The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) said in a regulatory filing that it will seek public comments on a proposal to list Bitcoin ETFs on Cboe Global Markets Inc. It’s not the first time this year that the SEC has delayed giving an answer to crypto advocates.
Contrary to US SEC’s views, UK watchdog Financial Conduct Authority said more people see crypto assets as a mainstream investment rather than a ‘gamble’ as ownership of Bitcoin and similar crypto currencies has risen to 2.3 million adults in Britain this year.
Regulators have repeatedly warned investors about the ‘speculative’ nature of largely unregulated crypto assets, which have tanked between 40-50 per cent from the highs of May. However, global securities index publisher MSCI is looking at launching indexes for cryptocurrency assets, another step towards mainstream acceptance for digital currencies.
“It has been an eventful week for cryptos. Both BTC and ETH are trading almost unchanged from the beginning of the week. We might see a bit of a selloff as sellers are getting more active. Polkadot continues to be under huge selling pressure. The US Dollar-pegged crypto, Tether, which is usually very stable, is marginally up,” Edul Patel, CEO and Co-founder, Mudrex.
Bluechip venture capital funds, known for making risky bets, are eager to invest in Indian crypto and blockchain startups, but say the uncertain policy environment is standing in their way.
