SEC Expected to Approve Bitcoin ETFs after Trading Closes Today

According to one senior executive at one of the applying firms, the SEC is expected to approve Spot Bitcoin ETF applications after trading closes today. Fox Business reports that we can see the first applications approved shortly after 4:00 pm ET today, coinciding with initial reports that we would see approvals come Wednesday.

The CBOE also reports that we may see the first Spot Bitcoin ETFs start trading as soon as tomorrow. Today is also the deadline for a host of prospective issuers. However, early reports assured that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will likely approve multiple applicants. Currently, more than a dozen applications for the investment product are pending.

Competition will be abundant because the SEC is expected to approve a host of Spot Bitcoin ETFs. This has already been present in the advertisement battle that started before approvals. Moreover, it has continued in pricing, with asset management firms BlackRock, Fidelity, and Grayscale attempting to compete with each other’s pricing plans for the investment firms.

According to the initial complaint filed by Sphere 3D in April, Gryphon CEO Rob Chang allegedly wired 18 BTC in January to a fraudster posing as Sphere 3D’s chief financial officer through a spoofing attack. Within a few days, eight more Bitcoins were sent to the same address, resulting in a total loss of over $500,000 at the time.
