TRX VanEck seeks to withdraw Lido staked Ethereum ETF filing
VanEck is seeking to withdraw its application for a Lido staked Ethereum ETF, according to The Defiant and Cointelegraph. The Defiant reports the proposed fund would have held stETH directly and offered brokerage-account exposure to Lido's liquid-staking token, and that its registration never became effective. Cointelegraph reports VanEck initially filed an S-1 registration statement for the exchange-traded fund in October last year.
