CoinVoice recently learned that according to Cointelegraph, Bitwise Chief Compliance Officer Katherine Dowling said that the issues in the S-1 document have been repeatedly discussed between the SEC and potential ETF issuers, and the problems have become "less and less." The list of eight Ethereum spot ETFs is about to go online, and all signs indicate that we are close to the finish line of issuance. Several spot Ethereum ETF issuers have been waiting for six weeks for the SEC to sign their S-1 registration statements.
Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan speculated that an Ethereum spot ETF could attract as much as $15 billion in inflows in the first 18 months of being open for trading — roughly the same amount that the spot Bitcoin ETF attracted in the six months since its launch.
Dowling revealed that the SEC is also open to discussions about non-Bitcoin and Ethereum products. “We have actually had conversations with the SEC about the possibility of new product launches, and the communication about the prospects of these products is actually very welcome.”
Dowling said: "Some new products may need to wait for the approval of the new SEC chairman, but this is a positive dialogue." The Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) submitted a spot listing application for Solana (SOL) ETF on behalf of VanEck and 21Shares on July 8. [Original link]
