BREAKING: A Significant Hurdle Has Been Overcome on the Way to Bitcoin Spot ETF, According to Bloomberg
According to Bloomberg, companies applying for Bitcoin Spot ETFs have overcome a major hurdle in receiving approval from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The SEC is expected to vote on exchange rule applications next week.
The SEC’s decision could potentially open the doors for a new wave of investment in Bitcoin.
ETFs, which allow investors to invest in a fund that tracks the price of Bitcoin rather than the cryptocurrency itself, are seen as an important step towards mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies.
While the SEC has previously rejected several applications for Bitcoin ETFs, citing concerns about potential price manipulation and lack of liquidity, removing this key hurdle would mark a change in regulatory attitude.
In the news we recently shared as Bitcoinsistemi.com, we reported that BlackRock kept $2 billion aside to support its own spot ETF.
