Ethereum Treasuries and Institutional Inflows Surge Amid Weekly Rally
Ethereum is seeing a massive uptick in corporate and institutional interest, as major treasury firms and investment funds poured billions into the digital asset over the past month. The trend highlights Ethereum’s growing appeal as a long-term strategic holding among companies and fund managers alike.
Ethereum Treasuries Accumulate Over 545,000 ETH
In the past 30 days, corporate treasuries have accumulated over 545,000 ETH, amounting to approximately $1.6 billion in market value. The trend mirrors Bitcoin’s treasury boom, with some companies now establishing Ethereum as their primary digital asset reserve.
On Monday, BitMine Immersion Technologies, chaired by Fundstrat’s Tom Lee, reported 163,142 ETH in its reserves, worth about $480 million. Lee compared the trend to Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin playbook, saying that Ethereum-focused treasuries capturing 5% of the ETH supply could benefit from a similar “Wall Street put”—a reference to growing institutional support.
SharpLink Becomes Largest ETH Treasury
Leading the charge is SharpLink, the Ethereum-focused gaming and analytics platform founded by Joseph Lubin. The company acquired:
-
10,000 ETH on July 11
-
16,370 ETH on July 13
-
24,371 ETH on July 15 (worth $73.2 million)
This brings SharpLink’s total ETH holdings to over 255,000 ETH, making it the largest corporate Ethereum treasury to date.
Lubin, who also founded Consensys, humorously referred to himself as a “self-appointed representative of The League of Extraordinary ETH Accumulator Gentlemen,” acknowledging the rapid expansion of ETH accumulation across corporate treasuries.
More Firms Join the ETH Accumulation Race
Other notable entrants include:
-
Bit Digital, with over 100,000 ETH
-
BTCS, which raised $62.4 million to boost its holdings to 29,122 ETH
-
GameSquare, which unveiled a $100 million ETH treasury strategy on July 8
These firms represent a growing wave of companies shifting toward Ethereum-centric asset management strategies.
Institutional Inflows Hit Nearly $1 Billion
The Ethereum rally isn’t limited to corporate treasuries. According to CoinShares, Ethereum-based investment funds attracted $990 million in inflows last week—the fourth-highest weekly inflow on record.
So far in 2025, ETH funds have seen over $4 billion in cumulative inflows, with nearly 30% of that coming in just the past two weeks, marking a dramatic acceleration in institutional interest.
Ethereum funds now represent 19.5% of total global crypto fund AUM, outpacing Bitcoin’s 9.8% on a relative basis, according to CoinShares.
ETH Price Action
On July 11, ETH briefly surpassed the $3,000 mark for the first time since February before pulling back slightly. Still, the token is up 17% this week, reflecting growing optimism in both retail and institutional segments.
