U.S. stock exchanges have taken the final steps towards listing the first Bitcoin">Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), filing revised documents that signal confidence of imminent regulatory approval.
Exchanges including BlackRock, Grayscale, and Fidelity submitted amended 19b-4 forms to address previous SEC feedback. With deadlines looming as soon as January 10th, insiders say approval of long-awaited spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. could land next week.
The amended filings combine with updated S-1 registrations from last month. Once the SEC signs off on both, potentially approving multiple Issuers simultaneously, the floodgates would open for public U.S. investment into Bitcoin via ETF vehicles.
Industry participants have eagerly awaited this milestone for years. The access and exposure would significantly expand Bitcoin and crypto’s reach into mainstream finance. Now with major exchanges rallying to list, it appears Americans may soon trade Bitcoin ETFs as easily as stocks and bonds.
