As a seasoned crypto investor with over a decade of experience in this ever-evolving market, I find myself both intrigued and cautiously optimistic about the recent developments surrounding Ethereum and its ETFs. The impressive performance of BlackRock’s iShares Ether ETF (ETHA) has been nothing short of remarkable, with over $618 million in inflows in just six trading sessions. This rapid growth is not only a testament to the growing interest in Ethereum but also to the credibility and reputation that BlackRock brings to the table.
On July 30, after four straight days of outflows, the Ethereum ETF experienced net inflows. Specifically, the BlackRock Ether ETF ETHA recorded over $118 million in inflows that day. Despite this positive trend, the price of Ethereum is currently undergoing some selling pressure and has dropped by 1.21%, trading at approximately $3,274.43 as we speak.
BlackRock Ethereum ETF Hits New Milestones
Daily inflows have been recorded for BlackRock’s iShares Ether ETF since its debut, amounting to over $618 million in the first six trading days, according to Farside Investors’ data.
Moreover, it’s worth noting that the iShares Ether ETF has made its way into the top 15 ETFs with the highest inflows this year, according to data from ETH Store President Nate Geraci. Given that there have been over 330 ETF launches in 2024, the success of the iShares Ether ETF is particularly noteworthy. In addition, Nate Geraci pointed out that the top four inflows have predominantly gone to Bitcoin spot ETFs.
Within a single week of its debut, the iShares Ethereum ETF has managed to rank among the top 15 ETFs with the highest inflows for the entire year.

Additionally, Samara Cohen, BlackRock’s Chief Investment Officer, expressed that their model portfolios might aim for Ethereum ETF investments before the end of this year.
Alternatively, the Grayscale Ethereum ETF (ETHE) has experienced six straight days of withdrawals. On Tuesday alone, there were outflows amounting to $120 million, bringing the total to over $1.8 billion since the streak began.
On Tuesday, there were investments totaling $12.4 million into Grayscales mini-ETH and $16.4 million into Fidelity FETH. This resulted in a total inflow of $33.7 million on that day. In other words, net flows for Tuesday were positive at $33.7 million.
According to Mads Eberhardt, a senior crypto analyst at Steno Research, it’s encouraging to note that the daily outflows from the Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) have been decreasing and we might soon witness outflows below $100 million.
The decrease in investments from the Ethereum ETF hasn’t stopped just yet, but it seems probable that it will soon this week. Once it does, the upward trend should continue.

ETH Action Moving Ahead
Despite a decline in ETF investments, the price of Ethereum has persistently dipped by approximately 4.5% during the past week. Currently, Ethereum is being traded at $3,281 and holds a market capitalization of $394 billion.
Financial experts predict that Ethereum (ETH) might maintain a stable trend throughout most of August, potentially breaking free in September. This breakout could be significantly influenced by the anticipated interest rate cut from the Federal Reserve in September, which may spark a surge in ETH’s price. Moreover, analysts are optimistic that the rise following the Ethereum Trust (ETF) launch might surpass Solana’s growth trajectory.
