Ethereum Crossed US$2.4K After ETF Application Amendement

Ethereum's native token Ether jumped above $2,400 Wednesday afternoon to a two-week high as asset managers Ark Invest and 21Shares amended their joint spot ETH ETF filing. While Bitcoin is the largest cryptocurrency, many in the industry argue that Ether has a distinct set of use cases that would make the cryptocurrency particularly useful to financial advisors.
 
A key roadblock to approving the vehicles is whether the agency considers ethereum to be a security, commodity, or something else entirely— a designation the SEC has so far avoided making officially. Nevertheless, ETH's price advanced nearly 2% within an hour from when the news appeared, breaking above $2,400 for the first time since January 22. The second-largest crypto by market cap was up 2.4% over the past 24 hours and outperformed the broader cryptocurrency market.

"New Federal Reserve News Agency": The Federal Reserve is set to raise interest rates next week, but a single rate hike won't solve the problem

Nick Timiraos from "The New Federal Reserve News Agency" recently wrote that investors have largely concluded that the Federal Reserve will make its first interest rate hike in three years next week, but the harder question is what will happen afterward. Since almost no one inside the Fed believes that a single 25 basis point rate hike is enough to bring down inflation, a decision to raise rates next week would reflect the judgment that rates were previously set at the wrong level, and a single hike cannot solve the problem. Since the 1990s, the Fed has only had one "one-time" rate hike.
