The Trump administration may allow staking options for Ethereum (ETH) spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), The Block reported, citing multiple analysts. Currently, ETH spot ETFs do not offer staking options. “Staking is likely to gain the necessary regulatory clarity under the new administration, opening the door to wider adoption including institutional participation,” said Ruslan Lienkha, market analyst at crypto platform YouHodler. Bernstein analysts also predicted that the overall crypto staking yields may rise if there’s a crypto-friendly regulatory environment. “Current ETH spot ETFs do not offer staking, so there is likely demand for products that provide stakers yield for both institutional and retail investors,” said Steven Goldfeder, CEO of Offchain Labs, the developer of Arbitrum (ARB). ```
