Since China's crypto crackdown, mining activity on the Ethereum network has decreased by roughly a quarter. The drop might possibly be the effect of an imminent big upgrade to ethereum, according to analysts. Since hitting record highs in mid-May, ether has dropped by about 40%. The decline in mining has exacerbated the situation. China thinks that the improvements would improve the system's long-term viability, security, and scalability.
