Along with Valkyrie and Volatility Shares, 15 Ethereum ETF proposals have come from nine issuers.These include Ethereum ETF applications from firms including VanEck, ProShares, Grayscale, Bitwise, Direxion, and Roundhill.<h2 style="text-align:justify;" id="likely-before-the-us-govt-shutdown">Likely Before the US Govt. Shutdown</h2>In an update on Sept. 28, Balchunas wrote that the US SEC wanted to accelerate the launch of Ether futures ETFs, before the government shutdown.&ldquo;They [SEC] want it off their plate before shutdown,&rdquo; he noted, as once the shutdown kicks off, the majority of the SEC staff would become unavailable.<figure class="media"><oembed url="https://twitter.com/EricBalchunas/status/1707203091785732272"></oembed></figure>The US government will shutdown at 12:01 a.m. ET on October 1, if Congress fails to pass 12 different spending bills to fund agencies across the government, a possibility that looks increasingly likely.Further, the analyst wrote that the regulator has asked various filers to update their documents by Friday afternoon, &ldquo;so they can go effective Monday and trade Tuesday,&rdquo; next week.
