SEC Delays Approval Date for Fidelity Ethereum ETF to March 5th

According to a document released on Thursday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has extended the deadline for its decision on Fidelity's proposed spot Ethereum exchange-traded fund (ETF) to March 5th.

The SEC stated, “The Commission believes that designating a longer period within which to take action on the proposed rule change is appropriate so that it has sufficient time to consider the proposed rule change and the issues raised therein.”

Fidelity applied for the Fidelity Ethereum Fund in November, citing in its proposal a court ruling last year where a judge stated that the SEC failed to provide sufficient reasoning to reject spot crypto ETFs, while it had already allowed futures-based products at the time.

SEC Delays Approval Date for BlackRock Spot ETH ETF to March 10th

According to a document, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed the decision timeline for BlackRock's proposed spot ETH exchange-traded fund (ETF) to March.

Based on a document released on Wednesday, “The Commission believes that designating a longer period within which to take action on the proposed rule change is appropriate so that it has sufficient time to consider the proposed rule change and the issues raised therein.”

The SEC now faces a final deadline of March 10th to approve, reject, or take additional procedures regarding the proposed fund.
