Kraken quote used as a cross-check
A separate query to Kraken returned a last trade of $2,734.98. Its 24-hour low and high were $2,573.60 and $2,748.87. The exchange figure is not a replacement for the aggregate: it is a transparent check from one venue, where order books, fees and execution conditions differ from other markets.
Reading the percentage change correctly
The 5.76% figure is a rolling comparison, not a session close. It will change as the starting observation moves through the window. Crypto markets do not have one global closing auction, so CapKet records both the source and timestamp instead of describing the number as an official close.
Price does not measure network activity
Ether is used to pay for transactions and support economic security on Ethereum, but this report contains market data rather than a claim about protocol usage. Fees, transaction demand, validator activity and application usage require separate, independently sourced measurements. None is inferred from price alone.
Checks for the next update
Readers can compare venue turnover, order-book liquidity and derivatives positioning using consistent timestamps. Network indicators may add context only when their methodology is stated. A new material observation will be published separately so this article remains a fixed record.
Sources and continuity
The aggregate fields come from CoinGecko’s markets endpoint and methodology; the venue reading comes from Kraken’s public ticker. CapKet’s prior Ethereum market update is preserved and has not been rewritten.
