The ETHE (ETH) of Blackrock’s Ishares Ethereum (ETH) registered $ 1,244 billion in weekly tickets from August 18 to 22, occupying the second place among the more than 4,400 ETFs most tracked during the period.
The president of Novadius Wealth, Nate Geraci, said in a publication on August 29 through X that only the Vanguard ETF S&P 500 surpassed Etha with $ 1,711 billion in weekly flows.
He also highlighted the importance of Etha appearing among the “heavy batters” in the weekly entry classification, demonstrating institutional appetite due to exposure to Ethereum.
In addition, Bloomberg Etf analyst James Seyffart reported on August 29 that the ETFs of Ethereum have accumulated almost $ 10 billion in tickets since July, marking a substantial impulse for the asset class.
Before this increase, Ethereum ETFS had registered negative flows from $ 400 million to date, so it amounts to approximately $ 2.5 billion, according to Farside Investors data.
Capital rotation
Market conditions indicate that capital is turning from Bitcoin to Ethereum throughout August. While the Bitcoin ETFs registered $ 800 million in departures until August 28, Ethereum ETF accumulated $ 4 billion in tickets during the same period, due to Farside investors.
Input disparity reflects evolving institutional preferences as investors diversify cryptocurrency assignments beyond Bitcoin.
In addition, retail participation accelerated together with institutional interest. Defillama’s data show that Ethereum achieved a monthly spot negotiation volume of $ 135 billion as of August 29, exceeding the previous maximum of $ 117.6 billion as of May 2021.
Institutional adoption is not limited to exposure through ETF, since Ethereum’s corporate adoption accelerated significantly during the summer months.
The strategic data of the ETH reserve reveal that the corporate Ethereum Treasury bonds increased from $ 2.3 billion to $ 19.1 billion between June 1 and August 29.
In terms of Token, corporate reserves expanded from 916,268 ETH to 4,438,352 ETH during the same period, which represents approximately 3.7% of ETH total supply.
The treasure accumulation pattern, combined with the growing number of institutions that add ETH, suggests the institutional recognition of Ethereum as a treasure asset.
ETHA’s performance demonstrates Ethereum integration into conventional investment flows, with cryptographic products that compete directly against capital ETFs and bonds established for investor capital.
