CFB Talks Digital Assets Episode 29: The Ether Investment Case and what the ETF approvals say about regulatory changes, with Sui Chung

Spot Ether ETFs are finally here!

Just like for Bitcoin ETFs though, the path to approval has been full of suspense and drama.

Whether it was SEC chair Gary Gensler's stated view that Ether is a security; the controversy over staking, or regulatory action against certain crypto platforms, the process often felt like it was one plot twist away from complete shut down.

To find out what we learned, join CF Benchmarks CEO Sui Chung, Head of Content Ken Odeluga, and Head of Research Gabe Selby, CFA, for an extra special episode of the CFB Talks Digital Assets podcast.

• How filings changed over time to meet SEC expectations; offering clues on possible future crypto ETF approval criteria
