We are less than a week away from Benzinga's Future Of Digital Assets Event in New York, scheduled on Nov.14. If the ETFs are approved, you surely do not want to miss the event to find out more about the impact on the crypto market and if not approved you still do not want to miss seeing what is in store in January.
BlackRock seems to have the highest traction from investors. With $8.5 trillion in assets under management, analysts assume that BlackRock approval could bring $200 billion to Bitcoin and push BTC price to $330,000.
CoinDesk cites a source close to the matter and reports that the U.S. SEC has opened talks with Grayscale Investments for converting its trust product GBTC to a spot Bitcoin ETF.
Grayscale's chief legal officer, Craig Salm said, "There are still things that have to be worked through," Salm said in an interview, also noting that others among the applicants for bitcoin ETFs – a group that includes financial giants BlackRock and Fidelity – seem to be making progress in SEC talks with their own registrations." He goes on to add that it is "a matter of when" and not a "matter of if anymore".
