The more we see\/hear (and don't see\/hear), the less optimistic I become.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>However, the analysts added that the activity could pick up pace in the coming days. They also said that the expectation remains that an ETH ETF will be approved sometime this year \u2014 even if not in May.<\/p>\n<h2>Cautiously hopeful<\/h2>\n<p>Despite these lowered expectations, some industry observers like Variant Fund's Chief Legal Officer, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jchervinsky\/status\/1767175990285857006\">Jake Chervinsky<\/a>, remain <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jchervinsky\/status\/1767175990285857006\">cautiously optimistic<\/a>, suggesting that the upcoming weeks could provide clearer signals about the SEC's direction.<\/p>\n<p>However, he also raised concerns that the SEC may treat Ethereum like a security and would be unwilling to approve the applications without judicial intervention.<\/p>\n<p>The overall sentiment appears to be veering towards skepticism, with major investment banks such as JPMorgan and TD Cowen also projecting unlikely approval by May.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast to the Bloomberg analysts, the crypto market-making firm GSR has maintained a more hopeful stance, initially estimating a 70% chance of approval.<\/p>\n<p>However, the firm recently admitted that this optimism might soon wane if there's no visible progress in the next month.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Standard Chartered has said <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/stanchart-believes-sec-will-approve-ethereum-etfs-in-may\/\">multiple times<\/a> that the SEC is likely to approve Ethereum ETFs in May.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent shift of perspective, Bloomberg analysts have significantly lowered the forecast for the approval of a spot Ethereum exchange-traded fund (ETF) by May \u2014 setting the probability at a mere 35%.
