This episode of Bits + Bips explores the impact of political outcomes on Solana ETFs, the SEC’s delay on Ethereum ETFs, bitcoin’s performance against the NASDAQ, and more.
Are Solana ETFs on the brink of approval? How might political outcomes influence this decision?
Join hosts James Seyffart, Alex Kruger, and Joe McCann as they delve into the latest buzz around Solana’s potential spot ETFs, dissect the SEC’s puzzling delay on Ethereum ETFs, and debate why bitcoin’s recent performance has diverged from the NASDAQ.
They also discuss the US presidential election, the event that Alex says was the “second most bizarre thing” he’s seen in his life, what the bond market seems to indicate about expectations for a Trump presidency, and how upcoming nonfarm payroll reports and potential rate might affect the markets.
