Crypto界网消息,据 CoinDesk 最新报道,以Ethereum blockchain in January 2026 saw active addresses briefly surpass 1.3 million, exceeding major Layer-2 networks like Arbitrum and Base. This growth was mainly driven by the Fusaka upgrade in December last year, which significantly reduced transaction fees. However, security researcher Andrey Sergeenkov analyzed that about two-thirds of this data are related to "address poisoning" attacks, where attackers send small amounts of stablecoins to millions of wallets to trick users into copying similar addresses for transactions. This attack has resulted in confirmed losses of at least $740,000.
