#ETFWatch The Ethereum ETFs open the door to broader institutional adoption, but they remain incomplete. For Robbie Mitchnick of BlackRock, their main disadvantage lies in the absence of staking, a pillar of performance in Ethereum. This lack could limit their competitiveness against direct investment strategies, which would question their ability to meet the expectations of professional investors.

This enthusiasm illustrates the attraction of institutions to a product that facilitates access to Ethereum while eliminating the custody and security restrictions associated with cryptocurrencies. In just a few months, Ethereum ETFs have recorded $2.5 billion in net inflows, confirming the growing interest of professional investors in this asset class.
