Bitwise has filed an amended S-1 form for its <a href="https://coingape.com/trending/analyst-forecasts-solana-rising-to-third-in-market-with-etf-hype-buy-now/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum exchange-traded fund</a> (ETF) just days before its July 8 deadline. This move indicates that the product is nearly ready for launch. Analysts predict that these ETFs could begin listing within the next two weeks.

<a href="https://coingape.com/bitwise-drops-new-ad-tips-wider-blockchain-adoption/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitwise’s</a> updated registration form was submitted on Wednesday. Analysts suggest that these products be listed by mid-July. A source close to the situation indicated the SEC might approve the final drafts by the end of next week.
The SEC approved 19b-4 forms for eight <a href="https://coingape.com/spot-ethereum-etf-to-go-live-on-july-15-eth-bull-run/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">spot Ethereum ETFs</a>, including Bitwise, on May 23. However, issuers need their S-1 statements to become effective before trading can begin. This two-step process has kept the market eagerly awaiting the launch.
Despite the light comments on the S-1 forms, the SEC has taken its time to get approvals. A single problematic issuer may need to be on time to process. Nevertheless, expectations remain high for a launch this month.

Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart noted the frequent amendments in S-1 forms. He expects more filings from other issuers throughout the week. This pattern suggests a coordinated effort to meet regulatory requirements.

 UPDATE: We've got another amended S-1 from <a href="https://twitter.com/BitwiseInvest?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@BitwiseInvest</a> for their <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Ethereum?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">#Ethereum</a> ETF. Expect more from other issuers throughout the rest of the week.

Senior Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas expressed surprise at the SEC’s slow pace. He speculated on possible reasons, including summertime vacations. Despite this, he confirmed indications of a launch this month.
The SEC’s return of S-1 forms with light comments suggests minimal hurdles remain. Analysts view this as the final round of feedback. This has increased confidence in a near-term launch.
Bitwise made significant updates to its S-1 form. One notable change includes waiving the sponsor fee for the first $500 million assets. However, the firm still needs to disclose the fee after this threshold.
Another issuer, <a href="https://coingape.com/vaneck-names-coinbase-additional-custodian-for-hodl-bitcoin-etf/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">VanEck</a>, also announced that fees would be waived initially. These moves suggest competitive strategies to attract initial investors. By waiving fees, these firms aim to lower the entry barriers for new investors.
The recent amendments highlight Bitwise’s proactive approach to regulatory compliance. The firm’s updates reflect a strategic positioning ahead of the anticipated market entry. This aligns with the broader trend among issuers to streamline their offerings.
