A surveillance agreement between Coinbase Global Inc. and Cboe’s BZX Exchange prompted a 16% increase in the Coinbase stock price on Tuesday. Five Cboe spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have decided to join Coinbase in a surveillance-sharing agreement (SSA) with the BZX Exchange.
MarketWatch figures show that COIN has increased by more than 70% in the last month, 27% over the last three months, and over 64% over the past year. Investors have witnessed a stunning 151% increase in COIN since January. According to sources, Coinbase stock’s value surged by nearly 50% even after the US SEC sued the company.
What’s the Agreement About?
According to updates to the initial reports made with the U.S. SEC, the agreement’s consummation was recorded on June 21. Early documents presented by the exchange referred to its desire to formally establish a surveillance-sharing agreement with Coinbase, which would be a big advancement for the digital currency sector.
Following the finalized contract from June of this year, Coinbase approved the surveillance-sharing contract, also known as the “Spot BTC SSA.” A term sheet outlining the terms and circumstances of the arrangement was also signed, marking a significant change in the Bitcoin exchange scene.
The submitted amendments also apply to Cboe’s five ETF proposals. Prominent organizations including Wise Origin, WisdomTree, VanEck, Invesco Galaxy, and ARK 21Shares are among those who stand to gain from this deal. The enhanced monitoring and decreased danger of manipulation that the surveillance-sharing agreement delivers stand to benefit each of these applications.
What Does This Mean For Coinbase?
It is quite uncommon for major investors to use Coinbase as their co-signatory to a shared surveillance agreement. To establish a process for detecting and minimizing market manipulation, conflicts of interest, and fraud, the SEC requires this provision. In this instance, Coinbase would be keeping an eye on the underlying asset, Bitcoin, for potential future spot-traded ETFs.
The SEC’s involvement with Coinbase has mainly been mitigated when compared to institutional support. The recovery of the COIN stock, despite the ongoing, unresolved SEC crisis, is proof of this.
This implies that the SEC-induced FUD has already been factored into the pricing. Conbase might manage more bitcoins than Grayscale Bitcoin Trust if BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF and the other five financial firms that selected it as a surveillance partner are approved.
