The Commission on August 22, 2018 disapproved a total of nine Bitcoin ETF proposals from three different entities - - ProShares, Direxion, and GraniteShares.
The U.S. SEC has rejected a total of nine applications to list and trade various Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) from three different entities - ProShares, Direxion, and GraniteShares.
"The SEC came out and postponed that decision. A little spoiler alert, on September 30, SEC will likely postpone in again, because the market is not ready for it and the SEC hasn’t had the answers to their questions yet.”
The Commission finds that it is appropriate to designate a longer period within which to take action on the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the proposed rule change.
