The delay was attributed to the regulator's need for adequate time to deliberate on the proposed rule change and the associated concerns.<\/p>\n<p>This decision impacted applications from prominent firms, including BlackRock, Valkyrie, WisdomTree, Invesco Galaxy, Bitwise, and Wise Origin.<\/p>\n<p>The recent delay comes as no shock, as it aligns with prior <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/bitcoin-etf-approval-odds-increase-to-75-following-grayscales-triumph-bloomberg-analysts\/\">predictions<\/a> by Bloomberg analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart.

Per Coinglass data, BTC and Ethereum (<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/ethereum\/\">ETH<\/a>) accounted for nearly $80 million of these positions, while traders with positions in assets like BNB, XRP, Bitcoin Cash, Solana, and others recorded millions in losses.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_354403\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-354403\" style=\"width: 1651px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-354403\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-01-092159.jpg\" alt=\"Bitcoin ETF delay\" width=\"1651\" height=\"511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-01-092159.jpg 1651w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-01-092159-300x93.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-01-092159-1024x317.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-01-092159-768x238.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-01-092159-1536x475.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1651px) 100vw, 1651px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-354403\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Coinglass<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span class=\"s4\">Meanwhile, the most significant single-order liquidation was a long BTCUSD position valued at $3.12 million on ByBit.
