Ethereum
(ETH)
traders
are
watching
two
key
events
closely:
the
anticipated
approval
of
the
Spot
Ether
ETF
and
the
activities
of
whales,
the
large
wallet
investors
holding
ETH.
An
analyst
has
predicted
that
the
odds
of
Spot
Ether
ETF
is
72.7%
this
week.

that
the
odds
of
the
SEC
approving
a

ETH
ETF
is

this
week.

traders
anticipate
the

approval
to
act
as
a
bullish
catalyst
for

altcoin’s
price.
Eric
Balchunas,
Senior
ETF
analyst
at
Bloomberg
shared
his
thoughts
on
the
Ether
ETF
and
said
it
remains
unclear
why
the
US
financial
regulator
is
taking
so
long.
Yeah,
rn
it’s
all
quiet
on
the
Western
Front
re
eth
ETFs.
Nada
from
SEC
this
week.
Unclear
why
they
taking
such
sweet
ass
time.
Every
issuer
is
ready.
Docs
are
ready.
It’s
like
a
rain
delay
in
baseball.
Gotta
just
wait.
Maybe
things
will
move
fast
next
week.
We’ll
see…

Santiment
data
shows
that
Ethereum
supply
on
exchanges
has
climbed
to
its
highest
level
in
2024.
It
is
likely
that
Ether
holders
anticipate
a
rally
in
ETH
price
and
are
waiting
to
take
profits.
19.23
million
Ether
is
being

the
similarities
between
Ether

and
Bitcoin’s
prior

the
largest
asset

200%.
If
the
Ether
ETF
garners
as
much
attention
and
interest
from
institutional
investors,
as
Bitcoin
did,
it
is
likely
that
the
altcoin
extends
gains
by
200%.
