However, Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart, speaking on the X platform, claimed that there are, in fact, 11 spot Bitcoin ETF applications currently under review by the SEC.

Chairman Gensler’s stance on the digital asset sector has been notably cautious and even critical. At the 2023 Securities Enforcement Forum, he cautioned: “Don’t get me started on crypto.” Despite this, Bitcoin’s value has surged this week, fueled by speculation that the SEC is nearing approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF.

Several major financial firms, including BlackRock, Bitwise, WisdomTree, Fidelity, and Invesco, have pending applications for Bitcoin-related funds in the United States. The renewed optimism for a spot Bitcoin ETF has gained momentum with the recent court decision and the entry of the world’s largest asset manager into the arena.
