The product will trade under the ticker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.volatilityshares.com\/ethu\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">ETHU<\/a>, offering the company\u2019s first Ether-linked ETF and come a few months after Volatility Shares\u2019 2x Bitcoin-linked ETF (BITX) that launched in July.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Eric Balchunas, a senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg, says Volatility Shares\u2019s positioning for the debut of the Ether ETF could see it beat rivals amid the race to be first to market with the highly anticipated product. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Even though the SEC hasn\u2019t pronounced itself on ETHU, Balchunas notes that the regulator \u201clooks to be ok\u201d with the proposal as there hasn\u2019t been any withdrawal. Also notable is the application date, which with the 75-day approval window, means the company is likely to be first to the market on October 12.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Nonetheless, the SEC may choose to group the filings and Volatility Shares are probably \u201cjust pushing the envelope\u201d as they did with their BITX offering.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Well, there&#8217;s been no withdrawals so SEC looks to be ok with them, but re the date, he did file first so he would normally go out first. but SEC may want to group them, he&#8217;s prob just pushing the envolope like he did w BITX<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Eric Balchunas (@EricBalchunas) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EricBalchunas\/status\/1691488090232172558?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 15, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Stuart Barton, the CIO of Volatility Shares has indicated that the company is looking to have ETHU available to investors before they shift focus to the increasingly demanded-for spot ETF market.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The SEC has notably not approved any spot crypto ETF for the US, and the next big decision after a <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/sec-delays-decision-on-ark-invest-spot-bitcoin-etf\/\">recent delay for the Ark spot Bitcoin ETF<\/a>, will be on Grayscale.
