In the crypto space, many users continue to speculate whether a spot <a href="https://coin-turk.com/ethereumda-hedef-belli-oldu-eth-3-000-dolari-ne-zaman-gorecek" data-wpel-link="internal">Ethereum</a> exchange-traded fund (ETF) will be approved by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) before May 31st. The Polygon-based crypto prediction site Polymarket is putting forward the thoughts of investors on whether a spot Ethereum ETF application will be approved before the end of May. 
<h2 class="p1" style="text-align: justify" id="polymarket-data-attracts-attention">Polymarket Data Attracts Attention</h2> 
About 81% of users who bet over $2.4 million are pessimistic about the chances of a spot Ethereum ETF approval by the end of May. <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/bitcoin-and-ethereum-reach-new-highs-as-crypto-market-surges/" data-wpel-link="internal">Crypto</a> investors buy yes or no shares based on their predictions of how things will unfold. The value of the share represents the prediction rate and changes similarly to the crypto market trends.

Currently, a Yes share costs $0.19, while the value of a No is $0.81. This indicates that fewer users believe in the chances of spot Ethereum ETF approvals before the end of May. The top trader for Yes holds about $84,000 worth of shares, while the top trader for No holds approximately $127,000 worth of No shares. 
SEC, if it approves a spot Ethereum ETF fund before the prediction market’s deadline of May 31st, the market will resolve, and the owners of Yes shares can cash out their earnings. However, if no approval is received before this date, the opposite will hold true. 
<h2 class="p1" style="text-align: justify" id="significant-developments-on-the-matter">Significant Developments on the Matter</h2> 
This is not the first time crypto investors have made predictions on ETF approval outcomes. On January 5th, Reddit users criticized Polymarket users for speculating on whether spot <a href="https://coin-turk.com/analistten-bitcoine-btc-kritik-cagri-bu-verilere-dikkat" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin</a> ETF applications would be approved by the SEC before January 15th. 
A Reddit user called the process foolish, likening it to investing dollars to win dimes. Another user joked about nearly losing their children’s college fund by betting on the ETF outcomes. The total bets on ETF outcomes reached at least $12 million in the prediction market. Ultimately, the SEC approved the trading and listing of 11 spot <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/sec-delays-decision-on-four-bitcoin-etfs/" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin</a> ETF funds on January 10th. 
<a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/famous-investor-robert-kiyosaki-now-turns-to-apple/" data-wpel-link="internal">Investment</a> management firm Grayscale, expressed confidence in May about the approval of spot Ethereum ETF funds. On March 25th, Grayscale’s Chief Legal Officer Craig Salm stated that the perceived lack of interaction with applicants by the SEC did not indicate whether an ETF fund would be approved or not.
