ETF stands for exchange traded fund. This could affect the transferring from one wallet to another using gas or bank charges
While you answered about the ETF from a different perspective but you forgot to answer the second question mentioned in the subject line. The "effect" part of it.
Bitcoin ETF is not useful for main bitcoin market. To be honest, not a single penny from ETF market is going to flow into the bitcoin market. The money invested in ETF is going to stay with the company and the investors will just get the profits and losses from the price volatility. So ETF is not helpful for the crypto market.

As a follow up on what is being answered so far because even me myself, aside from the news that surrounds it because if the noise of major support, I don't really understand the real effect its going to have on bitcoin and I believe a lot of people feels the same which is what led to the creation of the thread.
In your submission, you said its not going to have any effect on the price of bitcoin but those companies that people who have no knowledge of bitcoin approaches to buy shares on their behalf, those companies are bound to do same and in doing that means they have to buy for them or trade on their behalf then share the profit. This would ultimately affect the price of bitcoin or am I missing something?
ETFs are of two types. One is synthetic ETF and another one is physical ETF. I don't yet know what kind of ETFs are currently being reviewed by SEC. if it is a synthetic ETF, then certainly we are not going to have any effect on the bitcoin market because synthetic ETFs don't hold a physical asset. Index funds are one of the examples of synthetic ETF. But some of the index funds buy forward contracts to maintain their fund security.
But if the ETFs being reviewed are the physical ones, then yes, they will have to buy physical bitcoins and trade according to the requirement of the investors. So if the ETFs in question are the physical ones, then we will see a very significant effect on the bitcoin market because of large buying orders and fresh funds inflow. But lets wait for more clearer picture until the fund documents is available for the public. Then we can ascertain on its impact based on the type of the ETF.
I think with the ETF and SEC it will be able to affect the price of bitcoin in the future, especially the influence of price increases, and I am very happy if it really will happen.
Lets be optimistic. It is possible to happen this time. This is what the crypto market need now to turn things around and get hodlers of different altcoins smiling. Off course, maybe not shit coins.

for the price of ETF itself does not have much effect on bitcoin price because bitcoin value is higher than ETF, except on the contrary sometimes Bitcoin value will greatly affect the value of ETF because the average price follow bitcoin price. 
ETF expectations was one of the factors that affected the price in november-december
that and Tether,of course
there is an interesting article on how it could have affected the price through 2016-2017

In my opinion, ETF is the Exchange Traded Fund which owns the underlying belongings including Bitcoin. Actually present market undergoing a much large and longer speculative section for the imminent bitcoin ETF choice. If authorized, masses of thousands and thousands at a minimum are anticipated to be poured into bitcoin. Now The short-term price might be pushed by speculators, as a real ETF fund could source the majority of bitcoins from over-the-counter markets.

Obviously it will lead to a bullish market for bitcoin and in fact, cryptocurrency as a whole because with our experience so far with price, the increase in bitcoin price leads to increase in altcoin.
The reason that it will increase price is that, there will be lots of transaction and awareness.

So many news for ETF and SEC this week? how can happen after 10 th august?
Basically, an ETF would allow computer illiterate investors to have exposure to the Bitcoin asset. So imagine that your grandma wants to invest in Bitcoin but she has no idea. Well, if an ETF gets approved, then in most banks she will be able to go there, tell them to "buy me X amount of BTC "shares"" and then she will have these sort of shares which represent BTC, which the bank controls for her.
This is very incorrect if you want to be specific but it's how most people can understand it. So the fact that it will make it extremely easy for people to have exposure to BTC will attract massive amounts of capital which means very bullish news. All ETF attempts have been declined by SEC thus far.

I tend to agree for the most part, but apparently at least one of the ETFs currently under review for approval will actually have actual Bitcoin backing the funds. So, presumably, this means that if they want to sell X shares this isn't simply represented by Y Bitcoin, it will have to prove to regulators that they actually own Y Bitcoin to back the shares.
If this is truly the case, demand for the ETF would drive the company to buy more Bitcoin to issue more shares. At least, that's my simple view. Even so, I doubt it's much of immediate effects on the market. But if people held their shares, that's essentially Bitcoin staying in the hands of the company.

Well, we will profit from it by seeing an higher Bitcoin price, if anything. We can't stop it, if they want to do it, then they will do it. Just like we couldn't stop Bitcoin futures from being created. They can play around with these things for as much as they want, at the end of the day what matters is if you hold your coins or not. Let them play with non-Bitcoin backed toys and enjoy the price increasing, there's not much else to do.
Also apparently this ETF will not be for anybody, it will have a minimum of 25 BTC worth requirement of purchase, so this may be thought with big institutions or just rich individuals in mind, not the average joe.
while i write this post last night, i forget to look at bitcoin price, is rising nicely now, is it the effect? i read on twitter member of SEC comment positive for ETF..

It's an "exchange-traded fund." Basically, an ETF holds a type of asset (or basket of assets) and issues shares to be held by investors. Since the shares are backed by the underlying assets, share prices usually track an index of the underlying via arbitrage.
The Winklevoss twins have been trying to get an ETF approved for years because it'll give traditional investors better access to Bitcoin's volatility without some of the risks associated with spot exchanges. The Cboe is trying to bring an ETF to market as well.
