WisdomTree将终止以太坊ETF注册

美国投资公司 WisdomTree 在向美国证券交易委员会（SEC）提交三年后，要求撤回其以太坊信托注册声明。

American investment company WisdomTree has now filed a request to withdraw its Ethereum Trust registration statement, three years after submitting it to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This news comes a few hours after fellow asset manager VanEck closed down its Ethereum futures ETF due to a lack of demand.

在向美国证券交易委员会（SEC）提交以太坊信托注册声明三年后，美国投资公司 WisdomTree 现在已提出撤回其以太坊信托注册声明的请求。这一消息是在资产管理公司 VanEck 由于需求不足而关闭其以太坊期货 ETF 几个小时后发布的。

WisdomTree filed a Form S-1 registration statement with the SEC on May 27, 2021, aiming to launch an ETF that would provide investors with exposure to Ethereum at a lower cost and with reduced liability. The ETF, titled “WisdomTree Ethereum Trust,” was set to be listed on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (Cboe). The proposed maximum aggregate offering price of the ETF was $1,000,000.

WisdomTree 于 2021 年 5 月 27 日向 SEC 提交了 S-1 表格注册声明，旨在推出一款 ETF，为投资者提供以更低的成本和更少的责任投资以太坊的机会。该ETF名为“WisdomTree Ethereum Trust”，计划在芝加哥期权交易所（Cboe）上市。 ETF 的拟议最高总发行价为 1,000,000 美元。

However, WisdomTree has now decided to withdraw the registration statement of the ETF, along with all relevant exhibits. The asset manager has stated that no securities in relation to the said application have been or will be sold to investors. Additionally, WisdomTree has acknowledged that the filing fees for this registration statement, amounting to $109.10, cannot be refunded. They have also requested that these fees be directed toward future use.

然而，WisdomTree现已决定撤回该ETF的注册声明以及所有相关证据。资产管理公司表示，与上述申请相关的任何证券已经或将不会出售给投资者。此外，WisdomTree 承认该注册声明的申请费为 109.10 美元，无法退还。他们还要求将这些费用直接用于未来的使用。

This development comes shortly after VanEck announced plans to shut down its VanEck Ethereum Strategy ETF (EFUT), an investment fund that tracks Ethereum futures contracts. According to VanEck, this decision was made after considering various factors such as “performance, liquidity, assets under management, and investor interest.” Trading activity on EFUT will cease on September 16, and shares will be liquidated on or around September 23.

这一进展是在 VanEck 宣布计划关闭其 VanEck 以太坊策略 ETF (EFUT)（追踪以太坊期货合约的投资基金）后不久发生的。 VanEck表示，这一决定是在考虑了“业绩、流动性、管理资产和投资者兴趣”等多种因素后做出的。 EFUT 的交易活动将于 9 月 16 日停止，股票将于 9 月 23 日左右清算。

Meanwhile, the Ethereum spot ETF market saw an outflow of $6 million in the last day, according to data from Farside Investors. The total cumulative net flows of the nascent market now stand at -$568.5 million despite holding over 2% of the Ethereum market. At the time of writing, Ethereum trades at $2,237 following a 6.64% decline in the last day, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

与此同时，根据 Farside Investors 的数据，以太坊现货 ETF 市场最后一天流出 600 万美元。尽管占据了以太坊市场 2% 以上的份额，但新兴市场的累计净流量总额目前为 5.685 亿美元。根据 CoinMarketCap 的数据，截至撰写本文时，以太坊交易价格为 2,237 美元，最后一天下跌 6.64%。
