometime in July, which is also fueling its adoption.

🥳 On a day that saw history be made with #Ethereum surpassing #Bitcoin in daily active addresses for the first time, #altcoins came to play. $KSM, $COMP, and $ZIL were among many projects to make an imprint on the markets, while $BTC ranged around $34.5k. https://t.co/cwjGvrLLeX pic.twitter.com/3AFQ0MHbcT
