The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed<\/a> a decision on several applications for a spot Bitcoin-ETF<\/a> from ARK Invest and 21Shares until January 10, 2024.<\/p>\n

“The SEC believes it prudent to allow a longer period for issuing an order approving or denying the applications, so that it has sufficient time to review the documents,” the regulator said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The agency also moved<\/a> the decision on the Global X Bitcoin Trust ETF to November 21, 2023.<\/p>\n

Representatives Mike Flood, Wiley Nickel, Tom Emmer and Richie Torres say that the regulator “discriminates against spot crypto products,” citing the Grayscale Investments precedent.<\/p>\n

“Regulated spot Bitcoin-ETP<\/span> will provide enhanced investor protection, offering safer and more transparent access to investment vehicles,” the letter says.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Chairman’s stance<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On September 27 Gensler is due to testify before the House Committee on Financial Services. According to the prepared testimony<\/a>, he remains intent on pursuing a tough stance on digital assets.<\/p>\n

\n

“Given the industry’s widespread noncompliance with securities laws, it is not surprising that we see a host of problems in these markets. We’ve seen a similar story before. It harks back to the 1920s, before federal securities laws were enacted,” the official said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He also reiterates his thesis that the majority of digital assets and related companies fall under securities laws.<\/p>\n

Gensler cited the agency’s rules, including the April press release<\/a>, which states that crypto platforms are already part of the definition of an exchange, including DeFi protocols.<\/p>\n

As noted in September 2023, the head of the SEC once again \u043f\u043e\u0434\u0442\u0432\u0435\u0440\u0434\u0438\u043b<\/a> his position on digital assets, noting their potential harm to the global financial system.<\/p>\n

In August, U.S. Representative Warren Davidson \u043f\u0440\u0438\u0437\u0432\u0430\u043b \u043e\u0442\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0438\u0442\u044c<\/a> Gensler from his post as head of the agency amid a bungled case against Grayscale. He was preceded by a partial defeat of the regulator in the Ripple case Ripple<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Subsequently, the media \u043e\u0431\u0432\u0438\u043d\u0438\u043b\u0438<\/a> the SEC chairman of turning the agency into a “banana republic”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
