Grayscale had sued the SEC's blockage of creating a spot bitcoin ETF, arguing that this would benefit investors and allow redemptions for its trust.<\/p>\n<p>GBTC shares trade at a significant discount to its net asset value because it does not allow investors to redeem their shares. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/Grayscale\">Data<\/a> from Coinglass shows that the GBTC discount has narrowed to a yearly low of 15.88% as of Oct. 13.<\/p>\n<p>Analysts believe the discount would close if the trust is converted into a spot Bitcoin ETF, as it would expose investors to the flagship digital asset without needing to own it directly.<\/p>\n<p>In its defense, the financial regulator regularly claimed that applicants lacked sufficient measures to safeguard investors from market manipulation. The SEC has yet to approve any <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/nasdaq-refiles-blackrocks-spot-bitcoin-etf-application-names-coinbase-as-surveillance-sharing-partner\/\">application<\/a> for a spot Bitcoin ETF despite the many applications from top investment firms, including BlackRock, the world's largest asset management firm, during the past decade.<\/p>\n<p>However, market observers believe that the regulator's stance might be softening, with Bloomberg ETF analysts pegging the possibility of a spot BTC ETF approval at 90% recently. According to the experts, the SEC's increased communication with a fund sponsor has boosted their confidence that the financial watchdog might be finally ready to cave into the demand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This back-and-forth between the SEC and fund sponsors is standard practice for new launches but a first for spot Bitcoin ETF applications,&#8221; they <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JSeyff\/status\/1712900403090559398?t=-VxmibEFyC06i7ks14lgwQ&s=19\">wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin rose 4% to touch $28,000 early Monday, Oct. 16, as anticipation of the first spot Bitcoin ETF in the US increases.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grayscale said it is &#8220;operationally ready&#8221; to convert its Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) into an exchange-traded fund (ETF) immediately after the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approves its application.
