This news is great for bitcoin and Grayscale and demonstrates the importance of bitcoin in asset allocations.
However, it should be noted that the US SEC is doing a disservice to the citizens of the US (and world) by preventing bitcoin ETFs. Grayscale (GBTC) is fine for what it is, but has traded at a premium to the underlying fiat price of BTC whereas an ETF would help narrow the spread, or perhaps more likely, set the price of bitcoin since it would trade with significant volume.
I hope Grayscale keeps growing, but competition either with ETFs or similar vehicles to GBTC would be very beneficial.
