Asset Management Giant VanEck Files for Staked Ethereum ETF

2 min read

The global investment management giant VanEck has filed for a new Lido Staked Ether (stETH) exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the US.

Documents submitted to the state of Delaware on Monday indicate the ETF, if approved, would be tied to the price of stETH, a liquid staking token on the Lido protocol.

Lido Staked Ether is based on the underlying ownership of Ethereum (ETH) and earns staking rewards.

In August, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced that liquid staking activities do not involve the offer and sale of securities and do not need to be registered with the regulator.

Kean Gilbert, head of institutional relations at the Lido Ecosystem Foundation, says VanEck’s new ETF application signals “growing recognition that liquid staking is an essential part of Ethereum’s infrastructure.”

“Lido protocol’s stETH has shown that decentralization and institutional standards can coexist, providing a foundation the broader market can build on.”

Lido Institutional says that users have earned more than $2 billion in staking rewards since the launch of the Lido protocol, which the decentralized finance data aggregator DeFi Llama notes has more than $34.2 billion in total value locked (TVL).

TVL refers to the amount of capital deposited within a protocol’s smart contracts and is often used to gauge the health of a crypto ecosystem.

SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings

SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings

The post SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a new standard for crypto ETF listings on Wednesday. The standard is created to simplify the working of exchanges in terms of the process followed for crypto ETP listings. This makes it possible to to avoid the cumbersome route of case-by-case approval being followed so far. With this change, exchanges can bypass the 19(b) rule filing process. It is a review that can stretch up to 240 days and demands direct SEC approval before an ETF can launch. Instead of going through the tedious and lengthy review process, the SEC has set up a system that allows exchanges to act more quickly. Now, when an ETF issuer presents a product idea to exchanges like Nasdaq, NYSE, or CBOE, the exchange can move ahead as long as the proposal meets the generic listing standard. This means that strategies based on a single token or a basket of tokens can be listed without waiting for individual approval. New Standards Will Ease Crypto ETF Listings: SEC Chairman According to the Chairman of the SEC, Paul Atkins, this move is aimed at making it easier for investors to access digital asset products through regulated U.S. markets. He noted that by approving generic listing standards, the agency is helping U.S. capital markets remain a global leader in digital asset innovation. At the same time, the SEC approved the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, a fund made up of Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Cardano and Solana. Furthermore, the SEC also approved a new type of options linked to the Cboe Bitcoin U.S. ETF Index and its mini version. This step further expands the range of crypto-linked derivatives available in regulated U.S. markets. How Will SEC General Listing Standard Impact Altcoin Crypto ETF Market?
