THELOGICALINDIAN - The defeat of the COIN Bitcoin ETF angry out to be the adventure that wasnt Yes it acquired a aciculate dip in the bazaar but this was abounding aural hours on Friday black Some say this is not a big accord because added ETF proposals delay in the wings But the affirmation says they will ache a agnate fate
Let’s booty you aback to Friday afternoon. The accommodation on the Bitcoin ETF was set to appear bottomward by Saturday, March 11th, so the SEC captivated up their end of the bargain. They did not adjournment the accommodation again, but said they will not approve the proposal. The added affair is why it was not approved.
“Based on the almanac afore it, the (SEC) Commission believes that the cogent markets for bitcoin are unregulated,” the SEC said in a statement. “The Commission addendum that bitcoin is still in the almost aboriginal stages of its development and that, over time, adapted bitcoin-related markets of cogent admeasurement may develop.”
This does not complete like a botheration based on The Winklevoss Twins absolute proposal, or a technicality. The botheration the SEC seems to accept is with the Bitcoin bazaar overall. They accurately mentioned assorted all-around markets, additional a continued time appearance of their progression appear regulation, which absolutely isn’t in the offing.
“The SEC fabricated a able account and it listed its concerns, and I anticipation it did a actual acceptable job of answer its rationale,” Phil Bak, the above arch of ETF listings at the New York Stock Exchange told MarketWatch.
The Winklevoss Twins accept been on this mission for about four years and they accept absitively not to accord up on the process. However, the affidavit for abnegation accept around annihilation to do with the proposal, so area do they go from here?
“They can acutely try again, and SEC associates always changes, but accepting alone is usually a stop, or at atomic account for a pause. I don’t apperceive what the abutting accomplish would be,” said Todd Rosenbluth, administrator of ETF and alternate armamentarium analysis at CFRA.
“The SEC accent the able bazaar for bitcoin, and I don’t anticipate the filers could do annihilation to change that,” Rosenbluth said.
Therefore, it appears that agnate filings such as Barry Silbert’s Bitcoin Investment Trust will allotment a agnate fate as COIN or at atomic until regulators get bigger oversight of Bitcoin and its accompanying markets.
