About ETH/USD
Ethereum, launched in 2015, is the leading smart-contract platform — the settlement layer for most decentralised finance (DeFi), NFT and tokenisation activity. Ether (ETH) is the network's native asset, required as "gas" to pay for every transaction and computation, which ties demand for the token to actual usage of the chain.
Ethereum switched from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake in September 2022 — "the Merge" — cutting the network's energy use dramatically and allowing holders to earn staking rewards for securing the chain. ETH has no fixed supply cap, but the EIP-1559 upgrade of August 2021 burns a portion of every transaction fee, so net issuance varies with network activity. ETH/USD trades 24/7 and is the second-largest crypto market after Bitcoin.
On the session, ETH/USD is trading at 2,465.49, a move of -31.06 (-1.24%) versus the previous close of 2,496.55. The instrument has ranged between 2,442.44 and 2,523.30 so far today. FXMARE's technical engine currently reads the setup as Strong Buy.

ETH/USD — frequently asked questions
What is the Ethereum price right now?
This page tracks the live ETH/USD price with an intraday chart. Ethereum trades 24 hours a day, seven days a week - unlike forex and equities there is no weekend close, so gaps are rare but overnight moves are common.
What drives the Ethereum price?
Network demand (transaction and gas activity), the broader crypto cycle led by Bitcoin, staking flows and supply dynamics following the shift to proof-of-stake, plus macro liquidity conditions - crypto has traded as a high-beta risk asset, so Fed policy expectations matter more than many holders expect.
How is Ethereum different from Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is designed primarily as a fixed-supply monetary asset. Ethereum is a programmable settlement layer: its value is tied to demand for the applications and contracts running on it, and its supply schedule is variable rather than hard-capped. They often move together but for different underlying reasons.
