iShares Ethereum ETF Reaches $1 Billion in Assets
Key Points:
- BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum ETF (ETHA) has exceeded $1 billion in assets, making it one of the top-performing ETFs in the U.S. within two months.
- The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed decisions on proposals for options trading on Ethereum ETFs, including iShares Ethereum ETF and other funds.
U.S. spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds are seeing heavy inflows as the cryptocurrency market is slowly showing signs of recovery.

iShares Ethereum ETF Surges Above $1 Billion in Assets
iShares Ethereum ETF, which has surpassed $1 billion in total assets, is now led in the Ethereum ETF space. This puts it in the top 20% of over 3,700 ETF products in the United States achievement considering that it reached such status in just two months.
Nate Geraci, president of The ETF Store, said in a post on X that the iShares Ethereum ETF is off to a pretty good start out of the gate. For many institutional and traditional investors, the iShares Ethereum ETF has been one of the primary vehicles through which they’ve been introduced to the cryptocurrency market, and assets under management for the fund have grown very quickly.
The approval of spot ETFs by the U.S. SEC has not been a small factor in bringing this wave of capital, just opening up to Ethereum a wider pool of investors through regulated financial products.
SEC Delays Decision on Ethereum ETF Options Trading
Despite such optimism, the SEC has delayed ruling on options listing on Ethereum ETFs of late. The regulator said it was extending the deadline to rule on a proposed change by Nasdaq ISE that would permit options trading on the iShares Ethereum ETF. This development leaves uncertainty on when investors might be able to trade options on Ethereum ETFs.
The SEC separately announced that it is also deferring its consideration to approve similar proposals by NYSE American LLC, Exchange Act Section 19, to list and trade options on the Bitwise Ethereum ETF, Grayscale Ethereum Trust and Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust.
