Meme Coins Surge Amid Optimism for Spot Ethereum ETFs

由于对现货以太坊 ETF 的乐观情绪，Meme 代币飙升

Meme coins experienced a second consecutive day of growth, fueled by increased optimism that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will approve spot Ethereum ETFs (exchange-traded funds) as early as tomorrow.

由于美国证券交易委员会 (SEC) 最早将于明天批准现货以太坊 ETF（交易所交易基金）的乐观情绪的推动，Meme 币连续第二天出现增长。

The meme coin sector overall witnessed a 5.9% surge in market capitalization over the past 24 hours, reaching $61.06 billion. Ethereum-based PEPE led the gains, soaring 26% to an all-time high of $0.0000142 on May 22.

Optimism Over Spot Ethereum ETF Approvals

对现货以太坊 ETF 批准的乐观情绪

Optimism regarding the potential approval of spot ETH ETFs escalated following speculation that the SEC may be shifting its stance.

在猜测 SEC 可能会改变立场后，对现货 ETH ETF 可能获得批准的乐观情绪升级。

CoinDesk reported that the SEC's division of trading and markets had requested updates to filings from exchanges planning to list and trade ETH ETFs. This move suggests that the regulator may be preparing to approve applications ahead of Thursday, when it is expected to decide on an application for an Ethereum ETF by fund manager VanEck.

CoinDesk 报道称，SEC 交易和市场部门已要求计划上市和交易 ETH ETF 的交易所更新备案文件。此举表明监管机构可能准备在周四之前批准申请，预计届时将对基金经理 VanEck 的以太坊 ETF 申请做出决定。

Bloomberg ETF analysts increased the odds of approval to 75% on May 21, up from 25% previously. A Polymarket contract put the odds at over 61% on the same day, and those odds have since improved to 69%.

5 月 21 日，彭博 ETF 分析师将批准的可能性从之前的 25% 提高到 75%。 Polymarket 合约当天的赔率超过 61%，此后赔率已提高至 69%。

Reports indicate that five prospective spot ETH ETF issuers have already submitted amended filings, including Fidelity, VanEck, Invesco/Galaxy, Ark/21Shares, and Franklin. Fidelity removed all references to staking and staking rewards in its amended filing. ETF specialist Eric Balchunas from Bloomberg Intelligence interprets this as a sign that the SEC will not allow the staking of assets within spot ETH ETFs if approved.

报告显示，五家潜在的 ETH ETF 现货发行人已经提交了修改后的文件，包括 Fidelity、VanEck、Invesco/Galaxy、Ark/21Shares 和 Franklin。富达在其修改后的文件中删除了所有有关质押和质押奖励的提及。 Bloomberg Intelligence 的 ETF 专家 Eric Balchunas 将此解读为，如果获得批准，SEC 将不允许在现货 ETH ETF 中进行资产质押。

Meme Coins Back in the Spotlight

Meme 币再次成为人们关注的焦点

Meme coins tend to gain attention during critical events in the cryptocurrency market. Besides PEPE, other top meme coins on the ETH blockchain, such as Shiba Inu (SHIB) and FLOKI, have also experienced gains.
