The decision on the application for the issue of Ethereum-ETF will be made before March 5
The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed its decision on Fidelity's Ethereum ETF application.
Department officials reported that they would need more time to consider the proposal to create a cryptocurrency derivative and related issues, so the regulator postponed the deadline to March 5.
However, Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart doubts that the commission will give the go-ahead for ETH-ETF trading in March. In his opinion, Fidelity will be able to agree with the government on the launch of trading in fund shares no earlier than the end of May.
