It aims to provide banks and asset management firms with a single point of contact for entering the Ethereum ecosystem, covering Ethereum, Layer 2 networks, and their application stack.
Ethereum Institutional was founded by David Walsh, Marius Smith, and Matthew Dawson. It was initially incubated within the Ethereum Foundation before becoming an independent operation. The organization states it does not charge advisory or consulting fees and operates under a non-profit structure to avoid favoring specific vendors or products.
