    4. The recent approval of the ETH ETF by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) marks a significant milestone for the crypto industry. However, substantial challenges remain on the path to progress.

    Approval of ETH ETF and Its Significance

    The recent approval of an Ethereum-based ETF represents an important shift in regulatory attitudes toward cryptocurrencies. However, compliance with regulatory norms remains a key challenge for the industry.

    Shrinking of Custodia Bank

    Custodia Bank, which provides banking services to crypto companies, faces difficulties due to actions by the Federal Reserve Bank. Blocking the main account status increases the bank's costs by requiring intermediary support. The bank had to lay off 9 of its 39 employees due to this situation.

    Biden Administration's Stance on Crypto

    While the approval of the ETH ETF is a positive step, administrative pressure continues. The OpenSea platform received a notice from the SEC this week, viewing NFTs as securities and preparing to file lawsuits.

    The future of the crypto industry in the U.S. remains uncertain despite some positive steps. Companies continue to adapt to the conditions of strict regulation by government agencies.
