The much-anticipated arrival of spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US seems to be hitting a snag. Industry leaders are voicing growing concerns about the likelihood of securing regulatory approval from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), with a deafening silence from the agency fueling anxieties.
Jan van Eck, CEO of investment firm VanEck, recently cast a shadow of doubt on the possibility of SEC approval for spot Ether ETFs in May. In a CNBC interview, van Eck expressed his belief that their application would likely be rejected, citing a complete lack of communication from the regulatory body.
This sentiment finds an echo in the words of Eric Balchunas, a Senior Bloomberg ETF analyst, who has significantly downgraded his odds of approval to a mere 35%. Balchunas attributes this pessimism to the ongoing “radio silence” between the SEC and fund issuers.
Nice scoop from @joelight. Def interesting but no change our odds. As we’ve said, need SEC
