Frequently Asked Questions
How do US spot Ethereum ETFs differ from Bitcoin ETFs?
US spot Ethereum ETFs launched July 2024. Unlike Bitcoin ETFs, they do NOT include staking — the SEC required this for approval. This means ETH ETF holders don't earn the 3.5-4.5% staking yield that on-chain ETH holders receive, creating a performance drag vs holding ETH directly.
