This level of trading activity is typical for new ETFs but significantly lower when compared to the massive $200 million traded within the first 15 minutes of the launch of the Bitcoin Strategy ETF ($BITO).

VanEck and ProShares are currently locked in a competitive race in the single Ether lane, striving to capture market share and investor interest.

These ETF launches also coincide with ongoing discussions at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding the possibility of approving a spot Bitcoin ETF.

While the SEC has historically been cautious about such products, recent legal developments and the successful launch of Ether Futures ETFs may provide optimism for the future approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs.
