<p>When asked whether the spot ETH ETF was on the cards, ARK Invest President and chief operating officer Tom Staudt said the approval was coming “soon.” Staudt recalled that ARK Invest was the first applicant to file for an Ethereum ETF with the US SEC and hence expressed confidence of an approval in near future. On September 7, 2023, Ark Invest <a href="https://coingape.com/ark-files-first-spot-ether-etf/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">became</a> the first to file for a spot Ether ETF in the United States. The fund was initially aimed at expanding its portfolio of crypto products, at a time when the market was increasingly becoming confident of a Bitcoin ETF approval.</p> 
<p>Speaking to Fox Business journalist Eleanor Terrett, the ARK Invest COO <a rel="nofollow" href="https://twitter.com/EleanorTerrett/status/1750005601378213906" target="_blank">said</a> the discussions with the SEC gives confidence of the possibility of an ETH ETF approval, both from legal principle and implementation standpoint. Compared to the timeline in the lead up to the spot Bitcoin ETF approval, the case for Ethereum ETF approval has changed philosophically, operationally and also legally, he explained.</p>
