Ethereum News Today: BlackRock’s ETHA ETF Surges 200% in July Amid $9.74 Billion Inflows

BlackRock’s Ethereum ETF ($ETHA) experienced a significant surge in July 2025, with its holdings increasing by more than 200% over the month, marking one of the most dramatic growth spurts for a cryptocurrency-based fund since the launch of U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs [3]. The fund captured $9.74 billion in net inflows during July, bringing its total net assets to $11.37 billion [3]. This surge reflects a strong institutional appetite for Ethereum, with $ETHA accounting for 3 million $ETH in holdings—representing 2.52% of the total circulating supply of Ethereum [3].

The ETF’s performance was further underscored by an increase in trading activity. Daily trading volumes reached $32.7 million, with the overall value traded climbing to $936.21 million by July 31 [3]. This growth was not isolated to $ETHA; the broader Ethereum ETF market also saw robust inflows, with spot Ethereum ETFs collectively receiving nearly $5.4 billion in July, the second-highest monthly inflow on record [3]. The momentum was part of a 20-day consecutive inflow streak for Ethereum ETFs, with $17 million in net inflows recorded on the final day of the month [3].

BlackRock’s $ETHA outpaced other Ethereum ETFs in both inflow volume and market share, capturing 78% of the total inflows into Ethereum ETFs in July [3]. According to Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, the pace of ETHA’s growth would have been historic even in the absence of concurrent Bitcoin ETF activity [3]. The surge in inflows is expected to reinforce Ethereum’s role in the mainstream financial ecosystem, with total net assets under management for Ethereum ETFs now standing at $21.52 billion—accounting for 5% of Ethereum’s total market capitalization [3].

The ETF’s aggressive accumulation of assets may also influence Ethereum’s price action in the coming months. Analysts suggest that if institutional buying continues at the current pace, it could trigger new price highs for Ethereum [1]. The broader market environment has been supportive, with increased adoption of decentralized finance (DeFi) and a rise in Ethereum-based applications contributing to favorable conditions for ETF growth [3].
