SEC now ready to consider ETH futures – report

<p>The SEC has indicated its readiness to publicly consider the latest ether futures filings, according to two sources cited by Blockworks. The <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/sec-consider-ether-futures-etfs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">report </a>noted that the readiness to consider doesn't necessarily mean they will be approved.</p><p>The report adds to the mounting evidence that Blackrock and others were tipped off before filing for bitcoin ETFs.</p><blockquote>The SEC’s willingness to consider these offerings is a reversal from May, when sources said the US securities regulator had told firms seeking ether futures ETFs to halt their efforts. The SEC did not return a request for comment at the time.</blockquote><p>There is no sense of why the SEC had a change of heart.</p>
