ETFs are still being debated among SEC officials, there are pros and cons. Considering that the SEC is still pursuing XRP, I don't think Bitcoin or crypto can be fully accepted by the SEC. We will know that the ETF will be approved when the SEC is really done with XRP and supports the development of XRP and crypto. Currently the issue regarding ETFs may still be just rumors and hype to attract the crypto market, but I am sure Bitcoin ETFs will be accepted but we have to wait for the time.

Just a question from a non expert.

If an ETF gets approved and it causes a liquidity crisis in regular banks (people massively withdrawing funds to invest in BTC) wouldn't that be an argument for governments to disprove an ETF?

Nixon once forbade the convertibility from dollars into gold, to protect the monetary stability of the USA. I wonder if we can expect similar measures against BTC. I'm from Europe and I just heard that I can't send money to Binance anymore. In fact I wonder how I still have to invest in BTC safely

It is very interesting that Blackrock ETF, which was on DTCC's site since August, suddenly caused so much speculation yesterday and then was taken off the site. What do you guys think? Is an ETF coming soon? How come no one took notice of DTCC's site until yesterday?

That's what they say, but no one can confirm that what they say is true, we should not be too naive and easily believe what they say.  I don't believe they listed the blackrock's ETF in August, that sounds wild.  if you check DCCT's website right now, you'll also see that ARK Invest's ETF was also listed a few days ago.  it's absurd that they listed IBTC in August and they haven't listed ARKK until now.  all are acts aimed at manipulating the market. 
But whatever the reason behind it, we don't need to worry too much, I think what we should be more concerned about is that ETFs will almost certainly be approved and we need to really prepare for that.

People have been linking the current price pump to ETF, but I dont go in that line, because I think a price change is due to multiple reasons and pinpointing one reason to it is an oversimplification. At present, just like what happened a few years back the news of Bitcoin ETF and its entry in the market developed a hype that eventually died out.

Let the SEC make their calls and get a final decision out. When it comes it will come, and we will all see ETFs on the exchanges. Till then it is speculative new piece, with people trying to make money off the hype and not the ETF. Cheesy

I believe we’re blowing the impact of ETFs out of proportion. Of course, spot ETFs will help drive Bitcoin’s value higher and might even create a threshold of resistance, which will be good for all of us, but this isn’t the only way Bitcoin will go up.

Bitcoin is a sophisticated currency. It’s the first of its kind in many ways. Its independence and potential for growth are why these institutions want to get a piece of the pie, but that won’t be the start or end of anything.

Those who continue to hold their investment in Bitcoin will continue to benefit as it grows in value. I’m more focused on when Bitcoin will hit $100K than when the US gets its first spot Bitcoin ETF.

Oh I think that an ETF is coming but perhaps not as soon as we all hope and speculate. The current pump is 100% speculation hype, I would say. 

But that does not mean that that is a bad thing. It just means that people are investing in Bitcoin ahead of the ETF, although nobody really knows when an ETF is coming but they are excited because it is definitely coming now, after there are no more obstacles which would stop it.

But who knows? We have been in for disappointments in the past as often as we have been in for nice surprises.

Either way, time to hodl Cheesy
I would agree. They'd milk the fuck out of this cow first before they sell it off the market for scrap meat. They've been biding their time all this time and it's particularly suspicious that Gary Gensler couldn't talk about what's going to happen to bitcoin ETFs after the prior ones. I don't know just might be the skeptical in me but I just can't picture in my head a world where he doesn't know what's going to happen to bitcoin ETFs from here on out. In any case, I don't really count on this ETF or whatever for bitcoin's price increase, it's a little fickle for me and we needed something more sustainable if we want to have something like the 2020s where everything outright pumped out of control.

I am not so concerned about BTC spot etf approval in the U.S., i have read from so many members in this forum that an approval is a matter of when and not if, but even if all applications get denied; i wouldn't be disappointed. I talk a lot about not your keys, not your coins, so maybe that is why i am not fully interested in spot etf's.

If institutional investors want to buy through etf's and do not want to store the keys to their coins, so be it, it is a free market and a spot etf approval would give them the opportunity to 'own' BTC. But then again, i wouldn't keep on talking about BTC spot etf's like the network depends on it, and that's what many members have been doing here lately.

Well you should be concerned. As the largest institutional Bitcoin investors are in the US. Furthermore it will promote Bitcoin adoption in a country which has, historically, been pushing against Bitcoin (albeit unsuccessfully Grin).

And yes, the other members in the forum that told you that the approval of an ETF is only a matter of time are completely right. It is now only a matter of time as there are no more hurdles in the path of a Bitcoin ETF.

The main speculation is WHEN. Thats what this hype and current pump is all about.

As for the ETF coming soon, yeah, the pressure is now on SEC to approved it. There are big guys playing on the market right now, too influential that the SEC can't really do anything about it but to approved it. And most likely it will coincide with the bull run in the next year.
What is happening now is manipulation, this is something that the cryptocurrency market has always responded well to, positive news makes it rise, and negative news turns it red, so since this is manipulation, I expect a subsequent fall, and ETFs will most likely not be accepted so quickly how we would like it. My guess is that we need to wait a little longer for this to happen, and this could coincide with the start of the bull market in 2024, although if Bitcoin continues to rise now, then perhaps the bull market for Bitcoin has already begun.

Yeah, it is very uncanny for them to removed the ticker when someone notice it on their website. So it could be that they just made a big and honest mistakes on their end, or they wanted to see the pulse of the crypto world and see what will be the reaction. And so obviously, it created a lot of noise and pushes the price to $35k. And the good thing is that even after they have taken it down, the prices keeps on that price range.

They will approve it but at the time when we don't expect it. Something like there is an element of surprise and the regular people are not able to buy. For now, SEC may actually wait for the BTC ETF news to die down and none of the crypto news sites will publish about it anymore.

Once people\s attention are once again drawn to some war somewhere, the SEC will secretly approve ETF and list it like it was approved months ago.

The chances of an ETF being approved inside US is still minimal whereas there are a bunch of ETFs in a lot of other countries around the world already Tongue
In other words people are still making ETF much bigger than it really is and the hype is not even as big as some people speculate and even link it to the recent small rise. It is not the first time there is such hype and when something is "overused" it loses its hyped nature...
They are making Bitcoin Spot ETFs and Bitcoin Spot ETFs in the USA. bigger than those services actually are.

Their exaggeration of Bitcoin Spot ETF importance instantly reminds me about some similar exaggeration in the past, with Bitcoin Futures. In 2017, Bitcoin Futures is something like dream and I can not forget how CME and CBOE Bitcoin Futures gave Bitcoin very last booster to its 2017 all time high.

After 6 years, now in 2023, what are importance of Bitcoin Futures?
How many Bitcoin Futures we have today in 2023?
More interesting question, how many Bitcoin Futures in 2022 when Bitcoin was below $16,000 that is lower than 2017 all time high?

It disappeared, but only for a few hours. Now it is visible again.

It is possible that this was a form of deliberate manipulation. The main question - who lists ETFs on this list and based on what criteria? You will find the answer to this question and you will have an answer to how important this entry is.
They tried to say it was there since August this year, to clear the fud and attack against their service.

But it's hard to believe that the iBTC ticker was there since August and no one knew about it till October.
