Ethereum ETFs are poised to attract a staggering $10 billion in inflows by the end of 2025, according to Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan’s forecast. The prediction comes amid a surge in demand and as Ethereum’s recent Pectra upgrade is expected to further accelerate this momentum.
As Ethereum ETFs have brought in an astonishing $1.17 billion in June alone, with total inflows reaching $1.5 billion for the first six months of 2025, the outlook remains optimistic. In fact, Hougan pointed out that Ethereum’s role in hosting tokenized assets will continue to drive interest from traditional investors.
The analyst attributed this surge to stablecoins and tokenized stocks now providing a clear narrative for these investors. Moreover, major institutions like BlackRock and Robinhood are already utilizing Ethereum as an infrastructure layer in the crypto space.
This significant development has positioned Ethereum at the forefront of the industry’s growth potential. Furthermore, upcoming staking ETFs have the potential to drive further interest from participants. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently clarified that crypto staking does not qualify as a securities offering, paving the way for new financial products.
As a result, Ethereum is poised to address long-standing scalability issues with its Pectra upgrade. This enhancement is set to improve the execution layer, consensus layer, and data scaling processes.
