As a seasoned researcher with years of experience in the cryptocurrency market, I find the Ethereum Foundation’s financial report for 2024 both intriguing and reassuring. The foundation’s decision to hold nearly all of its treasury in ETH underscores their unwavering belief in Ethereum’s potential. This long-term perspective, born from years of observing the blockchain industry’s ebb and flow, is a testament to their confidence in the technology they are supporting.
The Ethereum Foundation has made public its 2024 financial report, emphasizing their commitment to maintaining a significant portion, often referred to as the “majority”, of their funds in Ethereum (ETH).
The vast majority of the Ethereum Foundation’s cryptocurrency assets, which amounts to approximately $788.7 million, is invested solely in Ethereum (ETH). This information was disclosed in their recent financial report.
The report from the foundation revealed that on October 31st, they were managing around $970.2 million worth of assets. Of this total, about $788.7 million was invested in cryptocurrencies, while $181.5 million was allocated to non-cryptocurrency investments and holdings.
Our organization predominantly stores its funds in Ether (ETH). This decision reflects our confidence in Ethereum’s future prospects, as our significant ETH holdings underscore our long-term outlook on this digital currency.

Regarding the latest ETH sales, the organization stated its aim is to finance “critical infrastructure needs within the Ethereum community for many years ahead.” This is the reason they chose a “prudent approach to treasury management” that they believe will maintain adequate funds “even during prolonged market slumps.
To maintain enough funds for future years, it’s necessary to occasionally sell ETH. Additionally, during bull markets, we should automatically increase our fiat savings to cover expenses during bear markets.

The report further detailed the budget for 2023, with approximately 30.4%, or around $32.1 million, earmarked for layer-1 research and development projects. This was closely followed by an allocation of about 27.1%, which amounts to roughly $28.6 million, intended for funding new institutions. Notably, this group encompasses grants offered to organizations that contribute significantly to the Ethereum ecosystem.
Currently, Ether (ETH) has performed well, achieving a 16.2% growth over the last week. This surpasses Bitcoin‘s (BTC) 9.4% increase during the same period. At the moment of writing, ETH is being traded at $2,914, which represents a 40% decrease from its peak price of $4,890.
