According to the result of March 16, Ethereum, as well as bitcoin, turned out to be in the black, starting Thursday from the level of 2.75 thousand dollars. It is noteworthy that the rise of bitcoin happened against the background of the fact that the number of bitcoin addresses this week may exceed the symbolically important level of 40 million. According to #IntoTheBlock, at the beginning of this week, the number of such addresses reached almost 39.79 million, an increase of 888 thousand units since the beginning of the year.

Some analysts believe that such dynamics is an important factor in the short-term growth of the #price of cryptocurrency No. 1.
