The interest from institutional investors has grown. Notably, in July 2024, U.S. regulators approved several spot Ethereum ETFs, including BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust—marking a major milestone for regulated access for traditional investors.
Ethereum’s co-founder Vitalik Buterin remains a central figure in the ongoing evolution. In May 2025, he convened with leading developers to discuss the network’s future, focusing on scalability, rollups, and next-generation upgrades.
One upcoming milestone, the Pectra upgrade (expected in mid-2025), promises to enhance validator performance, reduce hardware demands, and streamline user accounts—making Ethereum more accessible and efficient.
