Ethereum’s Decade: Milestones and Market Confidence

July 30 marked Ethereum’s 10th birthday and companies are choosing to celebrate not with words but with investments. The Ether Machine described its purchase as part of a long term strategy to “accumulate, compound and support ETH” not just as an asset but as the foundation of a new internet.

Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin said the platform is stable and evolving, citing its 100% uptime since 2015. This has given corporate confidence, solidifying Ethereum as a robust infrastructure for DeFi, smart contracts and Web3 applications.

“Ethereum is antifragile. It has adapted and remains a trust layer in the digital ecosystem.” — Joseph Lubin

Ether ETFs Drive Institutional Demand

Spot Ether ETFs are driving institutional participation to new highs. Leading the charge is BlackRock’s ETHA which now holds over 3 million ETH, $11 billion in assets. Overall Ether ETFs hold close to 6 million ETH, expanding the network’s financial footprint.

The US SEC’s approval of BlackRock’s ETH staking proposal suggests a potential change in ETF structure by late 2025 or early 2026 which could allow for staked ETH holdings. Analysts predict this will drive even more institutional demand.> 🔍 ETF Data

As ETH flirts with the $4,000 mark, market momentum and growing corporate interest suggest the potential for a renewed bullish breakout.
