Coinbase surges in after-hours trading as SEC opens door to Ethereum ETF
Coinbase rose 5% in after-hours trading after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved rule changes that pave the way for an ETF that buys and holds Ethereum. Robinhood rose 2%.
While both companies offer cryptocurrency trading, Coinbase may stand to gain more from the introduction of Ethereum ETFs as it offers other crypto services such as custody and staking, as well as a wider selection of tradable assets. Coinbase also operates a blockchain called Base, which is built on the Ethereum network.
Ethereum prices were up just 2% on Thursday evening, after rising more than 20% in two days earlier this week on investor optimism over the SEC decision and now on track for its strongest week in more than a year.
