Cathie Wood Of Ark Invest Believes Ethereum ETF Approval Linked To US Politics, Sees Likelihood Of A Solana ETF As Well
ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood has stated that cryptocurrency has become a significant political issue in U.S. elections, leading to the unexpected approval of key Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) ETF filings.
方舟投資首席執行官凱西·伍德表示，加密貨幣已成爲美國大選中的一個重大政治問題，導致以太坊（加密貨幣：ETH）ETF的主要申請意外獲得批准。
What Happened: Wood made this remark at Consensus 2024, as reported by CoinDesk, attributing the sudden approval of Ether ETF filings to the growing importance of cryptocurrency in U.S. election debates.
發生了什麼：據CoinDesk報道，伍德在2024年共識會上發表了這一言論，他將以太幣ETF申請的突然批准歸因於加密貨幣在美國大選辯論中的重要性日益提高。
Wood expressed surprise at the approval, stating, "The read was it was not going to be approved. It was absolutely not going to be approved." She further explained that the sentiment around the Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act (FIT21) evolved in the House, leading to its recent bipartisan approval.
伍德對批准表示驚訝，他說：“解讀是不會獲得批准。它絕對不會獲得批准。”她進一步解釋說，圍繞《21世紀金融創新與技術法案》（FIT21）的情緒在衆議院發生了變化，導致該法案最近獲得兩黨批准。
Wood also pointed out former President Donald Trump's increasing comfort with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, including his recent decision to accept campaign donations in crypto, as a factor that has drawn attention to the sector.
伍德還指出，前總統唐納德·特朗普對比特幣和其他加密貨幣越來越滿意，包括他最近決定接受加密競選捐款，這是引起該行業關注的一個因素。
While Wood suggested that a Solana (CRYPTO: SOL) ETF could be approved, she deemed meme coin-focused funds unlikely, stating that large brokerage firms and investment advisory companies would not accept more than "the majors."
儘管伍德建議Solana（加密貨幣：SOL）ETF可能會獲得批准，但她認爲以模因幣爲重點的基金不太可能，她表示，大型經紀公司和投資諮詢公司接受的只有 “主要股票”。
Why It Matters: Wood's comments come in the wake of her earlier predictions about the potential of cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin (CRYPTO: ETF). In April 2024, she raised her Bitcoin prediction by $2.3 million, suggesting that a $1,000 investment could be worth a significant amount by 2030.
爲何重要：伍德的評論是在她早些時候對加密貨幣，尤其是比特幣（加密貨幣：ETF）的潛力做出預測之後發表的。2024年4月，她將對比特幣的預測提高了230萬美元，這表明到2030年，1,000美元的投資可能價值可觀。
Despite Ether's recent spotlight due to the ETF approvals, Wood maintained her bullish sentiment on Bitcoin, stating, "Bitcoin, hands down. No question about it. It is a global monetary system. It is a technology, and it is a new asset class."
儘管由於ETF的批准，以太幣最近備受關注，但伍德仍保持對比特幣的看漲情緒，她說：“比特幣，毫無疑問。毫無疑問。它是一個全球貨幣體系。這是一項技術，也是一種新的資產類別。”
Earlier this week, she also highlighted how El Salvador's push for Bitcoin and AI could potentially increase its GDP 10X in five years.
本週早些時候，她還強調了薩爾瓦多對比特幣和人工智能的推動可能在五年內將其GDP增長10倍。
ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (BATS:ARKB) attracted inflows of $4 million on May 29, and around $ 3 billion since the ETFs started trading in January, according to SoSo Value.
根據SoSo Value的數據，ARK 21Shares比特幣ETF（BATS: ARKB）在5月29日吸引了400萬美元的資金流入，自ETF於1月份開始交易以來吸引了約30億美元的資金流入。
