On July 27, Grayscale presented an argument on the approval of Bitcoin ETFs to the SEC, amid growing pressure for their approval from a growing user base.
Grayscale argued that approving all applications concurrently would ensure a level playing field, without any one fund having an early edge.
Considering this developing macroeconomic situation, what are the best cryptos to buy now?
The proposal, delineated in a letter to the SEC, comes from Craig Salm, Chief Legal Officer at Grayscale.
The thrust of the communication concerns eight Bitcoin ETF filings, inclusive of Grayscale's own application.
With this move, Salm is challenging the SEC to refrain from designating "winners and losers" but rather to bring about an unbiased and orderly resolution.
The proposition maintains that the SEC could sanction the ETFs based on the precedent set by its approvals for Bitcoin futures ETFs, drawing a strong correlation between the two fund types.
Eagerly awaiting the SEC's green light on their ETF applications are Invesco, BlackRock, Valkyrie, VanEck, Wisdom, Fidelity, and ARK Invest, who have recently included SSAs in collaboration with Coinbase in their amended applications.
