What You Need to Know:

• Ethereum’s ether (ETH) is drawing heightened interest from investors, as U.S.-listed spot ETFs are showcasing one of their strongest inflows to date this week.
• BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust recorded its largest single-day inflow on Thursday, exceeding $300 million, thus raising its total assets under management to $5.6 billion, according to data from Farside Investors.

Broader Context

This recent trend reflects a significant revival in investments tied to ether. The nine U.S.-listed ETH ETFs recorded a total of $703 million in net inflows throughout the week, becoming the third-most substantial weekly influx since their inception in July last year.

In spite of ether’s price having lagged behind Bitcoin’s growth this year, a report from asset management firm Fineqia indicates a remarkable recovery in demand for ether-backed investment products during the first half of 2025.

These developments suggest a promising trajectory for such investment products as they witness increasing popularity, even as the price per ETH has faced challenges.

Additional Notes

The capital influx played a pivotal role in boosting ETH’s value to $3,000, marking its peak price in over four months.
