The SEC Anticipation for Ethereum (ETH) ETFs
The crypto community is filled with excitement as analyst James Seyffart predicts a 60% chance of the SEC approving Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The SEC may follow a similar strategy to Spot Bitcoin ETFs, initially rejecting before approving the final deadline of 23rd May 24. Even Bloomberg analysts agree that the SEC’s denial and approval game could cause the market to tumble.
Insights From Industry Experts and Reports
According to Scott Melker, Seyffart believes that despite the SEC’s initial delay, Ethereum ETF approval is likely. Reports from TD Cowen suggest a potential delay until 2025 or 2026, aligning with the SEC’s cautious approach in the current U.S. political climate.
Delay or Approval? Analyst See’s 60% Chance
Seyffart is less confident in Ethereum ETF approval than Bitcoin ETFs, with odds around 60%. The decision will extend beyond Ethereum and impact the entire crypto market. The approval of Bitcoin ETFs notably influenced Bitcoin’s price, and a similar response is expected for Ethereum after ETF approval.
Awaiting the SEC Decision, does ETH Hang in the Balance?
The industry eagerly awaits the SEC’s decision, anticipating a potential milestone for Ethereum and restoring investors’ faith in the regulatory body. If approved, Ethereum ETFs could significantly impact ETH’s price, similar to Bitcoin’s movements before BTC ETF approval. Seyffart suggests Ethereum’s value could surge, potentially reaching $4,000.
Hot Take: The Road Ahead for Ethereum (ETH) ETFs
The industry is hopeful for Ethereum ETF approval, as experts and analysts anticipate the potential impact and future value surge if the SEC gives the green light.
