Bitwise anticipates $10 billion in Ethereum ETF inflows in H2 2025, driven by institutional participation and clearer investment narratives.
June 2025 saw $1.17 billion in Ethereum ETF inflows, marking a significant reversal from the slow start following the 2024 ETF launch.
Robinhood's Ethereum layer-2 and Bit Digital's treasury investment highlight expanding corporate confidence in Ethereum’s long-term utility.
Ethereum exchange-traded funds are gaining momentum, with inflows showing steady growth since their U.S. launch in July 2024. Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan now expects these funds to attract as much as $10 billion in capital during the second half of 2025.
After an underwhelming first year, Ethereum ETFs witnessed a strong rebound in June 2025. Data shows that $1.17 billion entered these funds last month alone. According to Hougan, investor interest is no longer just speculative. The evolving narrative surrounding Ethereum's blockchain use cases is helping institutional investors better understand the long-term utility of the asset.
Traditional Investors Drawn by Familiar Structures
Hougan attributed the expected surge to increased clarity around Ethereum’s use cases. He emphasized that the growing integration of stablecoins and tokenized stocks on the Ethereum blockchain is making the platform more accessible to traditional financial institutions. This combination is positioning Ethereum as both a technological foundation and an investment vehicle.

Over the past 24 hours alone, Ethereum ETFs recorded $40.7 million in net inflows. These figures suggest that investment appetite is no longer confined to retail traders. The shift has been supported by improving regulatory clarity in the U.S., creating a more favorable environment for large-scale institutional involvement.
New Developments Back Ethereum’s Utility Case
Further strengthening Ethereum's position, Robinhood recently announced the launch of its Ethereum layer-2 solution. Known as "Robinhood Chain," this initiative aims to support real-world assets by leveraging Arbitrum technology. CEO Vlad Tenev confirmed that regulatory cooperation is ongoing, with more details expected in the coming months.
Additionally, Bit Digital, a Nasdaq-listed firm, raised $163 million through a public offering aimed at building its Ethereum treasury. This move adds another layer of corporate validation and points to increasing interest in Ethereum as a balance sheet asset.
