One prominent feature of the current crypto bull market is the influx of institutional capital, with spot Bitcoin ETFs becoming an important channel for institutional funds to enter in compliance.
With the further development of the crypto market and the gradual clarity of the regulatory environment, the impending approval of the spot Ethereum ETF and the Solana ETF application submitted by VanEck to the SEC undoubtedly bring new vitality and expectations to the crypto market.
