COINOTAG News reports that on December 8, Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas posted on social media that BlackRock has filed the official Form S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the iShares Staked Ethereum Trust ETF, the firm’s fourth cryptocurrency ETF product. The filing follows prior applications for a spot Bitcoin, spot Ethereum, and a Bitcoin Strategy ETF.
If approved, the vehicle would offer regulated exposure to staked Ether, providing institutional investors with a path to crypto yields via a listed trust, potentially supporting liquidity and price discovery in the sector.
This filing signals BlackRock’s continued ETF diversification in the crypto space and underscores ongoing regulatory engagement around digital asset products.
