Staking in Ethereum ETFs Might Be a Question of When, Not If
Summary
Eight new spot ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) launched this week without staking income. The Grayscale Ethereum Trust saw outflows, while BlackRock's ETFs received $800 million in deposits. The SEC advised against staking due to potential securities law violations. Industry leaders hope for regulatory changes under the new administration. Trump's support for crypto could influence the timing of staking approval. Fidelity and Franklin Templeton initially planned to include staking but started without it to ease approval. The future inclusion of staking depends on regulatory clarity.
