Spot Ether ETFs are Exchange-Traded Funds that directly hold Ether, the native cryptocurrency of the Ethereum blockchain, as their underlying asset. These investment products allow traditional market participants to gain exposure to the price movements of Ether without directly purchasing or storing the digital asset themselves. They provide a regulated and accessible avenue for investors to participate in the Ether market. Such funds are settled based on the current market price of Ether.

A key debate concerns regulatory hurdles, particularly regarding market surveillance and investor protection. Future developments depend heavily on regulatory decisions in major financial jurisdictions, which could significantly influence institutional investment in Ethereum.
