Why Analysts Rate Approval Odds Above 90% for New Altcoin ETFs

Bloomberg analysts James Seyffart and Eric Balchunas predict a 90% or higher chance that The Securities and Exchange Commission's will approve most pending spot crypto ETF applications by the end of 2025. This is a significant increase from their previous odds, which were below 90%. The improved outlook follows a leadership shift at the SEC, with Paul Atkins taking over as chairman in April 2025, signaling a friendlier stance towards digital assets. Analysts cite enhanced "positive engagement" from the SEC, such as requests for issuers of spot Solana ETFs to amend their filings, as a major reason for optimism. The political climate, including President Trump's lenient approach to crypto, is also influencing the regulatory atmosphere. The surge in asset manager applications from major firms like BlackRock, Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, VanEck, and Grayscale indicates a robust market demand and increasing institutional confidence.

Institutional banks like JPMorgan and Standard Chartered forecast up to $8 billion in first-year inflows for XRP ETFs, signaling significant institutional interest in altcoins.

What factors could influence the timing of their approval or launch

The success of Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs, with $100+ billion in assets under management, has boosted confidence in the expansion to altcoins. Bloomberg analysts believe the SEC's increased engagement, evolving regulatory environment, and mounting pressure from stakeholders could accelerate acceptance. Market readiness is also a factor, with positive odds for Solana spot at 90%-95% by year-end.
