Ethereum’s ether (ETH), the second largest crypto asset, is seeing renewed investor interest, with spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the U.S. recording one of their strongest streak of momentum of their one-year history.
On Thursday, BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) booked its largest daily inflow to date, with over $300 million, pushing its total assets under management to $5.6 billion, data compiled by Farside Investors show.
That’s part of a broader resurgence in ether-backed investment products.
The nine U.S.-listed ETH ETFs attracted a combined $703 million in net inflows this week, according to crypto data provider SoSoValue. Although Friday’s data is still pending, it has already marked the third-strongest weekly haul since the products launched last July.
Investor demand has picked up lately even as ether’s price has lagged behind bitcoin this year, a new report from asset manager Fineqia noted.
The AUM of ETH-backed exchange-traded products (ETPs) grew 61% faster in the first half of 2025 than the market capitalization of the underlying asset, a sign of steady inflows into the products, the report said.
The report notes that ETP demand began to rebound by late April and continued into June, outpacing ETH’s price gain.
The capital flood helped fuel ETH’s rebound to $3,000, its highest price in more than four months.
