The post Despite the US Government Shutdown, the ETF Wave Continues! Numerous ETF Applications Submitted, Including Bitcoin and Solana (SOL) appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The two-week government shutdown in the US continues to impact cryptocurrencies. Altcoin ETFs like XRP, Solana (SOL), and Litecoin (LTC), which were expected to be approved back-to-back, have faced delays due to the government shutdown. Like many government agencies in the US, SEC employees have been placed on unpaid leave and continue to work with a limited staff. The SEC’s Trading and Markets Regulations have delayed the approval date for altcoin ETFs due to a provision in the SEC’s Trading and Markets Regulations that states, “During a government shutdown, the SEC will not be able to review pending applications, evaluate new or pending applications or registrations, issue interpretative recommendations, or issue no-action letters.” ETF approval decisions are not expected to be announced during the shutdown. However, the ETF market continues to be bustling with activity. Despite the ongoing government shutdown in the US, at least five new ETF applications have been filed with the SEC. Large asset managers are stepping up competition by launching a variety of products, including leveraged ETFs, staking ETFs, and yield strategy ETFs. At this point, VanEck filed S-1 documents with the SEC for its Lido Staking Ethereum (ETH) ETF. 21Shares filed for the HYPE 2x leveraged ETF. ARK Invest filed for three additional Bitcoin (BTC)-related ETFs. Volatility Shares filed for new 3x and 5x leveraged ETFs tied to major US stocks and virtual assets, while VanEck recently submitted an amendment for a Solana (SOL) staking ETF charging a 0.3% fee rate. Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas commented on 21Shares’ HYPE 2x leveraged ETF: “This product is a very niche market, but it could reach multi-billion dollar scale in 3-4 years.” “Once the government shutdown ends, there will be a wave of approvals for altcoin ETFs,” commented Nate Geraci, president of ETF Store. *This is not…

The post A Netflix ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Short Film Has Been Rated For Release appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. KPop Demon Hunters Netflix Everyone has wondered what may be the next step for KPop Demon Hunters as an IP, given its record-breaking success on Netflix. Now, the answer may be something exactly no one predicted. According to a new filing with the MPA, something called Debut: A KPop Demon Hunters Story has been rated PG by the ratings body. It’s listed alongside some other films, and this is obviously something that has not been publicly announced. A short film could be well, very short, a few minutes, and likely no more than ten. Even that might be pushing it. Using say, Pixar shorts as a reference, most are between 4 and 8 minutes. The original movie is an hour and 36 minutes. The “Debut” in the title indicates some sort of flashback, perhaps to when HUNTR/X first arrived on the scene before they blew up. Previously, director Maggie Kang has commented about how there were more backstory components that were supposed to be in the film that were cut, but hinted those could be explored in a sequel. But perhaps some may be put into a short here. I very much doubt those scenes were fully produced and simply cut, but perhaps they were finished up for this short film here. When would Debut: KPop Demon Hunters theoretically arrive? I’m not sure the other films on the list are much help. Dead of Winter is out in less than two weeks. Mother Mary does not have a release date. Ne Zha 2 came out earlier this year. I’ve only seen news stories saying The Perfect Gamble was supposed to come out in Q1 2025, but I’ve seen no evidence that it actually has.
