VanEck began pushing for a spot Ether ETF with its initial registration filing on May 7, 2021, with prolonged efforts and delays to meet the regulatory standards required for its approval.


Essential filings in the lead-up to the approval include the Prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) and multiple amendments to the  Form S-1 as the firm adjusted to SEC compliance requirements.

As the last stage in the SEC ETF approval process, the crypto investments firm 21Shares also made amendments to receive final approval from the SEC.


Both firms’ filings did not include launch dates for US exchanges but indicated that the Ethereum ETFs would be launched as soon as practicably possible “after the effective date.”
