Ethereum is quietly attracting massive institutional attention, even as its price struggles to reclaim the $2,600 level. U.S.-listed spot Ethereum ETFs just recorded a daily inflow of $148.57 million, the second-largest since February, with an 8-week cumulative total nearing $2 billion—a strong vote of confidence in ETH’s long-term value.
Public companies like SharpLink Gaming and BitMine are accumulating Ethereum as a treasury asset, while Robinhood’s launch of tokenised US stocks on Arbitrum brings real-world utility to Ethereum’s Layer 2 ecosystem.
Despite this bullish institutional backdrop, Ethereum’s technical setup remains mixed. A looming weekly death cross and over $56 million in long liquidations hint at downside risk. However, ETH is still trading within a rising channel, and holding support at $2,474 could open the door for a breakout above $2,855, targeting $3,500 or more.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER)—a Bitcoin-native Layer 2 powered by Solana’s SVM—has crossed $1.92 million in its public presale, with fast smart contracts, BTC bridging, and meme coin creation among its standout features. Backed by a full audit and real utility, $HYPER is emerging as a key Layer 2 player for 2025.
