Co-founder and former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of MicroStrategy, <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/crypto-power-saylor-says-senate-want-bitcoin/">Michael Saylor,</a> has shown support for the approval of <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/ethereum/when-spot-ethereum-etfs-go-live-expect-a-bloodbath/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Spot Ethereum ETFs</a>. The crypto billionaire reiterated that the introduction of Ethereum ETFs was “good” for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market.&nbsp; 
<h2 id="spot-ethereum-etf-approval-is-better-for-bitcoin">Spot Ethereum ETF Approval Is “Better” For Bitcoin</h2> 
In a recent interview with Beagle, the host of Bitcoin Gamblers Anonymous, Saylor <a href="https://x.com/beaglebitcoin/status/1794443617399885986?s=46" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">shed light</a> on his perspective of the United States Securities and Exchange (SEC) <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/sec-deep-trouble-with-crypto-cpost-ethereum-etf/">approval of Ethereum Spot ETFs</a> and how this investment instrument would impact the crypto market.&nbsp; 
The MicroStrategy founder disclosed that the SEC’s acceptance of Spot Ethereum ETF was a great development for Bitcoin, as it enhances the <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/pro-bitcoin-javier-milei-wins-primaries-argentina/">political power of the pioneer cryptocurrency</a>. He noted that an Ethereum Spot ETF would serve as a “line of defense” for Bitcoin, highlighting <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/ethereum-user-tsunami-record-94000-new-accounts-and-32-million-in-staked-funds/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Ethereum’s extensive user base</a> and the broad support it enjoys from the entire crypto industry 
Saylor also indicated that Spot Ethereum ETFs could accelerate institutional adoption by fueling investors’ interest in cryptocurrency ETFs through diversification. This, in turn, could significantly impact Bitcoin’s price metrics, <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-demand-slowed-down-glassnode-report/">potentially increasing demand</a> and triggering a rally for the cryptocurrency.&nbsp; 
The MicroStrategy co-founder also revealed that before the SEC’s acceptance of Ethereum Spot ETFs, Bitcoin was viewed as the only asset not categorized as a security, following the SEC’s <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/bitcoin-news/bitcoin-etf-approval-triggers-1-2-billion-trading-volume-and-new-highs-for-btc-price/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">approval of a Spot Bitcoin ETF on January 10</a>. As a result, Bitcoin would have been heralded as the only legitimate crypto asset in the industry.&nbsp; 
However, with the SEC’s recent authorization of Ethereum Spot ETFs, Saylor anticipates a different outcome. He emphasized that the global crypto asset class would ultimately become legitimized, supported by the two largest cryptocurrencies in the world, Bitcoin and <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/eth-price-spot-ethereum-etfs/">Ethereum</a>.&nbsp; 
He also stated that this legitimization would enable broader acceptance of other aspects of the crypto industry, such as Decentralized Finance (DeFi), NFTs, digital trading and others, facilitating widespread acceptance, with <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/bitcoin-news/bitcoin-bulls-gain-breathing-room-as-long-term-holder/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Bitcoin</a> spearheading this change as the leader of the crypto asset class. 
<h2 id="bitcoin-price-after-the-sec-s-ethereum-spot-etf-approval">Bitcoin Price After The SEC’s Ethereum Spot ETF Approval</h2> 
On Thursday, May 23, the US SEC approved a critical rule change that would allow ETFs holding Ethereum. This approval came after months of deliberations and <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/invescos-proposal-ethereum-spot-etf-delayed/">consistent delays </a>from the regulatory agency.&nbsp; 
Given the <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/ethereum-security-considered-in-eth-spot-etf/">SEC’s implied classification of Ethereum as a security</a>, many analysts in the crypto industry, including Bloomberg ETF analysts, James Seyffart and Eric Balchunas, had <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/ethereum-spot-etf-expert-predicts-approval-odds/">low expectations</a> for the regulator’s approval of Ethereum Spot ETFs.&nbsp; 
Consequently, the crypto community was doubly shocked when the US SEC accepted Ethereum Spot ETFs. This approval significantly impacted Bitcoin’s price dynamics, as the cryptocurrency <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/analysis/btc/bitcoin-price-dips-68250/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">recorded declines</a> while the excitement of an Ethereum Spot ETF spread through the crypto community. 
At the time of writing, BTC is trading at $68,613, marking a 0.96% decline in the last 24 hours. The cryptocurrency’s <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/analysis/btc/bitcoin-price-steam-70k/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">daily trading volume</a> of more than $18.6 billion is up slightly by 21.11%, highlighting a minor increase in <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/bitcoin/bitcoin-lack-of-interest-70000/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">investors’ confidence</a> in the cryptocurrency.&nbsp;
