Grayscale Plans to Convert $GBTC Fund into a Bitcoin ETF
The latest SEC approval for Grayscale’s GDLC funds comes as a major milestone given it is preparing to convert its GBTC fund into a Bitcoin ETF in near future. The approval also highlights SEC’s focus on regulating the crypto market amid growing demand from current and former lawmakers. Former CFTC chair and current SEC commissioner have called upon SEC to approve the Bitcoin ETF.
The SEC has delayed its decision on three Bitcoin ETF proposals till now and has left Bitcoin out of its yearly regulatory agenda.
Recently, US Senator Elizabeth Warren wrote to SEC giving them a July 28 deadline to share measures they have taken to ensure investors’ protection. The call for regulating the crypto market has increased in recent times with the SEC chief Gary Gensler himself advocating for implementing traditional markets like investor protection norms on the crypto platforms. However, SEC is yet to offer any framework or guidelines to implement the same.
