The SEC postpones its decision on options trading for several Ethereum ETFs

The postponement ensues after the SEC sanctioned options trading for BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF, accompanied by stringent rules to mitigate market manipulation. The SEC has extended the deadlines for these funds to November 10 and 11, 2024, in accordance with Section 19(b)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act. In
