Ethereum ETFs Record Over $1 Billion in Daily Inflows

• Ethereum ETFs move over $1 billion in one day
• Companies are accumulating billions in Ethereum for the long term
• Staking removes 27% of ETH from market circulation

Ethereum ETFs in the United States reached a significant milestone, attracting $1,018 billion in net inflows in just one trading day. This volume, the largest ever recorded for the asset, resulted in these funds now holding approximately 8% of the cryptocurrency's total supply.

Products managed by giants like BlackRock, Fidelity, and Grayscale led the inflows, bringing the assets under management of spot Ethereum ETFs to approximately $20 billion. This movement reinforces demand pressure, as funds are absorbing more ETH than is generated daily on the network.

Meanwhile, companies are also strengthening their positions in Ethereum. In the last 30 days, more than US$1,6 billion has been invested in the cryptocurrency, with companies such as SharpLink Gaming, BitMine Immersion, Bit Digital, and BTCS making significant contributions. In total, approximately 545 ETH were acquired during this period, highlighting the asset's growing use as a corporate store of value, in a strategy similar to Bitcoin's adoption on balance sheets.

Another significant factor contributing to supply scarcity is staking on the Ethereum network. Currently, approximately 27% of all ETH in circulation is locked in the validation mechanism, significantly reducing the amount available for trading on the open market.

This prolonged lockup increases price sensitivity to changes in demand. In a context of heightened institutional and corporate interest, any increase in demand could trigger sharper movements in ETH's value, fueling the appreciation seen in recent months.
