币界网报道:Bloomberg analysts predict that altcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are "near certain" to launch by the end of the year, following the recent approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs. Senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas noted that Ethereum ETFs are likely next, with a 75% chance of approval by May. The SEC's approval of Bitcoin ETFs has set a precedent, making it easier for other crypto-based ETFs to gain regulatory clearance. Analysts suggest that Solana could be the next candidate for an ETF, given its growing market presence and institutional interest. The introduction of altcoin ETFs is expected to further legitimize the crypto market and attract more institutional investors. However, regulatory hurdles remain, as the SEC continues to scrutinize the classification of certain altcoins as securities. Despite these challenges, the momentum from Bitcoin ETF approvals has created optimism for broader crypto ETF adoption in 2024.
