Spot Ethereum ETFs Expected to Launch Mid-July
As July begins, the cryptocurrency market eagerly awaits the launch of spot Ethereum ETFs.
The crypto community is particularly focused on when these ETFs will start trading.
Currently, all eyes are on July 4 for the SEC’s final approval of ETH ETFs. However, ETF expert Nate Geraci from The ETF Store has updated his prediction, now expecting spot Ethereum ETFs to launch on July 15.
Geraci notes that Bloomberg’s estimate also points to mid-July. He explains that revised S-1 applications are anticipated to be submitted on July 8, with final S-1 approval potentially arriving by July 12.

In May, the SEC approved 19b-4 filings to list spot ETH ETFs on exchanges. However, S-1 filings must also receive SEC approval before these ETFs can begin trading.
