Blackrock dominates ethereum etf inflows
BlackRock Ethereum ETF (ETHA) has dominated most of the inflows since its inception, with the net inflows crossing $5.5 billion. ETHA has seen inflows for nearly 29 of the past 30 days, making it one of the best-performing Ethereum funds currently in the market.
Despite the strong Ethereum ETF inflows , ETH whales have continued with their selloff, which has put selling pressure on the ETH price for a long time. As a result, ETH has failed to surpass the $2,500 resistance and has been flirting underneath it for quite some time.
If the strong inflows into spot Ethereum ETFs continue, it could pave the way to introduce staking features for the existing Ethereum ETFs in the market.
