Cathie Wood, founder of ARK Investment Management, has expressed skepticism regarding the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) stance on approving spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) following cryptocurrencies beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Wood’s sentiment was echoed in her recent remarks on WSJ’s Take On the Week podcast: “We’d be surprised to see anything but Bitcoin and Ether being approved by the SEC.”
Franklin Templeton Joins the ETF Race
This sentiment follows Franklin Templeton’s recent filing with the SEC for approval to launch a spot Ethereum ETF. If approved, the filing, submitted on February 12, would be listed as the “Franklin Ethereum ETF” on the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
The filing states that Franklin Templeton plans to stake a portion of the ETF’s Ether for additional income, similar to strategies outlined in ARK 21Shares’ recent applications.
