BlackRock Expects Spot Bitcoin ETF Approval
An analyst believes BlackRock has an even chance of getting greenlight for its Bitcoin ETF,바카라 웹사이트arguing that Grayscale looks more likely to win its case against the SEC. According to Eric바카라 웹사이트Balchunas, a senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg, investment management company BlackRock바카라 웹사이트has a 50 per cent possibility of getting approval for its Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트
Balchunas’ prediction follows one from Elliott Stein, a senior litigation analyst for Bloomberg바카라 웹사이트Intelligence, who estimates that Grayscale's chance of succeeding in its legal battle with the바카라 웹사이트Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is 70 per cent.
He said SEC might view BlackRock's ETF registration favourably as a chance to “save face” by바카라 웹사이트authorising an ETF from a “trusted adult TradFi” firm instead of Grayscale.
The two sides have exchanged legal files back and forth since Grayscale appealed the SEC라이브 바카라바카라 웹사이트decision to deny its application in June 2022, and on March 7, three judges of the US federal바카라 웹사이트appellate court heard their oral testimony.

According to a study released by Web3 portfolio app De.Fi on June 27, hacks and frauds바카라 웹사이트involving decentralised finance (DeFi) cost over $204 million in the second quarter of 2023.
