ETHGas (GWEI) has experienced a dramatic 32.4% price surge in the past 24 hours, reaching $0.068116 as of April 12, 2026, marking one of the most significant single-day rallies for the Ethereum gas token.
The token’s market capitalization has expanded to $118.98 million, representing a 31.7% increase ($28.6 million) in 24 hours, while trading volume has reached $23.17 million, indicating strong market participation in the rally.
Price Action Details
ETHGas hit a 24-hour high of $0.072936 on April 11, 2026, which also marked its all-time high (ATH). The token is currently trading 6.5% below this peak. The 24-hour low stood at $0.050312, representing a significant intraday range of 45%.
The price change of $0.0167 in absolute terms reflects sustained buying pressure throughout the trading session. However, the past hour has seen a slight correction of 2.6%, suggesting some profit-taking after the explosive move.
Extended Performance Metrics
The rally extends beyond the 24-hour timeframe. ETHGas has gained 29.6% over the past week and 31.5% over the past 30 days, demonstrating consistent upward momentum throughout April 2026.
Since its all-time low of $0.01668 recorded on January 21, 2026, ETHGas has appreciated an extraordinary 308.8%, nearly quadrupling in value over less than three months.
Market Structure
ETHGas currently ranks #239 by market capitalization among all cryptocurrencies. The token has a circulating supply of 1.75 billion GWEI out of a total and maximum supply of 10 billion tokens, indicating that 17.5% of the total supply is currently in circulation.
The fully diluted valuation (FDV) stands at $679.9 million, suggesting significant potential dilution as more tokens enter circulation. The FDV-to-market-cap ratio of approximately 5.7x indicates substantial locked or unvested tokens.
Market Implications
The surge in ETHGas comes amid heightened activity in the Ethereum ecosystem. As a token tied to Ethereum network gas metrics, the price movement may reflect increased attention to network utilization and transaction fee mechanisms.
The significant trading volume of $23.17 million represents approximately 19.5% of the current market cap, suggesting strong liquidity and active trading interest. This volume-to-market-cap ratio indicates healthy market participation rather than thin, volatile trading.
Traders should note the high volatility, as evidenced by the 45% intraday range, and exercise appropriate risk management when considering positions in GWEI.
