#AltcoinETFsPostponed
The postponement of approval for exchange-traded funds for Altcoins has shocked both investors and analysts alike. The decision by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) not to give the green light yet means that the market will remain under pressure of anticipation and volatility for a longer period. This delay has weakened risk appetite in the market, which was clearly reflected in the ETH/USD pair, as Ethereum declined against the dollar due to reduced expectations of large institutional funds entering soon.
Many had hoped that approval would be a step toward market maturity and rising prices, but the delay increases the regulatory uncertainty that hinders broader adoption of cryptocurrencies.
Watch the markets, as regulatory decisions have become a key driver of cryptocurrency movements.
