Therefore, it can be confirmed that the demand for Ethereum in DeFi has been beneficial to the value of ETH.<\/p>\n<p>The team at Glassnode has also identified that demand for Ethereum has reached levels where 2021 has seen over 10 events where 200k ETH has been <a href=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/ethereum-investors-withdraw-659k-eth-from-crypto-exchanges-in-one-hour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">withdrawn from crypto exchanges in a single day<\/a>. Such an increase in Ethereum outflows from crypto exchanges proves that investors are more comfortable with the self-custody of their ETH and making use of it in DeFi.<\/p>\n<h2>Ethereum Sets a New All-time High of $3,605<\/h2>\n<p>With respect to price, Ethereum has just set a new all-time high of $3,604 and looks primed to keep pushing towards <a href=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/ethereum-could-see-a-new-round-of-growth-to-4-5k-5k-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">the $5k ceiling<\/a> in the days and weeks to follow.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, Ethereum is consolidating at the $3,400 price area with the possibility of additional gains during the weekend.
