The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has received over 30 applications for cryptocurrency-related exchange-traded funds (ETFs), indicating a significant shift in the crypto investment landscape. This surge in applications highlights the growing institutional interest in digital assets and evolving market dynamics. Industry experts, including Nate Geraci, predict that more ETF applications will be submitted to the SEC in the coming months. Bloomberg's Eric Balchunas also anticipates a new wave of crypto ETFs, potentially offering expanded asset options through platforms like Coinbase.
