Mt.Gox is expected to compensate clients by October 31.<\/p>\n<p>This situation could benefit Ethereum ahead of the launch of spot ETFs, experts suggest. On May 23, the US Securities and Exchange Commission approved 19b-4 applications from potential product issuers. Companies are now awaiting the regulator&#8217;s approval of the S-1 form.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;As the market consolidates within a range and eagerly anticipates the launch of spot ETFs on Ether, &#8216;accumulators&#8217; remain attractive, allowing traders to consistently accumulate ETH at a discount,&#8221; noted QCP Capital.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is a Sell-Off Possible?<\/h2>\n<p>Analysts at Bitfinex share concerns regarding the upcoming payments to affected Mt.Gox users.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;If creditors decide to quickly liquidate their assets, the market could face an increase in Bitcoin supply. This scenario is likely to lead to a sharp price drop due to the sudden influx of sell orders. Such an event could trigger a cascade of further liquidations as panic spreads among other holders,&#8221; they suggested.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile, amid the trading of major cryptocurrencies within a relatively narrow range, investors&#8217; attention has shifted to more volatile meme coins, noted QCP Capital specialists.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;Traders are shifting their focus to high-beta meme tokens like Shiba Inu, Dogecoin, and Pepe, which are showing double-digit growth within the 10-20% range and rank in the top 10 by open interest volume,&#8221; wrote the analysts.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The most significant growth over the past seven days has been demonstrated by assets in the <span data-descr=\"Political finance \u2014 a category of meme coins consisting of political figures.
