That's true; the whole ETF approval matter has been delayed several times already. I'm not too fond of betting on something that has been postponed several times already. I have mixed feelings about the ETF approval. On the one hand, I'm positive that Bitcoin will be approved, while on the other, it's constantly being postponed. Why hasn't it been approved or even denied at this point? Why are the results delayed by that much?
In the end, in my opinion, it's going to be approved anytime in the future; however, I wouldn't bet on it; the 50/50 chance doesn't look too appealing to me. Despite what happens, even in the scenario where it's not approved, Bitcoin will do just fine without it, as it did for all these years.
Many of us are confident that a Bitcoin ETF will be approved, even though we don't know when that will happen and are still waiting for the time. But what is happening is that there are still delays that occurred before, and whether this time it will be postponed again or whether it will be immediately approved, we also don't know. But it looks like this time, it will still be postponed, and perhaps after the presidential election, there will be a bright spot.
In the meantime, we can skip the event by looking for other bets, and perhaps we can return to sports betting for a while. Or we can place bets on ETFs but don't expect much from the results because this is just for fun.

Most of the votes in the betting are yes the SEC approves the ETF, but you are right that no one knows when this decision will actually come, whether the approval of the Bitcoin ETF application comes this month or when.
It just that many people, including investors, are waiting and they hope the SEC will approve it in the near future.
But betting on something like this will be much more difficult than other bets such as sports betting, I personally don't have the desire or decision to be able to take part in betting and I would much prefer to use the money I have to bet on sports because the opportunities are more visible and the results will be exactly as scheduled.
But for those who bet on options like this, it doesn't matter because this is quite important and of course the approval of the Bitcoin ETF application could have very positive impact on the future development of Bitcoin.
Many people would vote yes, the SEC approves ETFs, but we don't know what happens. This event was full of unnecessary drama, but it seemed like it had been planned by several parties. Yes, it will be more difficult to choose the bets, but maybe people are just choosing the bets this time for fun and not taking it seriously. People are waiting for the moment of approval because they think that with the approval of the Bitcoin ETF, it can push the price to increase very high, and there may also be a long rally for the price of bitcoin so that it can break through the previous ATH price. If a Bitcoin ETF is approved, it will change cryptocurrencies in the eyes of many governments and the public, so there is a possibility that the adoption process will grow even faster.
