Coinbase institutional research analyst David Han believes “there is room for surprise to the upside on this decision.”
Despite unfavorable odds from several crypto analysts and the broader crypto community regarding Ether exchange-traded funds (ETF) chances of approval by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), some analysts suggest that "there is room for surprise."
“If by some chance the SEC decides to approve then so many will be caught severely offside,” crypto trader Matthew Hyland told his 142,000 X followers in a May 17 post.
“If 90% of people think the ETH ETF will be denied, and the majority of those people think it will lead to a crypto crash then who will actually be selling?,” he added, before declaring that the expectation of denial is "priced in for crypto." At the time of publication, Ether (ETH) is trading at $3,102, as per CoinMarketCap data.
