【If the SEC grants appropriate regulatory approval to allow a spot Bitcoin ETF to enter the U.S. market, what would happen to GBTC?】 The creation of GBTC shares would be registered with the SEC through a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933. Redemption of GBTC shares is anticipated to occur under exemptions granted by the SEC previously for products with similar features under Regulation M. This would provide the necessary approvals for both creation and redemption, enabling arbitrage opportunities when there is a premium or discount between GBTC's share price and its net asset value, thereby allowing GBTC to more closely track the value of its underlying asset, Bitcoin. Additionally, once the SEC approves NYSE Arca's 19b-4 rule filing, GBTC would transition from OTCQX to NYSE Arca. GBTC has long been prepared to operate as an ETF. Upon receiving the appropriate regulatory approval, Grayscale will promptly collaborate with our partners to list GBTC on NYSE Arca. #ETF #GBTC #SEC #usdt #bitcoin #otc #crypto #eth #usd #OTCTrading #CryptoOTC #DigitalAssets #CryptoInvesting #TokenTrading #CryptoLiquidity #CryptoToFIAT

Australia's largest stock exchange, The Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), is expected to approve the country's first spot bitcoin ETFs before the end of 2024, according to a recent Bloomberg report. Two entities, Cosmos Asset Management and 3iQ, have already applied for spot bitcoin ETFs with the ASX, while VanEck Australia is working towards submitting its application. Earlier this month, Australia-based asset manager Monochrome also applied for a spot bitcoin ETF with rival exchange Cboe Australia. The potential launch follows major spot bitcoin ETF approvals in the US and Hong Kong. In January, the SEC approved several US spot bitcoin ETFs, which attracted over $200 billion in volume within just three months. #DigitalAssets #Bitcoin #Cryptofication #bitcoinetfs #Tradfi

When #Bitcoin #ETFs were approved for trading one of the topics of conversation that #BTC maximalists were reticent to confront was exactly what is being described in the below article. All things equal, BTC in the form of #IBIT is far more attractive to developed market investors than BTC held on a crypto exchange. The #SEC has blessed it, BlackRock put its name on it, it sits inside a regulated and easy own traditional #brokerage account, #trading costs are nil, holding costs for now are nil - why take more risks to own the same asset? As a result of all this, ETFs and their inflows/outflows are becoming THE pricing mechanism for the underlying, or as they say, the tail is wagging the dog. Add to all this the fact that the the dog (BTC) is at this point just a "holding" asset, that anyone who is trying to build things on the network is finding that Lightning (the tool that was going to make the Bitcoin Network usable for "things" that the network cannot do) is apparently bailing out (https://lnkd.in/eZDTxYi8) and all you ave left is flows (vs. say fundamentals) to determine price. more ETF buyers = price UP, more ETF sellers = price DOWN - the independent, #decentralized, #TradFi alternative to corrupt #WallStreet is priced by the largest asset managers in the world on traditional stock exchange. That loud sound you are hearing is #Satoshi crying tears of pain. https://lnkd.in/eBWev4uC

Crypto Outlook 2024 - Prediction #1 The SEC greenlights a U.S. Spot #Bitcoin ETF in 2024 The year 2023 saw a major increase of #ETF spot applications and an emphasis towards #BTC and ETH from financial powerhouses such as BlackRock, Fidelity Investments or VanEck. We expect green lights in one sweep for all applications today or tomorrow, January 10th, which is the final deadline for ARK Investment Management LLC. Why? 👉 Revived momentum as renowned financial institutions, such as BlackRock with an impeccable application track record. 👉 The SEC meaningfully engaging with #ETF issuers while facing sustained pressure from Congress and the federal court ruling against the SEC in resounding favor of Grayscale Investments. 👉 Various proxies such as GBTC’s discount to NAV narrowing down to single digits (in line with the 90% projection of Bloomberg analysts) and the sustained bid on COIN (up 300% YTD, outperforming BTC; Coinbase filed as custodian for 9 of 12 Bitcoin ETFs) indicate high odds of approval.
