Ethereum ETFs Outperform Bitcoin ETFs in 2025

In a significant shift, Ethereum-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs) surpassed their Bitcoin counterparts in 2025, fueled by substantial institutional interest and investments from prominent firms like BlackRock and Fidelity. This trend reflects the growing prominence of Ethereum in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space as well as its increasing adoption by corporate treasury departments. The surge in Ethereum ETF performance outpaces Bitcoin, primarily driven by institutions seeking to capitalize on the digital asset’s potential.
