A bipartisan group of US lawmakers advised the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in a May 22 letter to approve spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
美国两党议员在 5 月 22 日的一封信中建议美国证券交易委员会（SEC）批准现货以太坊交易所交易基金（ETF）。

The letter signatories included Financial Committee Vice Chairman Rep. French Hill, House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, and Representatives Josh Gottheimer, Mike Flood, and Wiley Nickel.
信中的签名者包括金融委员会副主席、众议院多数党党鞭汤姆-埃默（Tom Emmer）、众议员乔希-戈特海默（Josh Gottheimer）、迈克-弗勒德（Mike Flood）和威利-尼克尔（Wiley Nickel）。

In the letter addressed to SEC Chair Gary Gensler, the lawmakers urged the regulator to apply the same principles it used for spot Bitcoin ETFs to Ethereum ETF applications. They argued that this would demonstrate regulatory consistency.
在写给美国证券交易委员会主席加里-根斯勒（Gary Gensler）的信中，立法者们敦促监管机构将其用于比特币 ETF 现货的相同原则应用于以太坊 ETF 申请。他们认为，这将显示监管的一致性。

The letter noted that the launch of Bitcoin ETPs provided a regulated and transparent investment vehicle for American investors. It also highlighted the SEC’s commitment to investor protection and acceptance of modern financial markets — arguing that approving an Ethereum ETF would reinforce this commitment.
信中指出，比特币 ETPs 的推出为美国投资者提供了一个规范、透明的投资工具。信中还强调了美国证券交易委员会对投资者保护和接受现代金融市场的承诺--认为批准以太坊 ETF 将强化这一承诺。 

The lawmakers added:
立法者补充道

“With the Commission’s actions earlier this year, it seems a natural progression that would not only demonstrate consistency in the Commission’s application of its standards but would also affirm the legal reasoning that facilitated the spot Bitcoin ETPs decision.”
"随着委员会今年早些时候的行动，这似乎是一个自然的进步，不仅将证明委员会在应用其标准方面的一致性，还将肯定促进现货比特币 ETPs 决定的法律推理。" 
The legislators also stated that the SEC’s market surveillance and enforcement measures would mitigate concerns about market manipulation and that transparency and reporting requirements would enable investors to make informed decisions.
立法者还表示，美国证券交易委员会的市场监督和执法措施将减轻对市场操纵的担忧，透明度和报告要求将使投资者能够做出明智的决定。

The support for Ethereum ETFs comes amid a shifting regulatory landscape for crypto in the US. Recently, the industry has been at the center of conversations and debates, leading to the passage of bills to create regulatory clarity for the emerging industry.
对以太坊 ETF 的支持正值美国加密货币监管环境不断变化之际。最近，该行业一直处于对话和辩论的中心，导致一些法案获得通过，为新兴行业创造了清晰的监管环境。

After weeks of minimal engagement, the SEC recently asked exchanges supporting the ETF applications to refile their 19b-4 forms with standardized language. Additionally, the SEC seems to be engaging directly with potential issuers, as companies like Grayscale have filed updated S-1 forms this week.
在经历了数周的极少参与之后，美国证券交易委员会最近要求支持 ETF 申请的交易所以标准化语言重新提交 19b-4 表格。此外，美国证券交易委员会似乎正在直接与潜在发行人接触，因为像 Grayscale 这样的公司本周已经提交了更新的 S-1 表格。
