Ethereum News Today: BlackRock’s ETHA hits $639.87M daily inflow record as Ethereum ETFs surge past $25B AUM

BlackRock’s Ethereum ETF (ETHA) recorded a record daily inflow of $639.87 million on a single day, the highest since its launch [1]. This surge in capital contributed to the fund’s total net inflows surpassing $10 billion, with the fund now holding over 3.3 million Ethereum units [2]. The performance underscores the increasing institutional and retail interest in Ethereum-backed investment products, especially as the market anticipates regulatory clarity and broader acceptance of digital assets.

The record-breaking inflows were accompanied by a notable rise in ETHA’s share price, which climbed approximately 5% to reach $33.02—an all-time high [3]. This price movement reflects the strong investor sentiment surrounding the fund and the broader Ethereum market. BlackRock officials noted that the growing interest in ETHA signals confidence in the crypto market and indicates the potential for sustained demand [4].

Ethereum ETFs, including ETHA, have collectively attracted over $25 billion in assets under management, with ETHA alone seeing its holdings double to $10 billion within days [7]. While other Ethereum ETFs such as Fidelity’s FETH and Grayscale’s Ether Mini Trust also recorded inflows, BlackRock’s product remained the top performer in terms of capital attraction [6].

The timing of these inflows aligns with heightened speculation around U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) decisions on spot Ethereum ETFs [8]. Analysts suggest that the inflow trend is being driven by anticipation of favorable regulatory outcomes and the broader shift in institutional capital toward crypto-backed investment vehicles [5]. While uncertainty remains, the current data indicates that Ethereum ETFs are playing a pivotal role in legitimizing and expanding access to the cryptocurrency market.

Experts attribute the success of ETHA to the growing acceptance of crypto among institutional players and the improving regulatory environment [5]. As Ethereum’s price remains near its historical high, the demand for regulated and liquid investment options continues to grow [4]. The performance of ETHA is seen as a model for future crypto ETFs, demonstrating how institutional-grade products can shape the trajectory of the digital asset market.
