BlackRock in November last year filed its application for its iShares Ethereum Trust, which will be listed on the Nasdaq if approved.

Ether is the second-biggest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.

The SEC in January delayed its decision on BlackRock’s application after it gave the green light to several bitcoin ETFs.

A spot crypto ETF tracks the market price of the underlying digital asset, giving investors exposure to the token without having to buy the currency.
