The head of crypto at CME Group, Giovanni Vicioso, recently discussed how Bitcoin ETFs have influenced the crypto industry by providing legitimacy and prompting wider promotion of Bitcoin by major distribution networks. Investment advisors now focus on educating clients about Bitcoin ETFs. Additionally, conversations about potential altcoins like Ethereum have emerged, with discussions expanding to include smart contracts, DeFi, and web3. Vicioso highlighted the possibilities for future ETFs for 22 altcoins, including Aave, Cardano, and Solana, selected for their potential use cases.
