ETH consolidating before continuing its way to $4K

COINBASE:ETHUSD   Ethereum
Ether extended its gains over the past 24 hours as investors now expect an approval of Van Eck’s application for a spot Ether exchange traded fund (ETF) as early as today or by tomorrow at the latest. This would be the first of nine similar applications to be approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

“ If they approve the Ethereum ETF, they are approving the entire industry. This is the last dam to be broken,” the crypto profile Anthony Pompliano said.

The price of Ether rose another 3 percent on these speculations over the past 24 hours. It has risen by 29 percent over the past seven days.

“If the spot ETH ETF is approved, it will be a true shock to everyone I know in DC who's close to this process. That doesn't mean it won't happen. It means approval could signal a major shift in US crypto policy after the SAB 121 vote, perhaps more important than the ETF itself,” the Chief Legal Officer of Variant Fund, Jake Chervinsky echoed.

The US Congress has turned down the SEC’s proposed SAB 121 regulation, which would have forced crypto custodians to record their clients’ crypto holdings as liabilities on their balance sheet. The concerned financial institutions would incur massive capital expenses if this regulation was enforced. The question now is whether President Joe Biden will veto the decisions of the two chambers as he has indicated he will do, or not.

Inflows into the ETH ETFs estimated to reach up to $45 billion

Inflows into the above-mentioned Ether ETFs will reach between $15 and $45 billion by next summer, conditional on their approvals, according to the estimates of the Head of Forex and Digital Assets research at Standard Chartered Bank, Geoff Kendrick. He forecasts that the price of Ether will reach $8,000 by year-end, the Block reports.

Clouds with some sun are gathering over Ethereum in the next 24 hours, but bullish sunny vibes will be back within 3 days and extend to the one-week time horizon. This indicates further upside potential for ETH.
