The decline has come as BTC price fell from its year-to-date highs above $31,000 \u2013 the price of bitcoin is currently hovering around $26,800.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As for Ethereum, the proof-of-stake network\u2019s 7-day average trading volume has fallen sharply from nearly $20 billion in April to just over $4.6 billion in May. Like Bitcoin, Ethereum trading volume has dried up over the past month as the hype around the Shapella upgrade died down and prices fell from above $2,100.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">ETH\/USD currently trades around $1,820, up by about 1.2% in the past 24 hours but in the red over the past 30 days by nearly 3%.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Bitcoin and Ether seeing a decrease in trading volume could be a signal that investors are increasingly cautious as market uncertainty swirls. This outlook is exacerbated by the overall nerves around risky assets as inflation, interest rates and the US debt ceiling contribute to indecisiveness.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/bitcoin-and-ethereum-volumes-dry-up-amid-price-struggles\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Bitcoin, Ethereum &amp; Crypto News ) Amid price struggles, on-chain metrics show Bitcoin and Ethereum volumes have dried up.
