The future of altcoins may be better after the approval of Ethereum ETF.
The approval of Ethereum Spot ETF can be a start of something bigger for this market. If Ethereum is not a security, many other altcoins will not be securities and they will no longer be arbitrarily suited by SEC. like how SEC. did many times recent years without any solid base on existing laws and regulations.
A biggest threat for altcoins is how they are classified by SEC. as a commodity or security?
If it is a commodity, it is no longer regulated by SEC. but will be regulated by CFTC.
Based on current Howey test, SEC. just arbitrarily classify altcoins as securities and there are pressure to compose new Act to define cryptocurrencies as security or commodity, to replace or adjust the Howey test.
Does crypto pass the Howey test?As many of these large institutions start buying Bitcoin, expect a bull run at any moment. Altcoins can go higher in a bull run. Long standing concerns about market manipulation, coupled with cryptocurrency, cast doubt on the future of Ethereum ETFs. But the approval of Bitcoin ETFs will open the door for similar Ethereum products, potentially further advancing cryptocurrencies into mainstream financial markets.
Coming months will be very chaotic because the altcoin season starts, market makers will try to make some market wash outs to prepare for their manipulation in altcoin season.
If you already filtered the market, chose and accumulated good altcoins, hold them and don't feel fearful with fud in coming months.
