It seems that ETF aka COIN isn't going to be listed any time soon. The lawyer even mentioned something like one more year (and later changed it to "No idea when").

So, are there any alternatives? Is anybody applying for a similar fund permission on some other exchange/country? Tokio, Zurich, London, Amsterdam, Shanghai?

Link?

Is it that reddit post? You know where the lawyer allegedly gave confidential information to a redditor which was then confirmed by another unknown redditor? Otherwise known as FUD! Smiley
It may be FUD, yes. I didn't talk with the lawyer or even with the redditors personally. And even if I did, I'm just another unknown bitcointalker. Smiley

All we know is that the process already took well over a year and that nobody involved gives any indicators of close completion.

For such cases there is a rule of thumb (by Taleb AFAIK): if it's overdue, assume it's only halfway through. Which in our case means at least one more year. That's why we should look around for alternatives.


EDIT: Elvar, pa  - thanks for the good news Smiley
