Ethereum Price Forecast: ETH transaction fees decline to an all-time low, bulls could force move above $2,850

Ethereum (ETH) recovered the $2,700 level on Wednesday despite its average transaction fees declining to an all-time low. The reduced fees could attract new users to the top Layer 1 (L1) blockchain and help bulls overcome the $2,850 critical resistance.
