Grayscale Continues its Crypto Expansion
Grayscale has turned out to be a go-to investment option for several institutional investors in absence of any regulated investment product. The digital asset manager is working to convert its flagship investment product the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust into a Bitcoin ETF in near future and CEO Sonnenshein believes the approval is a matter of “when” rather than “if.” He is confident that the SEC would eventually approve the Bitcoin ETF despite current delays.
The US SEC has postponed its decision on three Bitcoin ETFs until now and while several more are pending approval. The chief regulatory body in the US had earlier rejected all ETF proposals back in 2017-18 citing small market size. Grayscale also got third approval from SEC for its $GDLC fund only last week, making it their third SEC reporting product.
