On July 23, the launch of Ethereum ETFs generated considerable buzz in the cryptocurrency sector.

Bitwise Asset Management’s Matt Hougan praised the impressive debut of these ETFs, suggesting it could pave the way for similar products, such as a Solana ( SOL ) ETF.

Hougan observed that the Ether ETFs, including Bitwise’s own ETH ETF, had a standout first day, drawing over $200 million in investments for ETHW alone. Overall, trading volumes exceeded $500 million, marking a significant achievement compared to average ETF launches.

The enthusiasm surrounding the Ethereum ETFs hints at a broader shift in crypto investments. Hougan anticipates that by 2025, the market will see a diverse range of crypto and index-based ETFs. Additionally, filings for a Solana ETF by VanEck and 21Shares suggest other altcoins might soon follow.

Looking forward, Hougan expects a surge in institutional investment in both Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Analysts project that Ether ETFs could attract over $10 billion in the first year. The SEC’s approval of Ethereum ETFs also fuels speculation about future ETF launches for other cryptocurrencies, potentially including Solana and XRP by 2025.
