The US Securities and Exchange Commission has acknowledged BlackRock\u2019s filing about allowing investors in its flagship Ethereum ETF to stake their assets.<\/p>\n
Although this development doesn\u2019t guarantee an official approval of the filing, it\u2019s still a big step in the right direction.<\/p>\n
\nNEW: U.S. SEC ACKNOWLEDGES BLACKROCK\u2019S FILING TO ALLOW STAKING IN ITS SPOT $ETH<\/a> ETF<\/p>\n

The \u201cacknowledged\u201d part means that the securities watchdog has confirmed that it has received certain amendments made by the ETF issuer. Typically, the SEC also opens a public comment period, allowing stakeholders to weigh in on the matter.<\/p>\n
BlackRock and Nasdaq submitted a 19b-4 rule change proposal that aims to allow investors using the iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) to stake ETH with staking rewards treated as income to the fund.<\/p>\n
ETHA is by far the largest Ethereum ETF, and it became the third-fastest<\/a> to reach a $10 billion AUM milestone within less than a year after its launch.<\/p>\n
It continues to attract substantial net inflows. The last day in the red was on July 2, with $46.9 million leaving the fund. Since then, it has been on a massive roll<\/a>, attracting nearly $4 billion in net inflows in less than a month.<\/p>\n
The underlying asset\u2019s price has benefited substantially from these enormous inflows, having surged by over 50% in the past month alone. Moreover, ETH is up by more than 150% since its bottom in early April and is close to knocking on the $4,000 door now.<\/p>\n
