For more than three decades, Stradley Ronon and Franklin Templeton have worked together to achieve novel industry approvals and launch new products. We are pleased to congratulate the Franklin Templeton team on yet another milestone. Today, the Franklin Ethereum ETF began trading — one of several spot ether ETFs to receive listing approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Stradley Ronon served as a counsel on the formation, registration, listing and launch of this new digital asset exchange-traded product. Congratulations to the team: partners Steve Feinour, Miranda Sturgis, Kenneth Greenberg, Joel Corriero, Tom Hanley, Kenneth Wang and Dean Krishna, and associates Wesley Davis, Rebecca Rodrigues and Rachel Charamella. #StradleyProud https://bit.ly/3xYomo5

UPDATED: All spot Ethereum ETF applicants filed updated S-1's. . . • Grayscale • BlackRock • Fidelity • Franklin • VanEck • 21Shares Now, all eyes are on the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The amended filings have led many experts to predict the ETH ETF to launch at some point within the next two weeks. Moreover, the market expects all issuers to follow 21Shares and VanEck in submitting the updated filings. On May 23, the SEC approved spot Ether ETF 19b-4 filings from eight asset managers. The following month, SEC Chair Gary Gensler said approving the S-1 filings was expected to occur “sometime over the course of this summer” but didn't specify a date. https://shorturl.at/0li7j #GMMGNews #cryptonews #SpotETF #EthereumETF #TradingCommunity

The completion of the amended filings by all major Ethereum spot ETF applicants, including Fidelity, VanEck, Franklin Templeton, 21Shares, Grayscale, and BlackRock, marks a significant milestone in the push for regulatory approval of such ETFs in the U.S. The SEC's initial rejection and subsequent request for resubmission by July 8th highlight the meticulous scrutiny these financial products are under. This collective move by leading financial institutions to meet the resubmission deadline underlines their commitment to navigating the regulatory landscape and potentially paves the way for the introduction of Ethereum spot ETFs, pending SEC review and approval. This could have significant implications for the broader acceptance and institutional investment in Ethereum.

Many think that #ethereum will take centre stage in 2024. Spot ETH ETF filings in the US from BlackRock and ARK Investment Management LLC/ 21.co and increasing tokenization activity taking place on the Ethereum network all add credence to this thesis. At CF Benchmarks we have recently launched our CF ETH Staking Index series, giving the institutions all the tools required to replicate the staking reward, generating returns whilst minimize risks for investors: https://lnkd.in/eX4SBG6T

👀 Five key points to watch for this week's BTC spot ETF: 1) Management fees competition (BlackRock, Grayscale, Fidelity, Invesco). 2) Approval by SEC for 19b-4s and S-1. 3) Post-launch fund inflow and rumored investments (BlackRock, Arc Invest). 4) GBTC conversion to ETF and its potential AUM impact. 5) Marketing strategies from management companies (Bitwise, Hashdex, VanEck, etc.). 🚀📈 #BitcoinETF 🌐

In a recent Ignites article, Alfred Wilkinson mentions that two of our valued clients, Ark Invest, in collaboration with 21Shares, have amended their proposed spot Ether ETF by removing the staking feature, aligning with current regulatory expectations. This amendment to the Form S-1, expertly filed by the EA tEAm, represents a strategic step forward. The Ark 21Shares Ethereum ETF, first filed in September last year, is designed to trade on the Cboe Global Markets BZX Exchange, tracking Ether's performance against the CME CF Ether-Dollar Reference Rate—New York Variant. At EA, we are proud to support Ark Invest and 21Shares in navigating the regulatory landscape and advancing their strategic objectives.

Black Rock and Fidelity Ethereum ETF Plans are Rebuffed by the SEC While commentators continue to suggest that May is the month to watch, the SEC has once again postponed deciding on the spot Ethereum ETF applications from Black Rock and Fidelity. The decision by BlackRock and Fidelity to accept or reject their spot Ether ETH tickers down $3,722 exchange-traded funds (ETFs) has been postponed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC indicated in two different filings on March 4th that it would postpone deciding on the applications filed by Fidelity for its Ethereum Fund and BlackRock for its iShares Ethereum Trust. https://lnkd.in/g89F8zDk
