Grayscale's Ethereum Trust (ETHE) discount has narrowed to under 10%, reaching its lowest level since 2021, amid increasing optimism for a spot Ethereum ETF approval. Market data from YCharts indicates that the ETHE discount rate has dipped to 6.66%, highlighting traders' bullish sentiment.
Several leading fund managers, including BlackRock and Fidelity, have updated their filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in response to reports suggesting that the SEC might approve spot Ethereum ETFs soon. The amendments to filings might significantly benefit Grayscale's continued efforts to convert its Ethereum Trust into an ETF.
This heightened anticipation has led to increased Ethereum inflows on major exchanges, with CryptoQuant reporting a surge to $231M, exacerbating market volatility. The adjustments by financial giants and the narrowing ETHE discount indicate that investors are positioning themselves to capitalize on potential Ethereum ETF developments.
