BlackRock’s spot Ether ETF received $109.9 million in new investments on August 6. Since its launch on July 23, the total investments in the fund have reached $869.8 million.
Farside Investors reported that August 6 was the third biggest day for inflows into the iShares Ethereum Trust. Investors took advantage of Ether’s 18% price drop to $2,520 on August 5.
BlackRock’s Spot Ether ETF Performance in 2024
The $870 million in inflows places BlackRock’s spot Ether ETF among the top six best-performing ETFs launched in 2024, according to Nate Geraci, President of The ETF Store. Four of the other top performers are spot Bitcoin ETFs, including BlackRock’s IBIT.
BlackRock’s ETHA attracted $47.1 million on the crypto industry’s “Black Monday,” a day when over $600 million in leveraged long positions were wiped out. Despite the massive market fall, the combined inflows for ETHA on August 5 and 6 alone put it in the top 10% of ETFs launched in 2024, Geraci noted.
Notably, all of this success has been achieved without the spot Ether ETF issuers offering staking returns and options trading.

In contrast, Grayscale’s higher fee Ethereum product, ETHE, experienced an outflow of $39.7 million.
