Ethereum (ETH) network growth shows significant spike. Here are the reasons

The provided on-chain data shows a massive spike on the network growth chart with 155,230 new addresses registered on the network. This is the highest number of addresses created in one day since May 18. The large increase in the number of users is considered a strong bullish sign since more active users present on the network equals more transactions and fees spent.
