<p>The <a href="https://www.monochrome.au/products/monochrome-ethereum-etf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Monochrome Ethereum ETF</a>, also known as IETH, started with total assets reaching $176,600, which is about 262,500 Australian dollars, by 2:00 PM local time. This fund charges a management fee of 0.50%, which is how much investors pay to have their money managed. It allows investors to buy or sell shares using either cash or Ether, making it flexible for different types of investors. Plus, it’s the only ETF in Australia that gives investors dual access to Ether.</p> 
<p>The team behind this new ETF, Monochrome Asset Management, had previously <a href="https://www.monochrome.au/products/monochrome-bitcoin-etf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">launched</a> a spot Bitcoin ETF in June, called IBTC. This fund has done well, collecting almost $10.7 million, or 16 million Australian dollars.</p>

<p>Jeff Yew, the CEO of Monochrome Asset Management, believes that the demand for spot crypto ETFs will only grow in Australia. He mentioned that more people are moving their crypto from exchanges into funds like ETFs. This is like taking your toys out of a messy playroom and putting them neatly on a shelf! By doing this, investors feel more secure about their assets.</p> 
<h5><strong>More About IETH</strong></h5> 
<p>Yew pointed out that the Australian market is different from others and has a lot of potential for ETFs. He sees it as having “a bigger pie to carve out,” meaning there’s plenty of room for growth in this area.</p> 
<p><a href="https://www.bitgo.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BitGo</a> and Gemini, two trusted names in cryptocurrency, are the custodians of the Monochrome Ethereum ETF. This means they help keep the Ether safe and secure. State Street Australia is also involved as the fund administrator, ensuring everything runs smoothly.</p> 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> 
 <p dir="ltr" lang="en">Today, we welcome <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24IETH&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">$IETH</a> to market.<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.0.3/72x72/1f44f.png" alt="👏" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;"></p> 
 <p>The Monochrome Ethereum ETF is Australia’s first ETF to hold ETH directly.</p> 
 <p>Like IBTC, IETH features an in-kind subscription and redemption facility, enabling investors to transfer their ETH in/out of IETH.</p>

<p>For many investors, ETFs are an easier way to enter the crypto world. They can buy shares in the fund, just like buying stocks, without needing to worry about storing <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/ethereum" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ETH</a> themselves. This could help more people get their feet wet in cryptocurrency, making it a more familiar and accessible investment.</p>
