In a remarkable milestone for the crypto industry, U.S. regulators have granted final approval for spot exchange-traded funds that hold <a href="https://u.today/ethereum-eth-sets-major-staking-milestone-details" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum (ETH)</a>.
The decision marks the end of a years-long process to obtain ethereum ETFs approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which followed the regulator's approval of Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs in January.
The anticipation and subsequent approval of these ETFs created a ripple effect, boosting market sentiment and driving considerable capital inflows.
According to the most recent CoinShares report, the outlook for Ethereum seems to have reversed, seeing a further USD $45 million of inflows last week, surpassing Solana as the altcoin with the largest inflows year-to-date (YTD) at $103 million. Solana also received inflows of $9.6 million last week, but it now trails Ethereum by $71 million year-to-date.

Spot ETH exchange-traded funds will begin trading today, July 23. The crypto community is enthusiastic that the move might broaden the investor base for Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Other Ether ETFs monitor futures contracts, but these are the first to track spot ETH.
Notably, the approval of <a href="https://u.today/ethereum-etf-heres-why-next-week-might-be-crucial" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum ETFs</a> has sparked significant movements across various assets. While Ethereum has been in the spotlight, stablecoins have also experienced a notable surge.
