Ethereum – A ‘record high’ in July, but how will the rest of 2025 look?

Key Points

1. Corporate Ethereum reserves surged by 128% in July 2025, reaching 2.7 million ETH ($11.6 billion), with 24 new firms adding ETH to their holdings.

2. The surge was fueled by attractive staking yields, ETH’s deflationary tokenomics, and a shift toward direct ownership over ETF exposure.

3. Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded over $1 billion in net inflows in a single day on 11 August, contributing to ETH's price rise above $4,300.

4. Ethereum’s market share increased to 11.8%, while Bitcoin’s dominance declined, signaling a shift toward altcoins.

5. Strategic ETH reserves now account for 7.98% of ETH’s total supply, up from just 3% in early April 2025.
