BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) has emerged as the leading institutional gateway to Ethereum, capturing $3.6 billion in assets as cryptocurrency ETFs gain momentum among traditional investors.

Record-Breaking Inflows

The fund’s performance has accelerated significantly, securing $1.5 billion in net inflows during a 16-day streak ending Thursday. This recent surge represents nearly half of the total $3.2 billion accumulated since the ETF’s July launch, according to CoinGlass data.

ETHA hit a single-day record with $293 million in inflows as Ethereum’s price reached $3,800 on December 5. The cryptocurrency subsequently broke through the $4,000 mark on December 6, reaching levels not seen since March.

Global Market Response

James Butterfill, CoinShares Head of Research, told Decrypt that investor interest extends beyond U.S. borders, with global Ethereum investment products attracting $3.5 billion since November 20.

BlackRock’s U.S. head of thematic and active ETFs, Jay Jacobs, indicated the firm will maintain its focus on Bitcoin and Ethereum products rather than expanding its cryptocurrency offerings.

The institutional momentum gained additional support after Donald Trump‘s appearance at the New York Stock Exchange, where he expressed positive sentiment toward cryptocurrency, contributing to $273 million in spot Ethereum ETF inflows, according to BRN analyst Valentin Fournier.

Ethereum faces competition from layer-2 networks – scaling solutions built on top of Ethereum’s main network – and alternative blockchains like Solana. However, asset managers including Bitwise and 21Shares have filed for spot Solana ETFs, indicating continued institutional interest in expanding cryptocurrency investment options.

Despite Ethereum not reaching its 2021 all-time high of $4,800, the recent ETF success suggests growing institutional confidence in the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.
