U.S SEC Is Reportedly Ready To Consider Ethereum Futures ETF Applications
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) seems to have softened its stance on exchange-traded funds focusing on Ethereum futures contracts. The securities regulator is reportedly inclined to consider the Ether Futures ETFs following several applications by TradFi and crypto players over the past week.

On July 28, Volatility Shares submitted an application for its Ether Strategy ETF. The application was followed by similar filings from VanEck, ProShares, Grayscale, Bitwise, and Roundhill. The funds submitted applications to offer their own versions of Ethereum Futures ETFs.
