Seems there won't be any staking, see this article about the last Fidelity upgrade.

In the article they mention that staking may introduce additional risks because funds could in theory get slashed. If I'm drawing the correct conclusions, this means that a "spot ETF" and "staking" are generally not compatible (at least in the US).

More confirmation of the coming Ethereum ETF approval as VanEck Spot ETH ETF has been listed on their website under ticker symbol ETHV. I’m very curious to see how these ETF’s handle Ethereum staking. Will the funds be growing the amount of ETH per share or will they be paying a dividend to shareholders? This is getting interesting…

Sardines and olives, eh? I see you are a man of culture.

Thank you @Laszlo!

Trump is playing emotions, mostly. There's little to no substance at the factual level, mostly based on interviews/debates i have seen with him.
I don't take Rep. publicity into account, where he is 100% about triggering emotions, which is quite common (sadly, it's like some sort of inverse standup comedy).

So, when you would rely so much on emotional messaging and visions like Donald, other than responding to facts and revealing actual plans how to solve actual problems, you are likely pretty desperate.
Who would trust a desperate, instable personality like Trump to respectfully run a country?
Hint: It's mostly desperate minds. But desperate people tend to add to the problems and/or dismiss more responsible actions, but are highly emotionally sensitive. Also, instincts of self preservation slowly start taking over with growing desperation, like a "It's either me or them" kind of mindset.

My short verdict: If Trump suddenly changes his mind in questions of Bitcoin (and you-know-what), you can't trust him even a little fuck that he doesn't do it on purpose.
The fact that the USA are almost only driven by two parties, suggests that a Rep will almost always cowardly counterargument a Dem's argument (and also vice versa), makes this move no less suspicious to me.

And he and his team exactly know what they want to accomplish with this statement.
What do you think that would be?
Only more money, or also more stir in political discussions, for the purpose of... what exactly? More debates to fire the old emotional triggers another time at the crowd on air and in headlines, or only the "bad news is good news" approach?

EDIT: I had to think about Bill Gates following the post above, because he made MS-DOS/Windows a success. Not because it was even just a little superior to the competition (*geekLOL* because it wasn't, by far) - but because Bill's desparation to sell it to IBM for a Dollar per install. Let that sink in a bit.

Seems Trump understands the power and influence of the Bitcoin community for his campaign, unlike the others. Trump ain't playing. Donation has started...

Missing the chopper...

For me, lasers come on when we exceed $100k.

Probably soon.

Get them lasers again above 70!

A few days ago the news was that the Ethereum exchange traded fund would not be approved and that seemed to be a bit of a catalyst for Bitcoin recent rise.  Now today they're saying the Ethereum ETF is going to be approved and that's causing ETH to far exceed BTC in gains, possibly even putting a cap on Bitcoin's run as investors dilute their Bitcoin position to include other cryptos (ETH).  I suspect this is probably temporary, but I do expect to see a majority of retail money flowing into crypto to be targeting the ETH ETF for at least a month or two while folks build positions.
