Ethereum spot ETFs are expected to start trading on July 2, earlier than the predicted September launch.
The SEC’s quick response request indicates readiness for Ether ETFs’ trading initiation before the holiday weekend.
Spot Ethereum ETFs will allow investors direct exposure to Ethereum’s price movements in a regulated format.
Ethereum spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are gearing up to hit the trading floors as early as July 2. This news comes as a pleasant surprise, significantly ahead of the previously anticipated September launch.
Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas shed light on this accelerated timeline, noting that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued “pretty light” comments on the S-1 applications. The SEC’s swift request for responses within a week signals a green light for the Ether ETFs’ trading commencement right before the holiday weekend.
UPDATE: we are moving up our over/under date for the launch of spot Ether ETF to July 2nd, hearing the Staff sent issuers comments on S-1s today, and they're pretty light, nothing major, asking for them back in a week. Decent chance they work to declare them effective the next… https://t.co/XJZ8JLwEFF
