In terms of digital currency, this week the U.S. SEC is expected to announce the final decision on VanEck's ETH Spot ETF on May 23rd local time, which has attracted great attention from the market. From the volatility pricing of the options market, it can be seen that the ATM Vol of ETH 24 MAY has continued to rise in the past few days and formed a local high point. The overall level is also 5-10% Vol higher than BTC. The slope of the term is also flatter due to the higher Vol Premium at the front end. This will undoubtedly be an important moment for the cryptocurrency community. Although the market is relatively optimistic about the approval of the ETH ETF, the recent weak trend of ETH seems to suggest that the market has digested the rejection of Ethereum this time. Analysts believe that the approval of the ETH ETF is expected to be achieved next year, which will provide investors with more investment opportunities and promote the development of the entire crypto industry.
