The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has accepted the recently filed Valkyrie spot Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded-fund (ETF) applications and opened the public comment period to get feedback before conducting their official review. It’s the last one acknowledged by the SEC as it moves ahead with its lengthy review process.
Valkyrie Spot Bitcoin ETF Accepted by the US SEC
According to an official filing on July 17, the US SEC accepted Valkyrie spot Bitcoin ETF for a proposed rule change to list and trade it under Nasdaq. The public comments are due 21 days after publication in the Federal Register. The US will officially begin its review process after soliciting public comments.
Eric Balchunas, a senior ETF analyst of Bloomberg, took to Twitter to share that the spot Bitcoin ETF application submitted by Valkyrie is confirmed by the US SEC. Also, Valkyrie was the last one to apply for a spot Bitcoin ETF amid a wave of spot Bitcoin ETF applications. He also noted the ticker “BRRR” selected by Valkyrie Bitcoin ETF for Nasdaq listing.
US SEC has already accepted the BlackRock spot Bitcoin ETF application. Other Bitcoin ETF filings by Fidelity Investments, WisdomTree, VanEck, Invesco, and ARK 21Shares are also accepted. This clearly indicates that the regulator is taking the applications seriously, with a spot Bitcoin ETF approval to be another remarkable victory for the crypto market.
