Our governance.

How Ethereum Institutional is established, and who sits on its board.

About the organization.

Ethereum Institutional is an independent non-profit, established as a Swiss association.

We are not the Ethereum Foundation, and we do not speak for the Ethereum protocol. The Foundation stewards the protocol and its properties; we hold the institutional relationship.
