Grayscale's Bitcoin ETF Ruling Shifts Sands Of Crypto Regulation: 3 Analysts Weigh In
Portfolio Pulse from AJ Fabino
A federal court has ordered the SEC to reconsider its rejection of Grayscale Investments' application to transform its GBTC closed-end fund into a Bitcoin spot ETF. The court stated that the SEC failed to provide sufficient reasoning for approving two Bitcoin futures ETPs while denying Grayscale's Bitcoin spot ETF. The decision does not guarantee SEC approval, but mandates a review of Grayscale's application. Major financial institutions like BlackRock Inc, Fidelity, and WisdomTree Inc are also seeking to launch their own spot Bitcoin ETFs.
