BlackRock’s iShares has submitted an amended S-1 to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a new iShares Staked Ethereum Trust ETF (ticker: ETHB), with plans to list on Nasdaq.
The proposed ETF will:
Primarily hold spot ETH
Be structured as a Texas statutory trust
Maintain grantor trust tax status
Allocate roughly 70%–95% of assets to staking
Use third-party validators such as Coinbase to generate staking rewards
💡 Why it matters
If approved, ETHB could become one of the first U.S. ETFs combining spot exposure + staking yield, potentially boosting institutional demand and adding a new narrative around yield-bearing crypto ETFs.
