Ethereum adoption grows as BlackRock ETF secures 1 million ETH

BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHA) has reached 1 million ETH in holdings, worth over $4 billion. This milestone reached on December 18, 2024 constitutes a remarkable feat for the fund, created only six months earlier, in July.

As institutional interest in cryptocurrencies increases, this ETF is emerging as a favorite among new Ethereum products.

Institutional interest on the rise

BlackRock’s growing stakes in Ethereum ETFs are part of a broader trend of large companies investing in cryptocurrencies. In 2024, billions of dollars have been invested in new Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds.

According to blockchain tracker Lookonchain, ETHA now has 1,025,378 ETH, making it the first new Ethereum ETF to reach this milestone. In comparison, Grayscale’s Ethereum ETF holds around 476,000 ETH.

The increase in assets under management (AUM) is particularly impressive given the early difficulties Ethereum ETFs faced at launch. Many products saw minimal inflows as they competed with larger funds such as Grayscale’s ETHE.

As of September 2024, a substantial change has occurred. Following political events such as Donald Trump’s electoral triumph, market sentiment has improved significantly. Reports indicate that net inflows into Ether ETFs exceeded $850 million in the previous week.

A promising future for Ethereum

Experts believe that growing interest could indicate a bright future for Ethereum. Juan Leon, senior investment strategist at Bitwise Asset Management, estimates that Ether is expected to rebound in 2025. He says the real-world asset market could produce more than $100 billion in annual fees for ETH, well over beyond its current profits.

The current influx of capital into Ethereum ETFs reflects the newfound confidence of institutional investors. Data from CoinGlass shows that these products have received significant investment recently, with total assets of several Ethereum ETFs exceeding $14 billion. This trend shows that more and more investors want to gain exposure to Ether without having to manage their own portfolio.

Looking to the future

The head of digital assets research at BlackRock warns that it may take some time for Ethereum products to catch up with their Bitcoin counterparts, despite this encouraging trend. As the market and regulatory environment evolves, the road ahead may still prove difficult.

Nonetheless, with growing institutional support and increasing interest from traditional financial entities, the prospects for BlackRock’s Ether ETF and the broader cryptocurrency market look promising as we approach 2025.
