Ethereum network health — the live pulse of Ethereum

Ethereum as a living instrument: a disc that beats on every 12-second slot, one protocol-health metric per beat. Censorship resistance, open source, privacy and security — no prices, no market talk.

What Ethereum Beat measures

Ethereum Beat is a live, free, open-source instrument for the Ethereum network — protocol health, usage and neutrality, one metric per 12-second slot. It tracks four protocol properties (CROPS) and never prices or markets:

• Censorship resistance — no actor can selectively exclude a valid transaction.
• Open source & free — all of Ethereum is public, auditable and free to run and fork.
• Privacy — assets and identity are held by cryptography, not an account someone else controls.
• Security — attacking the chain means burning your own stake.

Live network-health readings

• Days of uptime: 4,054 days — Continuous days since genesis on 30 July 2015. Ethereum has never stopped producing blocks. (Heartbeat)
• Chain finalising: 473,341 — The last finalised epoch. Finality means the chain's history is locked in and cannot be rewritten. (Heartbeat)
• Sync participation: 98.6 % — Share of the sync committee signing off on the latest block. Near 100% means validators are present and agreeing. (Heartbeat)
• ETH staked: 43.03M ETH — Total ETH locked by validators as collateral for honest behaviour, shown with the share of all ETH. (Censorship resistance)
• Daily active addresses: 2,675,597 — Unique addresses active today across Ethereum and its layer 2 networks. (Open source & free)
• Daily transactions: 37,651,382 — Transactions settled today across Ethereum and its layer 2 networks. (Open source & free)
• Throughput: 117.6 Mgas/s — Combined computation processed per second across Ethereum and its layer 2 networks, measured in gas. (Open source & free)
• Real-world assets: $14.4B — Value of tokenised real-world assets, such as treasury bills and bonds, secured by Ethereum. (Security)
• Total value secured: $39.9B — Total value locked in applications that trust Ethereum and its layer 2 networks for security. (Security)

Channels and open data

Explore the network by channel: BEAT, NODES, BLOBS, FLOW, FINALITY, LAYERS and ROADMAP. Every number is available as open JSON with no API key at /api/snapshot and /api/metric/{key}; see About for the concept and every data source, or Developers to build on it.
