Eight Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are nearing launch, according to Bitwise's Chief Compliance Officer, Katherine Dowling. The exact launch date remains unknown, but the SEC's recent approval of several 19b-4 filings and positive feedback on amended S-1 registration statements point towards a summer release. Bitwise's Chief Investment Officer, Matt Hougan, predicts these ETFs could attract up to $15 billion in inflows in the first 18 months of trading. Dowling also revealed the SEC is open to discussions about non-Bitcoin and Ether products.
