SEC is concerned about proposed Spot Bitcoin ETF
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), has delayed its decision to allow Bitwise Asset Management to deploy a spot Bitcoin ETF. The agency also sought clarifications from Bitwise on the matter.
The agency sent a notice to Bitwise asking for advice on how Bitwise will address potential problems such as fraud and share monopolization in its spot Bitcoin ETF.
Bitwise and NYSE
Bitwise and NYSE Arca submitted their rule changes in October 2017. The United States SEC subsequently delayed its decision on the proposal and rescheduled it for February 1, 2020. Despite reaching today, the regulator did not respond.
Despite some delays by the SEC, VanEck Bitcoin ProShares Bitcoin Strategy was approved.
The Notice is Supported
Security and Exchange Commission highlighted the Bitcoin ETP TTrust’s transparency and liquidity in the notice. Furthermore, the agency asked that the investment company throws more light on BBitcoin’ssuitability.
The notice also stated that manipulations can occur in the coin markets; therefore, Bitcoin’s suitability for ETP (Exchange Traded Products) is a fundamental property.
After it delayed the Bitcoin exchange-traded funds of many issuers in recent months, including SkyBridge and Valkyrie, the agency’s delay was also caused by Fidelity.
The world’s most popular crypto-coin was trading at $38,468.16 by 1.30 PM ET. After it reached an All-Time High of $69,000 in November 2021, this declined.
Kryptoin, an investment company, was previously rebuffed by the SEC in December. After 8 months of scrutiny, the proposal was rejected.
This decision came as no surprise, however, since the Security and Exchange Chairman had already expressed his opinion for Bitcoin futures Exchange Traded Fund to be an independent ETF that owns the Bitcoin.
