After a long wait, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has finally approved 8 spot Ether ETF applications.
In a May 23 filing, the SEC approved the 19b-4 applications from VanEck, BlackRock, Fidelity, Grayscale, Franklin Templeton, ARK 21Shares, Invesco Galaxy, and Bitwise.
SEC's approval, Ethereum's price surged to $3,950, marking a nearly 1% growth within 24 hours, though it later settled around $3,806.
The SEC's approval of spot Ether ETFs signals potential future ETF approvals for cryptocurrencies like XRP, Solana, and Shiba Inu.
Shiba Inu's lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, hinted at the possibility of a Shiba Inu ETF, generating excitement among the SHIB community.
Following the Ethereum ETF approval, there is growing demand for a Solana ETF due to its popularity and market potential.
