Matrixport： In 2025, Ethereum may require ETF issuers to create more attractive narratives to boost prices

Odaily Planet Daily News: Matrixport released today's chart stating that in 2024, Ethereum's performance was unsatisfactory, and its weak performance clearly began after the launch of the Ethereum ETF, with capital inflows far below market expectations. Meanwhile, on July 31, 2024, Senator Loomis proposed the Bitcoin Act, suggesting that Bitcoin be positioned as a strategic reserve asset. In contrast, Bitcoin has successfully established its position as a "digital gold" and potential reserve asset, while Ethereum lacks a similarly strong and attractive narrative among traditional financial (TradFi) investors. The lack of clear application scenarios may be one of the core reasons for Ethereum's poor performance. Looking ahead, ETF issuers may need to take on the responsibility of creating and promoting a more attractive narrative for Ethereum by 2025. Without additional support and market positioning, relying solely on Ethereum itself may be difficult to bridge the gap with Bitcoin.
