This past year, Ethereum faced significant challenges, underscored by disappointing market performance post-launch of the Ethereum ETF. Inflows fell noticeably short of market anticipations, which raised questions regarding its future trajectory. Conversely, on July 31, 2024, the introduction of a legislative proposal by Senator Lummis sought to enhance Bitcoin’s status, advocating for its classification as a strategic reserve asset. This strategic positioning further solidified Bitcoin’s reputation as “digital gold,” amplifying its appeal among traditional finance (TradFi) investors. In contrast, Ethereum currently lacks a convincing narrative, resulting in investor skepticism and its relative underperformance compared to Bitcoin. As we approach 2025, there is an urgent need for ETF issuers to craft and amplify a coherent narrative that enhances Ethereum’s market allure, as relying solely on organic demand may not be sufficient to bridge the performance gap with Bitcoin.
