BlackRock iShares Ethereum Trust: Over 1 Million ETH Held

BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust recently surpassed the milestone of 1 million ETH, solidifying its position as the second-largest ETF holder after Grayscale.

BlackRock's Recent Milestones in ETH Market

BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) holds a total of 1.025M ETH due to aggressive buying. The recent buying followed a previous series of ETH purchases in September, while the market drifted sideways. With these purchases, ETHA now holds over $3.9B in ETH, becoming the largest competitor to Grayscale’s Ethereum Trust, which still owns 1.96M ETH after divesting. BlackRock is the most actively bought fund, showing potential to catch up.

Competition and ETF Market Trends

BlackRock was behind the inflows in the past few weeks, where the ETF started attracting more aggressive investments after a period of selling. Compared to BTC, ETH-based ETFs hold a less significant amount of ETH, yet recent buying signals a potential shift. Fidelity is another rapidly expanding fund with a total of $1.63B in ETH. BlackRock's recent buying emphasizes its strategy of expansion and market dominance.

State and Prospects of the Ethereum Market

ETH remains under $4,000, losing its recent gains. The effect of ETF buying is relatively symbolic, but ETH continues to be indispensable for the DeFi ecosystem, locking in over $77.17B. Ethereum also boosted its standing as the largest carrier of stablecoins, surpassing TRON. A mix of sideways trading and promising on-chain data suggest that ETH may be undervalued, still capable of a breakout.

BlackRock’s aggressive buying solidifies its standing, but the Ethereum market remains cautious, anticipating clearer signals for future growth. The potential for new breakthroughs remains.
