Breaking Crypto News – Key Factors Behind the $400 Million Losses After Ether ETF Approval Failure

Breaking Crypto News – Over the previous day, the SEC approved multiple Ethereum ETFs based on spot prices, which caused significant volatility in the broader crypto market. Excluding stablecoins like Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC, CryptoSlate data reveals that losses over 3% were experienced by the top 20 digital assets by market capitalization. The two most valuable digital assets, according to market capitalization, dropped to $3,696 and $67,287, respectively, for Ethereum and Bitcoin.

According to a number of market commentators, the approval of the ETH ETF was a “sell-the-news” moment. Investors had already positioned themselves to benefit from the decision, which they expected. With a weekly increase of around 21.94%, the price of ETH has surged. CryptoSlate reports that the Ethereum futures market reached a one-year high of 3.6 million ETH.

Seems like the market has already priced the Ethereum spot ETF approval. Grayscale’s ETHE discount to ETH has significantly narrowed in the last few days. The same happened between GBTC and Bitcoin as the Bitcoin Spot ETF approval was nearing.
