In his recent post, Sun noted that several factors need the provision of proper information for the crypto market’s progress.

This would potentially contribute to enlightening the regulatory agencies for better decisions in the future.

He asserted that the entire industry has been endeavoring to make the regulators understand the potential of this sector. However, he made one thing clear the market is currently far from getting instant approval for the Ethereum ETFs.
DTCC’s Listing of Franklin Templeton Application Doesn’t Ensure the ETF Approval by the SEC
On the other hand, the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation has officially listed the spot ETF application of Franklin Templeton. Nonetheless, the respective listing does not ensure the authorization of the spot ETH ETF application by the US SEC. Normally, the DTCC lists the qualified securities on its website for settlement and trading. They take into account the exchange-traded funds that have accomplished certain compliance and registration procedures.
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission has postponed the decision for the ETF application of Franklin Templeton till June 11. This grants the agency to prolong the evaluation period for another 45 days before the decision. Additionally, top players like ARK Invest, VanEck, BlackRock, and Grayscale are also competing to get approvals for spot ETH ETFs. Hence, despite the speculations, it remains to be seen if the regulator will approve the ETH ETFs anytime soon.
