PANews reported on December 10th, citing Cointelegraph, that Vitalik Buterin stated that Ethereum's occasional "loss of finality" does not pose a serious risk; the key is to avoid "erroneous finality." Despite the finality delay caused by the Prysm client vulnerability, the chain can still function normally. Ethereum expert Fabrizio Romano Genovese stated that when finality is temporarily lost, Ethereum is more like Bitcoin, with its finality being probabilistic. Ethereum's rules are: a block is "Justified" when it receives more than 66% of the validators' votes, and "Finalized" after two more epochs (64 blocks). He pointed out that this situation occurred in May 2023. Polygon stated that cross-chain and L2-related transfers will await finality; deposits may be delayed, but there will be no rollback or message invalidation.PANews reported on December 10th, citing Cointelegraph, that Vitalik Buterin stated that Ethereum's occasional "loss of finality" does not pose a serious risk; the key is to avoid "erroneous finality."

SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings
The post SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a new standard for crypto ETF listings on Wednesday. The standard is created to simplify the working of exchanges in terms of the process followed for crypto ETP listings. This makes it possible to to avoid the cumbersome route of case-by-case approval being followed so far. With this change, exchanges can bypass the 19(b) rule filing process. It is a review that can stretch up to 240 days and demands direct SEC approval before an ETF can launch. Instead of going through the tedious and lengthy review process, the SEC has set up a system that allows exchanges to act more quickly. Now, when an ETF issuer presents a product idea to exchanges like Nasdaq, NYSE, or CBOE, the exchange can move ahead as long as the proposal meets the generic listing standard. This means that strategies based on a single token or a basket of tokens can be listed without waiting for individual approval. New Standards Will Ease Crypto ETF Listings: SEC Chairman According to the Chairman of the SEC, Paul Atkins, this move is aimed at making it easier for investors to access digital asset products through regulated U.S. markets. He noted that by approving generic listing standards, the agency is helping U.S. capital markets remain a global leader in digital asset innovation. At the same time, the SEC approved the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, a fund made up of Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Cardano and Solana. Furthermore, the SEC also approved a new type of options linked to the Cboe Bitcoin U.S. ETF Index and its mini version. This step further expands the range of crypto-linked derivatives available in regulated U.S. markets. How Will SEC General Listing Standard Impact Altcoin Crypto ETF Market?
