Ethereum is solidifying its position as the leading blockchain infrastructure for institutions, bolstered by Layer-2 solutions like Linea. SharpLink Gaming has invested $200 million in ETH on Linea, utilizing staking and EigenCloud AVS for institutional returns, with Anchorage Digital Bank providing compliance and custody services. The Ethereum Foundation has launched institutions.ethereum.org to facilitate onboarding for traditional enterprises, underscoring Ethereum's dominance in real-world assets, DeFi, and stablecoins. Institutional inflows to Ethereum exceeded those to Bitcoin in Q3 2025, driven by its PoS model and DeFi innovations, marking a new growth phase for Ethereum.
