No, it was about the ETF fund management firms that could have had a major say in the governance of Ethereum if the Ether they will buy for their clients would be staked and voting.

OK @gadrian so how did this make you agree with the SEC? I got kind of lost reading.

They asked the applicants to revise their applications to not allow staking of the ETH they buy for the ETFs, which otherwise could have been staked and used in governance decisions.

Ethereum ETFs couldn't. But others could, if they buy or hold ETH directly and stake it, and hold a controlling stake.
