Ethereum is making headlines again as US spot Ether ETFs recorded their highest inflows in four months, hitting $240.3 million on Wednesday. Leading the charge is BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA), which pulled in $163.6 million alone.
It is the 18th day in a row of positive inflows to Ether ETFs, the longest streak of 2025 to date. ETHA now manages over 1.55 million ETH, valued at $4.23 billion. The fund’s stock price has surged to $21, up more than 50% since “Trump Liberation Day.”
Experts like ETF Store President Nate Geraci are impressed. “Nearly $250 million just today… and this is without staking or in-kind redemptions. So early,” he noted. Ethereum’s rising strength is also visible in its performance against Bitcoin.
Since April, ETH has outperformed BTC by nearly 50%. The ETH/BTC ratio recently broke out, suggesting that Ethereum’s rally may continue. Analysts believe we’re witnessing a capital shift from Bitcoin to Ethereum as institutional investors chase higher returns.
This renewed interest in Ethereum aligns with bullish signals in the broader altcoin market. DeFi and Real-World Assets (RWA) sectors are gaining steam, boosted by demand for stablecoins and yield strategies. Even the SEC seems more open now, with Chair Paul Atkins supporting DeFi growth, another win for Ethereum.
As its inflows are high, prices are going up, and its market dominance is increasing, Ethereum seems to be approaching another stage of its power, and it has only begun.
