Eric Balchunas took to the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/EricBalchunas\/status\/1767204301372297274?s=20\">share<\/a> the update with the cryptocurrency community.<\/p>\n<p>According to the expert, we now have only a \u201c35% chance of getting the ETH ETFs approved\u201d by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) by the anticipated May deadline predicted by Standard Chartered.<\/p>\n<p>Balchunas initially estimated a 70% possibility of approval of the ETFs by May, so this marks a huge departure from his forecasts from January. The Bloomberg analyst clearly noted that there are several reasons, in their opinion, why the Commission ought to approve the spot ETFs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, this time, he says, \u201cnone of the sources or indicators that gave them a bullish 2.5-month outlook\u201d for Bitcoin Spot ETFs are present at the moment. This simply demonstrates the uncertainty around the products in the broader crypto landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Balchunas has urged the community not to lose hope completely as there is a chance that Ethereum ETFs might be approved since a 35% odd is not 0%, suggesting a likelihood of approval happening in the long term.<\/p>\n<p>Balchunas\u2019s post came in response to Fox Journalist Eleanor Terret\u2019s post, which shared\u00a0her insights on the subject. Eleanor Terret drawing attention to Jake Chervinsky\u2019s opinions stated that it aligns with what she \u201chas been hearing\u201d regarding the approvals.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, it does not imply that the products will not be accepted within the year. She further highlighted that there has not been \u201cany significant interaction from SEC officials\u201d regarding applications, and \u201cthe May deadline is rapidly approaching.\u201d Terret has expressed some optimism about the approval, saying that \u201cthe agency might take a nosedive on their engagement in April or May.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ETH_Spot_ETFs_Cycle_Is_Different_From_BTC_Spot_ETFs\"><\/span>ETH Spot ETFs Cycle Is Different From BTC Spot ETFs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Another Bloomberg Intelligence ETF analyst, James Seyffart, has also shared his opinions on the matter. Adding to Eric Balchunas\u2019s insights, Seyffart pointed out that the \u201cEthereum ETF cycle presently seems to be the reverse of the Bitcoin ETF approval probabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Seyffart underscored how \u201chis optimism decreases as they observe and hear more, and as they do not observe and hear more.\u201d According to Seyffart, the deadline for approval is just less than \u201c73 days away,\u201d and it seems like no progress has been made.<\/p>\n<p>It is noteworthy that the World\u2019s largest prediction market, Polymarket, has also confirmed the decline in acceptance odds. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/polymarket.com\/event\/ethereum-etf-approved-by-may-31?tid=1710226630983\">Data<\/a> from the platform shows that Ethereum ETF odds are currently sitting at 36%.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forecasts of approval of the much-anticipated Ethereum Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) are dwindling as top market analysts and experts express doubts about its possibility, citing a significant drop in approval odds over time.
