2026 is starting with some inklings that the cryptocurrency universe could deliver better returns this year than it did in 2025. If true, scores of advisors and retail investors will likely access digital currencies via ETFs. On that note, some new kids on the block worth considering include the NEOS Ethereum High Income ETF (NEHI). NEHI, which launched on December 3, brings high income to ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency behind only bitcoin.
NEHI is an options-based, income-generating play on ethereum in actively managed form. The rookie ETF may be able to harness more of ethereum’s upside — a crucial consideration when examining covered call ETFs. Speaking of ether’s upside prospects…
Ether is one of the most widely discussed digital currencies. That could put some attention on NEHI this year as investors look to marry income with crypto.
“One main reason why the Ethereum price may rebound this year is because of the aggressive purchases by BitMine, the company that Tom Lee runs,” reported Invezz. “BitMine has been the most aggressive Ethereum buyers in the past few months. It has bought 278,551 coins in the last 30 days, bringing its total purchases to 4.14 million coins worth over $13 billion.”
To be sure, BitMine’s affinity for ether and the related bullish chatter are well known factors in the cryptocurrency’s price equation. Fortunately for investors considering NEHI, there are other catalysts that could lift the digital currency this year.
“The other bullish catalyst for the Ethereum price is that the developers will implement the Glamsterdam and Hegota upgrades later this year. These will be the most important upgrades after the developers implemented the Fusaka upgrade in December,” according to Invezz.
Previous network upgrades have served as price sparks for ether. For investors mulling ether and NEHI, there’s good news. The network, upgrades aside, is expanding. For example, several major financial services are using the Ethereum network — a trend that’s expected to gain momentum over time, signaling long-term growth for decentralized finance (DeFi).
“The other notable catalyst forthe Ethereum price is that the network’s market share continues growing in key areas. The most important one in all this is in the real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, where its assets jumped to over $12 billion,” concluded Invezz.
