Bitcoin-ETF Issuers Clear Major Hurdle on Path to SEC Approval

Firms looking to launch spot-Bitcoin exchange-traded funds cleared a major hurdle this week on the path to gaining sign-off from US regulators in coming days.

Securities and Exchange Commission staff told several exchanges and issuers seeking to list the ETFs that they should submit a final version of a key document as soon as Friday, according to four people familiar with the matter who asked not to be named because the discussions are private. The staff had no additional feedback on the paperwork for several of the firms after the latest amendments, two of the people said.
