What do the metrics show?
Active Addresses
Active Addresses are the number of unique addresses that send or receive a transaction in a given week. Since ETH addresses tend to get used more than once while in Bitcoin it's good practice to use a different address for every transaction, the Bitcoin numbers are inflated and thus the metric disadvantages Ethereum.
