Investors grew increasingly optimistic about the SEC approving spot ether exchange-traded fund applications. This renewed optimism propelled the cryptocurrency to new heights, with Ether (ETH) soaring approximately 20% over Monday and Tuesday.
According to Bloomberg analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart, as quoted on Yahoo Finance, the odds that the SEC might approve spot ETH ETFs skyrocketed to 75% from the previously anticipated 20%, boosting investor confidence.
Crypto Market Set to Get a Lift on SEC Approval
According to Yahoo Finance, the approval of the SEC will be a milestone in the cryptocurrency market, potentially paving the way for substantial institutional capital inflow in the market.
According to Reuters, data released recently showed that in the first quarter of 2024, global venture capital investment in cryptocurrency startups increased to $2.4 billion, suggesting a possible resurgence of investor interest. After approval of spot ETH ETFs, investor interest may be turned up a notch, resulting in a rallying crypto market.
Ether Likely to Gain on Bitcoin’s Growth
After the SEC approved several spot Bitcoin ETFs earlier this year, the price of Bitcoin saw a huge surge that attracted billions of dollars in investments, surging 67% in value. The approval for spot ETH ETF could also see a surge in the value of the digital currency.
Even though a spot ETF has not been approved, Ether has increased by about 59% since the start of 2024. This implies that the digital asset may have additional upward momentum in the event that the SEC renders a positive verdict.
