Breaking News: Is The Approval Of Crypto ETFs At Risk? SEC Operations Frozen By Gov. Shutdown
Breaking News: SEC Will Review Wednesday Decision to Reject BTC-ETF Proposals

VanEck Tells SEC That Bitcoin ETF Concerns ‘Have Been Resolved’

Entities seeking to launch a Bitcoin ETF (exchange-traded fund) met with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) October 23 as one commissioner spelled out the expectations in fresh media comments.


5 Key ‘Issues Resolved’

VanEck, which received a rejection of its ETF application in late August, met with the SEC to discuss its status, producing a supporting document published October 9th outlining five reasons for approval.

“Issues identified in disapproval order have been resolved,” it states.

 There now exists a significant regulated derivatives market for bitcoin

Relevant markets – Cboe, bitcoin futures, OTC desks – are regulated

Concerns around price manipulation have been mitigated, consistent with approval of prior commodity-based ETPs

Cboe’s rules are designed to surveil for potential manipulation of Trust shares

Promotes investor protection.”

Stein Highlights Points Of Consideration

Speaking to Bloomberg TV Monday meanwhile, SEC Commissioner Kara Stein underscored the uncertainty over whether or not ETFs will soon see regulatory approval.

One the face of it, it may seem like the SEC is poking around and trying to cause issues but in reality, it might be the opposite.

Multiple applications to launch have stalled at the SEC’s door, authorities either rejecting or postponing their decision regarding whether or not investors can legally interact with them.

“They’re going to have to show how they can get accurate valuations… despite sometimes volatile price swings, how they can make sure there’s physical custody when necessary,” Stein told the network.

How they’re going to make sure there’s adequate liquidity, especially in a 40 act fund context so investors can get their money… we’ll look at all those factors and make a decision on that particular fund and how it’s actually going to be able to handle those particular requirements.

2019 Or Sooner?

After the initial round of rejections and delays, attention from cryptocurrency analysts and investors turned to other financial products aimed at institutional investors and their capital.

As Bitcoinist reported, multiple Wall Street heavyweights are planning to release cryptocurrency products in the short term, Intercontinental Exchange this week confirming it would launch its Bakkt platform December 12 – again subject to regulatory approval.

ETFs and their potential to shore up cryptocurrency markets meanwhile remain a talking point more generally, with various predictions surfacing that 2019 will be the make-or-break year for the instrument.

Andreas Antonopoulos, while remaining skeptical on the benefits of an ETF for Bitcoin’s reputation, nonetheless forecast that their market entry was a certainty.

“…There’s enormous market appetite and very little technical knowledge, so institutional investors simply can’t at the moment hold Bitcoin directly.” he said in July.

Stein declined to speculate on possible timeframes for an ETF approval to come from the SEC.
