Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, Managing Director and Global Market Strategist at JPMorgan, has stated that if the Ethereum ETF spot is not approved in May, it is expected that there will be a lawsuit procedure after May. Panigirtzoglou said, “We believe that the most likely outcome is that the SEC will eventually lose this lawsuit (similar to the legal battle between Grayscale and Ripple last year), which means that the SEC will eventually approve the spot Ethereum ETF (but not in May this year).” Earlier this week, Panigirtzoglou and his team stated in a report that the easing of concerns about the centralization of Ethereum, such as the decrease in Lido’s market share, increases the likelihood that ETH will avoid being classified as a security in the future. The SEC is currently seeking opinions on some spot ETH ETF applications, including those from Fidelity, Grayscale, and Bitwise.
