#机构以太坊储备破1000万枚# **The amount of Ethereum held by institutions and ETF positions has exceeded 10 million ETH**. Here are the details:
### **Key Data and Background**
- **Breakthrough Date**: August 16, 2025 (recent data).
- **Holding Entity**: Ethereum Treasury Companies (such as enterprise-level reserve institutions) and Ethereum Spot ETFs (such as BlackRock IBIT, etc.).
- **Historical Comparison**: The total staked amount on the Ethereum beacon chain network surpassed 10 million ETH in February 2022, but this time it was for **institutional active reserve**, not for staking lock-up, reflecting the long-term allocation demand for ETH by institutions.
### **Market Impact Analysis**
1. **Institution-led Market**
- Wang Feng, the founder of Blue Harbor Interactive, pointed out that the current rise in Ethereum prices is heavily driven by institutional investors, reconstructing the "crypto version of Wall Street."
- Large hedge fund Brevan Howard holds over $2 billion in BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF (IBIT), indicating that traditional financial giants are accelerating their investments in crypto assets.
2. **Price Support Logic**
- Institutional reserves increase and decrease the market circulation, forming long-term buying support. For example, the value of ETH involved in Ethereum validators exiting the queue has risen to over 3 billion USD, but the staking redemption has not significantly impacted the price.
- The TVL (Total Value Locked) on the Ethereum chain has surpassed 95 billion USD for the first time since January 2022, and the increase in ecosystem activity has further attracted institutional participation.
3. **Impact on Bitcoin**
- Institutions are allocating ETH or diverting some Bitcoin funds. Over the past 6 months, 30% of the top 100 companies in the S&P 500 index have had higher volatility than Bitcoin, indicating a change in traditional institutions' risk appetite for crypto assets.
### **Future Outlook**
- **Price Prediction**: The Wang Feng team believes that Ethereum may突破 $5000 faster than the market expects, with the current price stage similar to Bitcoin's $25,000 level in February 2023.
- **Risk Warning**: Institutions such as Primitive Ventures remind that the degree of market bubble is intensifying, and caution is needed regarding the risks of downward deleveraging.
**Summary**: Institutional Ethereum reserves have surpassed 10 million ETH, marking a shift in crypto assets from retail speculation to institutional long-term allocation, which could reshape market pricing logic, but ongoing attention to the macro environment and regulatory dynamics is necessary.
