Expectations and uncertainty are intertwined as U.S. issuers brace for potential disappointment in their bid to launch exchange-traded funds (ETFs) linked to the price of Ethereum. Recent interactions with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have led these companies to remain pessimistic, suggesting the road ahead is likely to be bumpy for ether-based financial products, Reuters reported.

Interfering with meetings with the SEC

The meeting between the issuer and the SEC provided little reassurance, as agency staff refrained from engaging in substantive discussions about the proposed Ethereum ETF. These meetings stand in stark contrast to the detailed conversations that preceded the approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF earlier this year.

Sources familiar with the discussions, who chose to remain anonymous due to the private nature of the talks, revealed one-sided talks with the SEC, leaving issuers on edge about the fate of their applications.

Ethereum Industry Setbacks

The growing likelihood of an SEC rejection has cast a shadow over the Ethereum industry, which had pinned its hopes on the approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF as a precursor to broader acceptance of cryptocurrency-based financial products. These setbacks highlight the difficulties cryptocurrencies and their peers face gaining mainstream recognition as viable investment assets.

Uncertain regulatory environment

Industry experts speculate that Ethereum ETF approval could be significantly delayed until beyond 2024, with regulatory ambiguity clouding the path forward. Despite the gloomy outlook, some issuers have remained determined to persevere, indicating their intention to file additional public filings with the SEC to extend talks.

Ethereum price forecast

Expectations of a negative outcome from the SEC are reverberating through Ethereum’s price trajectory, putting the cryptocurrency under downward pressure compared to its more prominent counterpart, Bitcoin.

Ethereum has gained a modest 35% in value this year, but is struggling to match Bitcoin’s 48% surge and recent record performance, reflecting market sentiment about the regulatory hurdles it faces.

Legal Issues on the Horizon

If the SEC rejects, industry insiders have floated the possibility of legal relief, potentially leading to judicial intervention leading to the Ethereum ETF’s final approval. Such a scenario would be a pivotal moment at the intersection of cryptocurrencies and regulatory oversight and would set a precedent for future financial products involving digital assets.

The broader cryptocurrency community is closely watching regulatory factors that continue to reshape the digital asset investment landscape, even amid the uncertainty surrounding the Ethereum ETF.
