This would allow fund managers to earn income from locking assets for investors without requiring a minimum of 32 ETH.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, corporate treasuries are <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/corporations-amass-over-4-million-eth-worth-17-6-billion\">rapidly acquiring Ethereum<\/a>. About 10 public companies hold ETH on their balance sheets, amounting to 2.3% of the current available supply.
