The Beacon Deposit contract of ETH2 currently holds over 72.4 million ETH — about 60% of the total supply of Ethereum — making it the largest entity holding ETH, according to Arkham Intelligence. This staking contract secures the Ethereum network and surpasses any other individual or organization. Among individuals, early investor Rain Lohmus holds 250,000 ETH, followed by co-founder Vitalik Buterin with approximately 240,000 ETH.

Large organizations include Binance with 4.09 million ETH and BlackRock with 3.94 million ETH through the Ethereum ETF. Exchanges like Coinbase, Robinhood, Kraken, OKX, and Bitfinex also hold large reserves. The U.S. government owns about 60,000 ETH from criminal seizures, while old hacker wallets like Gatecoin still hold large amounts. Layer-2 networks such as Arbitrum, Base, and WETH contracts contribute millions of ETH, indicating that staking, exchanges, and bridges are currently dominating the distribution of Ethereum.
