Ethereum ETFs Set to Launch in May 2024
SEC Approves Applications from CBOE, Nasdaq, and NYSE
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved applications from three exchanges, namely CBOE, Nasdaq, and NYSE, to list ether ETFs. The decision, which was announced on May 23, 2024, affects funds proposed by various companies, including Grayscale Investments and VanEck.
Ethereum Upgrades and Market Sentiment
The approval comes amidst anticipation for the upcoming Ethereum upgrades, known as Shanghai and Constantinople, which are expected to go live in the first quarter of 2024. These upgrades are expected to bring significant improvements to the network, including the ability for users to withdraw their staked ether.
Market sentiment regarding the SEC's decision has been mixed. While some analysts believe that the approval could boost the cryptocurrency market, others have pointed to the declining odds of approval in the past.
Despite the uncertainty, the upcoming Ethereum ETFs have generated considerable interest among investors. They represent a new way to gain exposure to the second-largest cryptocurrency in the world, which has a market capitalization of over $300 billion.
