Gensler, who has previously acknowledged Bitcoin as a commodity, emphasized the SEC’s commitment to a “time-tested process” in reviewing the numerous applications for spot Bitcoin ETFs. Despite being pressed for his outlook on these applications, Gensler maintained a neutral stance, stating, “I’m not going to prejudge any particular application.”
Under Gensler’s leadership, the SEC has been closely scrutinizing each application. “We’ve been working very closely with the exchanges and the sponsors on these spot bitcoin ETF applications,” Gensler said.
He noted that the SEC has identified several issues and is progressing in addressing them with the applicants.
Recent meetings between the SEC and representatives from Invesco, BlackRock, and Grayscale highlight the ongoing discussions to resolve concerns related to “balance sheet impacts and risks.” These talks are part of the SEC’s thorough review process, which Gensler described as impartial and open.
Despite the growing interest and the number of applications filed, the SEC has yet to approve a spot Bitcoin ETF. Gensler has previously voiced concerns over these products’ potential for market manipulation and volatility. The crypto community and financial markets are closely watching the SEC’s decisions, as approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF could signal a significant shift in the regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies.
As the SEC continues its evaluations, stakeholders in the cryptocurrency and financial sectors remain in anticipation of the agency’s final decisions on these groundbreaking financial products.
