#blackRock is pushing ahead with plans for a staked Ethereum ETF.

According to a revised filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the firm has begun accumulating $ETH for its proposed iShares Ethereum Trust.

The ETF structure includes staking, with estimated annual yields near 3% based on early 2026 projections. The filing notes that approximately 18% of staking rewards would be allocated between BlackRock and Coinbase, alongside a 0.25% expense ratio.

If approved, the fund would offer institutional investors exposure to staked $ETH and passive income generation without the need to manage wallets directly—building on the success of BlackRock’s earlier Bitcoin ETF launch.$ETH
