Spot Bitcoin ETFs: More work being done
This comes in the wake of more progress being made on spot Bitcoin ETF applications.
For instance, Grayscale Investments on Monday met with officials from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s division of trading and markets to discuss potential listing matters concerning the shares of the product, according to a memo published by the SEC. Grayscale is currently trying to convert its flagship Bitcoin trust into a spot Bitcoin ETF. It filed an updated prospectus following the meeting.
A separate memo dated Nov. 20 showed that the SEC also had a meeting with BlackRock and Nasdaq employees.
Prospective spot Bitcoin ETF issuers Ark Invest and 21 Shares filed an amendment to their prospectus earlier this week.
