Spot Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) can reach $10 billion in assets under management in their first year of trading. Katalin Tischhauser, Head of Investment Research at Sygnum Bank, stated in an interview with Cointelegraph that these predictions are based on her predictions for spot Bitcoin ETFs. Tischhauser, who estimates that Bitcoin ETF inflows will be between $30 billion and $50 billion in the first 12 months, said that Ethereum products will follow a similar path.
Stating that the rate of adoption of Ethereum will be slower due to its less awareness, Tischhauser stated that Ethereum's market value is one-third of Bitcoin and therefore he expects inflows to be in the range of 15-35% compared to Bitcoin. This results in an estimate of $5 billion to $10 billion for the first year.
Ether ETFs offer significant advantages for traditional investors. Tischhauser noted that investors can easily access Ether because ETFs are a regulated and familiar product. He also emphasized that Ethereum has more applications and uses compared to Bitcoin.
Stating that the ETH price has not increased yet due to ETF inflows being lower than expected, Tischhauser said that positive surprises will have a strong impact on the price. Predicting that ETH prices could reach $6,000, Tischhauser stated that this would increase market sensitivity and create demand shocks.
