In December 2024, net inflows for Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) totaled $2.6 billion, marking eight consecutive weeks of positive inflows.
This surge was reported by Farside Investors and CoinShares, with the week of Nov. 26 setting a record of $2.2 billion in inflows, indicating a rising interest from investors in Ether-backed products.
Despite this growth, Ether ETFs still lag behind Bitcoin ETFs, which closed 2024 with a staggering $35 billion in net inflows.
However, industry analysts predict that Ether ETFs may gain more traction in 2025, especially if the price of Ether outperforms Bitcoin and regulators allow returns from staking within ETFs. Among Ether ETFs, BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) took the lead with net inflows of $3.5 billion in 2024, followed by Fidelity’s Ethereum Fund (FETH) with $1.5 billion.
