VanEck, one of many first companies on the earth to ever file for a Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF), isn’t giving up on its plans to launch a spot Bitcoin ETF in the USA.

The agency has refiled an software for a physically-backed Bitcoin ETF with the U.S. Securities and Trade Fee (SEC).

Filed on June 24, VanEck’s newest Bitcoin ETF software comes months after the SEC rejected its earlier spot Bitcoin ETF request on Nov. 12, 2021. The securities regulator based mostly its choice on the ETF on its alleged lack of ability to satisfy requirements to guard traders and the general public curiosity in addition to to “stop fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices.”

Within the newest submitting, VanEck offered a large variety of causes for the SEC to approve a Bitcoin ETF this time.

“Approving this proposal — and others prefer it — would offer U.S. ETFs and mutual funds with a U.S.-listed and controlled merchandise to offer such entry relatively than counting on both flawed merchandise or merchandise listed and primarily regulated in different nations.”

As beforehand reported by Cointelegraph, Canada was one of many first nations on the earth to debut a spot Bitcoin ETF with the launch of the Objective Bitcoin ETF in February 2021.

VanEck went on to say that approving a spot Bitcoin ETF can be a logical step for the SEC after the authority determined to permit Bitcoin futures-based ETFs. As beforehand reported, VanEck’s BTC futures ETF began buying and selling on the Chicago Board Choices Trade on Nov. 16, 2021.

“After issuing the Bitcoin futures approvals which conclude the CME Bitcoin futures market is a regulated market […] the one constant consequence can be approving spot Bitcoin ETPs on the idea that the Bitcoin futures market can also be a regulated market of great dimension because it pertains to the Bitcoin spot market,” the brand new submitting reads.
