Following reports that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission may soon permit the debut of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that utilize ether futures, the price of ether increased by almost 11% to $1,700. The regulator does not appear to be planning to deny the proposals of nearly twelve companies that have recently filed to introduce Ether futures ETFs according to a Bloomberg report from August 17 that cited unnamed sources with knowledge of the situation.

Although officials said that some of the files may be accepted by as early as October, it is still unknown which ETF applications the SEC will approve. The SEC's decision to authorize Ether futures ETFs didn't surprise ETF expert Eric Balchunas, who said that the move demonstrates how the regulator's opinions on various products, like a spot Bitcoin ETF, can evolve over time. Since late July, more than 12 submissions for such products have been made with the SEC, flooding the authority with requests for Ether futures ETFs.
