Investment Company Executive Predicts What Could Happen to Ethereum, Solana and Avalanche if Kamala Harris Wins

Matt Hougan, Chief Investment Officer of Bitwise, expressed optimism about the future of Ethereum and clarified misconceptions about the U.S. government's stance on cryptocurrencies. He stated that there is a balanced interest between Bitcoin and Ethereum among investors, with many excited about Ethereum's versatility and projects built on its network. Hougan predicted that flows into Ethereum ETFs will exceed previous years and noted that Ethereum requires more education for investors, but that learning curve is accelerating. He also mentioned the regulatory approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in 2024 and a relatively mild enforcement period from the SEC. In terms of the political climate, Hougan suggested that a potential Harris presidency might not be as unfavorable to crypto as the current Biden administration. He discussed potential legislative efforts that may move forward regardless of who wins the next election and suggested that a Harris administration might benefit Ethereum over other smart contract platforms due to potential regulatory challenges they may face.
