Analysis | Ethereum’s rate of adding new transaction blocks is picking up again: Last week, Ethereum’s Constantinople and St. Petersburg successfully implemented hard forks. Now, the rate at which blocks of new transactions are being added to the ethereum blockchain has picked up again. According to the blockchain analysis website Etherscan, within 24 hours after the Ethereum mainnet accepted the upgrade, the average number of new blocks per day has exceeded 1,500. The main reason for the surge in the number of Ethereum blocks is that last Thursday, the Ethereum improvement plan 1234 was activated. The purpose of this plan is to disable a piece of code in the "difficulty bomb" software, and the validity period is as long as 12 months. But now, the Ethereum difficulty bomb has been delayed, and the effects of the bomb seem to be quickly reversed. According to an analysis report by Etherscan a day after the activation of the hard fork, the time for creating an Ethereum block has been reduced from 19 seconds to 14 seconds. According to a report released by the Ethereum blockchain analysis platform Alethio, from the activation of the hard fork to the present, no significant fluctuations have been found in the transaction volume and the number of smart contract message calls.
