Bitwise CEO Katherine Dowling said spot Ethereum ETFs are “near the finish line” while noting that the SEC is “very welcoming” of discussions regarding other products.

On July 9, Dowling told Bloomberg that the SEC and ETF issuers are dealing with fewer issues with each S-1 amendment, pointing to a near launch.

Dowling confirmed that SEC Chairman Gary Gensler had asserted the agency would fully approve issuers' registration statements over the summer but described the time frame as remaining open. She said:

“You know, everyone has a different definition of summer. It has been a long and hot summer for publishers waiting…”

Dowling said Bitwise intends to differentiate itself from other candidates, including giants like BlackRock and Fidelity, as a “crypto expert” with many years of focus on the field.

Bitwise submitted its most recent amendment on July 3, while many other applicants submitted the July 8 deadline. Applicants must still add certain details, including funding fees, in future modifications.

The SEC welcomes further discussions

Dowling also said Bitwise has been in communication with the SEC about potential new products “on the way.” She described the conversations positively, saying:

“I think our communication with the SEC on the prospects of these products has been really welcoming.”

However, she agrees with Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas that some products may only be approved under the leadership of a new SEC chairman.

Otherwise, she said, it could take quite a while to bring products to market due to the history of prior product approvals and the lack of future markets underpinning potential products. power.

Dowling does not identify the products in question. Currently, the only spot crypto ETFs pending are the Solana Spot ETFs from VanEck and 21Shares.
