iShares Staked Ethereum Trust ETF

ETHB

Market cap $535M

The top five performing iShares ETFs in July highlight strong returns in specialized market segments. Driven by gains in China large-caps, positive Ethereum momentum, and renewed geopolitical tensions leading to higher oil prices, July performance leadership came from a diverse range of asset classes.

The iShares Ethereum Trust ETF (NASDAQ:  ETHA) has become the default way for U.S.

ETHB's access to staking differentiates it from ETHA but comes with a higher expense ratio. Ethereum's long-term fundamentals remain constructive, supported by its leadership in stablecoins, DeFi, and broader on-chain activity despite the current bear market environment. A more hawkish Federal Reserve, elevated inflation forecasts, and tighter liquidity conditions continue to create headwinds for cryptocurrencies, limiting the likelihood of a sustained near-term breakout in ETH-USD.

The United States spot Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded funds recorded their highest daily cash inflow on Monday since May 5.

Global digital asset exchange traded products (ETPs) closed May 2026 with total assets under management (AUM) of $130.9 billion, down 4% at the end of April, according to research from Fineqia International Inc (CSE:FNQ). The decline partially reversed April's rebound and confirmed that market conditions remained uneven following the first-quarter sell-off.

Ethereum ( CRYPTO: ETH ) is trading at $2,076 today, roughly 58% below the all-time high of $4,946 it hit in August 2025.

Ethereum ( CRYTPO: ETH ) just closed its fourth losing week in a row, sliding to $2,128 and breaking the $2,200 support that held all through April.

iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF and Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund are the titans of the Bitcoin ETF space. iShares Ethereum Trust ETF provides efficient exposure to the second-largest cryptocurrency.

The engine of ETF innovation is firing on all cylinders. As the second quarter gains momentum, the industry is on a record-setting pace for both launches and inflows.
