Q3 2025 iEthereum Digital Commodity Index Report

Letter from the Editor

As the heat of summer fades and autumn’s crisp air settles in, we can feel change all around us. Leaves turn color, dew clings to the grass in the morning, and harvest fills our barns and cellars with the fruits of a season’s labor. Yet alongside this natural rhythm of transition, there is another kind of change in the air—an unmistakable sense that our economic, financial, and currency systems are shifting beneath our feet.

The United States remains a place of immense strength and potential unity, but the cracks in the system are widening. Inflation has turned basic necessities—food, housing, energy—into luxuries for too many. Faith in politicians and oligarchs has withered; the old promises ring hollow. What remains is a growing hunger for sound money and a demand for systems that work for people, not against them.

The signs of strain are everywhere: threats of nuclear escalation abroad, a domestic security state expanding at home, laws applied unequally, and a political class more distant than ever from those it presumes to govern. It is a season of distrust, and also of awakening.

This quarter, iEthereum stands in contrast to the chaos. Immutable, finite, and transparent, it does not bend to the whims of oligarchs or institutions. Like the autumn harvest, it represents value that has been patiently growing—quietly ripening in the background while the noise of the world rages on. In times when the old order falters, a digital commodity such as iEthereum offers something rare: stability through simplicity, honesty through immutability, and possibility through neutrality.

As we turn the page on Q3 2025, the metaphor of autumn is clear: this is both an ending and a beginning. The old leaves must fall for new growth to emerge. In the chill of uncertainty lies the promise of renewal. iEthereum’s role in this unfolding season is not to shout but to endure, to remind us that value, once rooted in principle, does not decay with the passing storms.

Executive Summary – Q3 2025 iEthereum Digital Commodity Index Report

The third quarter of 2025 marked a period of measured growth and structural consolidation for iEthereum. iEthereum showed resilience through consolidation and measured growth. Circulating supply contracted quarter-over-quarter, signaling accumulation and a closing window of opportunity. Market capitalization expanded across USD, Ethereum, Bitcoin, Monero, Gold, and Hex benchmarks, reflecting both pair strength and consistent demand. Wallet holders and median balances rose slightly, though widening distribution indicates growing concentration among top holders. Fundamental value metrics based on Metcalfe’s Law, adoption, and store-of-value models advanced modestly, with aggregate value up but per-token fundamentals adjusting downward due to supply contraction. Together, these trends reinforce iEthereum’s trajectory as an emerging immutable digital commodity in a tightening market.

Circulating Supply
While circulating supply increased modestly during September, the quarter as a whole saw a net decline. This pattern suggests that iEthereum is increasingly being accumulated and removed from active market circulation. The trend points toward a consolidation phase—a window of opportunity for accumulation that may be narrowing.

Market Capitalization and Pair Valuations
iEthereum’s market capitalization expanded in terms of multiple benchmarks: USD, Ethereum, Bitcoin, Monero, Gold, and Hex. This growth is attributed to both the relative strengthening of these pairs and sustained demand for iEthereum itself. The quarter demonstrated iEthereum’s ability to track upward across diverse asset classes, reinforcing its position as a neutral, commodity-like digital instrument.

Wallet Distribution and Holdings
The number of iEthereum wallet holders continued its upward trajectory, albeit modestly. Median wallet holdings also rose slightly, suggesting incremental broadening of ownership. However, standard deviation in wallet holdings increased, highlighting a widening gap between large holders and smaller participants. This distributional shift may foreshadow concentration effects or strategic accumulation among top-tier holders.

Fundamental Value Metrics
Valuation models based on Metcalfe’s Law, growth adoption, and store-of-value frameworks all advanced modestly over the quarter. Aggregate fundamental market capitalization rose, yet fundamental value per token declined due to reduced circulating supply relative to the previous quarter. This dynamic underscores a paradox: while the network’s aggregate value expanded, the per-token measure adjusted downward as supply contraction altered proportional distribution.

Conclusion
Q3 2025 positions iEthereum as an asset in transition—simultaneously consolidating supply, broadening adoption, and strengthening its role as a store of value across asset pairings. The quarter’s indicators suggest a tightening market structure, with long-term fundamentals continuing to align toward iEthereum’s thesis as an immutable digital commodity.
