KEY POINTS

  • Bitwise has also filed for other crypto ETFs, including a proposal for a Dogecoin ETF
  • The development triggered comparisons between the SEC under Gensler and the SEC under an Acting Chair
  • Gensler waited for his last year in power to approve spot Bitcoin ETFs early in 2024

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved NYSE Arca's filing to list and trade shares of Bitwise's combined Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded fund (ETF) on an "accelerated basis," marking a major milestone in the journey of cryptocurrency ETFs.
