Crypto Market Awaits SEC Verdict: Ethereum ETF Approval Speculations
Amidst regulatory anticipation, market analysts are eagerly awaiting the Securities and Exchange Commission’s decision to approve or disapprove an Ethereum exchange-traded fund. Speculations have emerged regarding the potential approval, sending major waves through financial circles.
Thenceforth, Fox Business’ Senior Correspondent Charles Gasparino has weighed in on the outcome’s potential implications for Ethereum and the larger cryptocurrency market.
What are Gasparino’s beliefs if ETH ETF is approved?
Charles Gasparino, a well-known financial journalist, gave context to the potential SEC approval of the ETH ETF, referring to it as a potential “regulatory 180” and an indication of the crypto community’s growing power. Gasparino pointed out that initial indications from SEC Chairman Gary Gensler would have indicated that he was skeptical regarding Ethereum, even hinting at classifying it as a security. However, with recent developments, including advocacy efforts led by figures like John Deaton, the report is that regulatory sentiment has been swayed.
Highlighting the constantly changing regulatory landscape surrounding cryptocurrencies and how investor sentiment was consequently affected, in case the ETF gets approved, it could be a defining moment for Ethereum to cement its place as an investment asset and likely gain significant interest from institutional investors.
But Victor has different views
Popular crypto analyst and industry observer Victor expressed contradictory views, warning of overestimating the immediate market response to the ETF approval.
He pointed out the more muted initial reaction after the approval of Bitcoin ETFs, adding that the price movement after the news would fluctuate in the weeks and months after. He noted that market dynamics were very complex, and several factors can be involved in driving price action—something that will depend on the timing of ETF trading and the comparative inflows of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.
Though the approval decision was uncertain, Victor was cautiously optimistic, expecting a bullish reaction for Ethereum if approval had been achieved.
