Opinion: Canceling staking plans may weaken demand for spot Ethereum ETFs

On May 23, many in the crypto market believe that key modifications made by issuers to spot Ethereum ETF applications are beneficial for the Ethereum blockchain but detrimental to the ETF product itself. Issuers, including Fidelity and Ark, have already canceled plans to stake Ethereum ETFs.


Staking has always been a sensitive issue for Ethereum, as it allows holders to earn rewards, raising questions about whether the token should be considered a security regulated by U.S. authorities.


Some market participants believe that if ETFs cannot stake their tokens, the appeal of spot ETFs will be less than directly purchasing stakable Ethereum.
