The management of the SEC has changed, and Gensler has resigned. Until Paul Atkins is confirmed by the Senate, Mark Uyeda will lead the SEC. This is positive news as Mark is known for his critical stance on cryptocurrencies and has supported the approval process for Bitcoin $104,113 ETFs, paving the way for a new era. What ETFs have been applied for?
Cryptocurrencies for ETF Applications
Although Bitcoin and Ethereum $3,257 have received approvals, more ETF approvals are needed for institutional and professional investors to safely enter the cryptocurrency market. Altcoin ETFs are particularly significant at this juncture. Applications for ETFs have already been made for numerous cryptocurrencies like SOL, XRP, LTC, DOGE, and even Trump Coin.
When these ETFs are approved, investors focusing on greater profit opportunities in altcoins will have more alternatives.
Insights on DOGE and SOL Coins
Ali Charts shared a graph indicating a potential downward wedge for DOGE, suggesting a new breakout towards $0.39. Although reclaiming the $0.4 threshold could help steer it back towards $1, the overall risk appetite for cryptocurrencies remains weak at the moment.
Investors, still waiting for substantial moves despite Trump’s actions, are opting to remain sidelined. The disappointment stemming from misleading reports suggesting that crypto-related decisions would appear in initial executive orders is undeniable.
Trader Tardigrade noted that the exploding megaphone pattern in the SOL Coin chart indicates that the price will soon continue to $312. As of the writing, SOL Coin remains stagnant at $256. This stagnation should catalyze a significant breakout in all altcoins, especially since BTC is once again closing at six-figure levels.
Consolidation at new highs in altcoins could enhance risk appetite, which has yet to fully kick in with BTC reaching these six-figure marks.
