WisdomTree has requested to withdraw its Ethereum Trust registration filing with the SEC while asking to apply the fees as a credit for "future use."

Asset manager WisdomTree has requested to withdraw its Ethereum Trust S-1 filing with the United States regulator, more than three years after initially submitting it.

WisdomTree acknowledged that it wouldn’t receive a refund for fees paid to the SEC for submitting its registration statement but requested that the amount be credited “for future use.”

VanEck to shutter Ethereum futures ETF

September 6, 2024 Coin Telegraph

Coin Telegraph

Spot Ethereum ETFs are stealing the show and killing demand for futures-based crypto ETFs.

Asset manager VanEck is shuttering its futures-based Ether (ETH) exchange-traded fund, citing insufficient demand as spot cryptocurrency ETFs dominate inflows, according to a Sept. 6 announcement.

VanEck chose to close the fund due to factors “including performance, liquidity, assets under management, and investor interest,” it said.

Shares of VanEck Ethereum Strategy ETF (EFUT) will stop trading on Sept. 16 and fund assets will be liquidated and returned to investors on or around Sept. 23, according to the announcement.

Multiple factors fueling Ether’s ‘dismal’ price action — VanEck

September 5, 2024 Coin Telegraph

Coin Telegraph

According to analysts at VanEck, Ethereum’s share of decentralized exchange trading volume has dropped from 42% in 2022 to 29% in 2024.

Asset manager VanEck outlined multiple factors contributing to Ether’s (ETH) poor price performance in its Crypto Monthly Recap for August 2024.

The report divided the issues plaguing Ethereum into three main categories: a general decline in network revenue, “deliberate policy choices,” and value extraction from layer-2 solutions and service providers.

According to VanEck, a consumer shift to higher-throughput layer-1 blockchains like Solana (SOL) is partially to blame for the general revenue decline on Ethereum. Analysts for VanEck asserted that the “best use case for public blockchains at this early stage is speculation.”

Solana ETF approvals are extremely unlikely this year, though VanEck’s head of digital assets, continues to believe in them.

United States Solana exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have a “near-zero” chance of getting greenlit under the current administration after the regulator reportedly rejected a filing necessary for their approval.

“A snowball’s chance in hell of approval unless there’s a change in leadership,” said Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas in an X post on Aug. 20.

Only days earlier on Aug. 16, reports emerged that Cboe had removed the 19b-4 filings for two prospective Solana ETFs from its website’s “Pending Rule Changes” page.
