As June ended, crypto service providers embarked on assessing the performances of various platforms. One leading platform that recorded disappointing numbers in the last 30 days was the Ethereum Name Service [ENS].
The domain name service provider saw an index of 122,000 new .eth registrations in June. These represented a 66% decline from the 365,000 .eth registrations recorded by the platform in May. Furthermore, between May and June, its protocol revenue saw a 65% drop. In May, the platform recorded 3,900 ETH in fees paid to process transactions on it. However, in June, this too dropped to 2,500 ETH.
Additionally, the domain name service provider noted that in June, 25,000 new ETH accounts held at least one ENS name. This was a 128% decline from the 57,000 recorded in May.
With this general decline within the ENS ecosystem, how did its native token, ENS perform in the last month?
We all fall down

In fact, the aggregate amount of ENS tokens across transactions that happened in the last 30 days touched a high of 1.66 million on 21 June. Since then, it has declined by 59%. At press time, this number was spotted at 668,000.
Interestingly, on a seven-day average, the exchange flow balance posted a positive 61.3k value. A bullish price correction is, therefore, imminent.
