The speculation coming out in these news articles is about the possible approval of Ethereum (ETH) staking in the existing ETFs.
What is happening:
• Grayscale is pushing the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) to allow Ethereum ETFs to include staking.
• According to Grayscale, investors are losing about US$$ 61 million in rewards by not being able to participate in staking through the ETFs.
• This means that, although the Ethereum ETF has already been approved, staking with the ETH from the ETFs is not allowed, which limits the potential returns for investors.
