Ether and other digital assets need better regulation, and this narrative might improve with the upcoming U.S. elections. Ether (ETH) spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), once approved, could see significant demand, similar to Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs but on a smaller scale.

Market Demand for Ether ETFs

Broker Bernstein highlighted that ETH spot ETFs may not witness as much spot ETH conversion due to the absence of an ETH staking feature. Analysts Gautam Chhugani and Mahika Sapra noted that the basis trade—buying the spot ETF and selling the futures contract—should gain traction over time, contributing to healthy liquidity in the ETF market.

SEC Approval and Regulatory Filings

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently approved key regulatory filings, bringing Ether ETFs closer to availability for investors. ETH is strengthening its use-case as a primary tokenization platform for stablecoin payments and tokenizing traditional assets and funds.

Impact of U.S. Elections

Bernstein anticipates that the narrative around digital assets will improve around the U.S. elections, especially with the growing odds of a Republican victory and former President Trump’s pro-crypto stance. This shift could lead to a more favorable regulatory environment for Ether and other digital assets.

Structural Adoption Cycle

Despite the recent market pullback, the structural adoption cycle for digital assets remains strong. Wall Street giant JPMorgan noted that while Ether ETFs are likely to see lower demand than Bitcoin ETFs due to Bitcoin’s first-mover advantage, Ether’s robust use-cases still make it a valuable asset.

Conclusion

The approval of Ether ETFs and an improved regulatory regime could significantly impact the digital asset market. As the U.S. elections approach, the narrative around Ether and other digital assets is likely to evolve, potentially leading to increased adoption and market growth.
