The Ethereum Foundation has launched a new website, ‘institutions.ethereum.org.’ It aims to provide resources and information for traditional finance (TradFi) institutions interested in the Ethereum ecosystem. The site is set to serve as “The Institutional Liquidity Layer”.
According to the Foundation, the website will provide resources and case studies for builders, leaders, and institutions advancing the global on-chain movement. The new site acts as an informational hub for organizations looking to integrate blockchain-based settlement, tokenization, and infrastructure solutions.

Key Features for Institutional Engagement
The website highlights the critical role of Ethereum and its Layer 2 solutions in asset tokenization. It emphasizes that Real-World Assets (RWAs) and Stablecoins are increasingly being deployed on its ecosystem, with 75% of all on-chain RWAs currently residing there.
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is also a core focus, showcasing Ethereum’s dominance in open financial systems. The platform accounts for over 65% of all blockchain DeFi Total Value Locked (TVL) and consistently sees over $2.89 billion in 24-hour Decentralized Exchange (DEX) volume, based on a 12-month average.
Furthermore, the site addresses the growing needs for confidentiality and control within blockchain applications through its Privacy & Compliance section. This area details options for deploying solutions on the public Mainnet or leveraging enterprise-grade privacy solutions.
The L2 Ecosystem section provides comprehensive information on Layer 2 networks, which are designed to scale Ethereum by offering significantly faster and cheaper transaction processing. Finally, the Live Data section offers real-time metrics on network activity, economic security, and the current market size of stablecoins and DeFi on Ethereum.
Demonstrating Increased Institutional Adoption
The new website showcases the adoption of Ethereum by major global institutions, detailing their specific use cases. For example, BlackRock is actively utilizing the platform for on-chain tokenization through its partnership with Securitize. Coinbase has established its Base Layer 2 ecosystem directly on Ethereum, demonstrating its commitment to the network.
Visa leverages the Ethereum network for its stablecoin payment settlement solutions, indicating its integration into traditional financial infrastructure. Similarly, eToro uses Ethereum as the foundational technology for its stock tokenization platform.
The platform's credibility is further underscored by quotes from executives at prominent firms such as Standard Chartered and BlackRock. These leaders highlight Ethereum’s impressive track record of a decade of uninterrupted uptime and its credible neutrality, positioning it as a trusted and reliable foundation for financial innovation within the TradFi space.
The site also includes a direct contact form, enabling institutions to “Get In Touch” for technical support and to facilitate connections with industry leaders and relevant stakeholders within the Ethereum ecosystem.
