BlackRock Ethereum ETF Hits New Milestone
BlackRock’s iShares Ether ETF (ETHA), witnessed the highest daily inflows since its inception on Thursday at $292 million. Over the past week, ETHA has been single-handedly driving the total inflows with itself clocking $800 million in inflows during the past five trading sessions.
As of now, the BlackRock Ethereum ETF holds 837.5K ETH, worth $3.27 billion, solidifying its position as a dominant player in the market.
Since its July launch, BlackRock iShares Ethereum ETF alone has attracted $2.6 billion in total inflows, per data from Farside Investors. The growing momentum highlights increasing investor interest in Ethereum-focused financial products.
Following yesterday’s numbers, the net inflows across all US Ether ETFs also crossed $1 billion for the first time, now at $1.3 billion.
Nate Geraci, President of ETF Store, said that the ETFs have achieved this milestone despite facing significant obstacles such as restrictions on staking capabilities, $3.5 billion outflows from Grayscale’s ETHE, absence of options trading for Ether ETFs, etc.
ETH Price Rally to $5,000 Soon?
Despite 9% gains on the weekly chart, the Ethereum price is currently confronting a major resistance at $3928, crossing which it can set the eyes on $5,000.
Renowned crypto analyst Venturefounder points out that ETH is approaching a breakout from a three-year-long triangle consolidation pattern.
According to the analyst, Ethereum could also exit a seven-year trading range, setting the stage for a rapid surge reminiscent of its explosive rally during the 2016-2017 period.
This historical pattern saw ETH achieve unprecedented highs in a short time frame. As a result, Venturefounder predicts Ethereum could reach a new all-time high, targeting $15,937 by May 2025.
While BlackRock Ethereum ETF inflows surge, the selling pressure from Ethereum whales has continued amid the recent ETH price surge.
As per blockchain analytics platform Spot on Chain, a giant Ethereum whale has deposited its remaining 60,079 ETH, worth approximately $234 million, to the crypto exchange Bitfinex after nearly six years of holding.
The whale originally withdrew 87,085 ETH from Bitfinex in January 2019 when Ethereum was trading at just $153, amounting to a value of $13.4 million. In 2020, the whale transferred 600 ETH to Tornado Cash for privacy purposes.
In a strategic move, the whale began redepositing ETH to Bitfinex in November 2023 and December 2024, totaling 86,484 ETH at an average price of $3,331.
