Ethereum's Price Surge Driven by Regulatory Clarity and Institutional Inflows

Ethereum's recent price surge has been attributed to a combination of factors, including regulatory clarity from the SEC and institutional inflows.

According to an analysis by XWIN Research Japan, Ethereum is transitioning towards a DeFi infrastructure asset, driven by its utility as a settlement and execution layer for global finance.

This shift is reflected in on-chain data, which shows that active addresses on Ethereum are trending upward and network usage is expanding.
