SPOT ETHEREUM ETFS GET GREEN LIGHT FROM SEC!
Hey #ETH fam! I've got some exciting news to share with you all!
After weeks of uncertainty, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has finally approved the registration statements for several spot #Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs). This means that investors will soon be able to gain exposure to ETH through these ETFs.
Firms like 21Shares, Bitwise, BlackRock, Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, VanEck, and Invesco Galaxy have received the go-ahead to launch their spot Ethereum ETFs. The Grayscale Ethereum Trust and the Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust also got the green light on Monday.
According to 21Shares' co-founder Ophelia Snyder, this approval marks a significant milestone for the company and for U.S. investors. She believes that this is further proof that crypto as an asset class is here to stay!
Fidelity's head of Digital Asset Management, Cynthia Lo Bessette, also weighed in on the news. She said that Fidelity's spot Ethereum ETF will allow investors to gain exposure to ether through thoughtful index and product design supported by a dedicated operations and trading team.
The approval of spot Ethereum ETFs is expected to attract lower demand than Bitcoin ETFs, but still has the potential to bring in billions of dollars.
