Ethereum Spot ETFs On The Horizon: Regulatory Approval Expected By Fourth Of July: Report
The Securities and Exchange Commission is reportedly on the verge of greenlighting exchange-traded funds linked to the spot price of Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH).
據報道，證券交易委員會正在批准與以太坊（CRYPTO: ETH）現貨價格掛鉤的交易所交易基金。
What Happened: Discussions between asset managers and regulators are nearing their end and the hotly anticipated investment avenues could go up for listing as soon as July 4, a Reuters report indicated Wednesday.
據路透社報道，資產管理公司和監管機構的討論即將結束，備受期待的投資渠道可能會在7月4日之前上市。
Executives from two of the firms anonymously revealed that the process of amending the offering documents is down to resolving minor issues. A lawyer associated with one of the issuers stated that approval is likely just a week or two away.
兩家公司的高管匿名透露，修訂發行文件的過程已經解決了一些小問題。一個與發行人有關的律師表示，批准可能只有一兩個星期的時間。
Eight asset managers, including BlackRock, VanEck, and Grayscale Investments which had previously launched spot Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) ETFs such as iShares Bitcoin Trust (NASDAQ:IBIT), VanEck Bitcoin Trust (BATS:HODL), and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (NYSE:GBTC), are seeking SEC approval for the funds.
包括貝萊德、範艾克和灰度投資在內的八家資產管理公司曾經推出了與比特幣現貨價格掛鉤的ETF，例如iShares比特幣信託基金（NASDAQ:IBIT）、範艾克比特幣信託基金（BATS:HODL）和灰度比特幣信託基金（NYSE:GBTC），目前這些公司正在尋求證券交易委員會批准這些基金。
Why It Matters: The launch of funds tracking the spot price of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) in January was a massive success, attracting about $8 billion in assets. As of late June, these nine new products have nearly $38 billion in assets. However, some ETF and cryptocurrency analysts believe the launch of the new spot ether ETFs will be less impressive due to ether's smaller market cap and trading volumes.
1月份推出跟蹤比特幣現貨價格的基金取得了巨大成功，吸引了約80億美元的資產。截至6月底，這9種新產品的資產幾乎達到了380億美元。然而，一些ETF和加密貨幣分析師認爲，新的以太坊現貨ETF的推出可能會由於以太坊的市值和交易量較小而影響效果。
The latest speculation comes a week after Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas moved up the launch date for the ETFs to July 2. Balchunas had said that there was a "decent chance" the SEC would declare them effective and get it off their plate before the holiday weekend.
就在一週前，彭博ETF分析師埃裏克·巴爾楚納斯（Eric Balchunas）將ETF的推出日期提前到了7月2日。巴爾楚納斯曾表示，證券交易委員會有“相當大的機會”宣佈ETF有效，並在假期前處理完。
In a recent interview, SEC Chair Gary Gensler highlighted the smooth progress of ETF filings He indicated that the final decision lies with asset managers to make full disclosures for the registration statements to go into effect.
在最近的一次採訪中，證券交易委員會主席加里·根斯勒（Gary Gensler）強調，ETF備案工作進展順利。他表示，最終決策取決於資產管理人爲註冊聲明提供充分的披露。
While the enthusiasm was palpable, a few analysts predicted that the launch could potentially lead to a 30% drop in Ether's price.
雖然熱情高漲，但一些分析師預測，新的現貨以太坊ETF的推出可能會導致以太幣價格下跌30%。
Price Action: At the time of writing, Ether was exchanging hands at $3,377.13, following a 1.06% drop in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
截至撰寫本文時，據Benzinga Pro的數據顯示，以太坊價格爲3,377.13美元，過去24小時下跌了1.06%。
