In <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cboe.com\/publish\/ComLet\/20180323.pdf\">a detailed, 9-page letter<\/a> to the regulatory body, Cboe president and COO, Chris Concannon, makes an appeal for their acceptance by addressing many of the SEC\u2019s most pressing concerns about digital currencies.<\/p>\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/divisions\/investment\/noaction\/2018\/cryptocurrency-011818.htm\">a January letter<\/a>, the SEC indicated that it was not inclined to accept cryptocurrency ETFs as a viable financial product. Dalia Blass, director of investment management at the SEC, wrote,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cthere are a number of significant investor protection issues that need to be examined before sponsors begin offering these funds to retail investors.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Specifically, Concannon\u2019s letter addresses regulatory concerns brought up by the SEC in January, including issues related to<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Valuation<\/li>\n<li>Liquidity<\/li>\n<li>Custody<\/li>\n<li>Arbitrage<\/li>\n<li>Manipulation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The SEC\u2019s January letter indicated that they would not approve cryptocurrency ETFs until these concerns were addressed.<\/p>\n<p>The Cboe\u2019s letter offers a detailed response and possible solutions for each of the SEC\u2019s primary concerns. As an industry leader in crypto integration, the Cboe drew from their extensive experience and expertise to make their argument.<\/p>\n<h2>The Benefits of an ETF<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23092\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23092\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-23092\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bitcoin-etf-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bitcoin-etf-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bitcoin-etf.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23092\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bitcoin ETFs might be the next derivative instruments to be launched using the cryptocurrency after CBOE\u2019s futures.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>While ETFs can encompass many different financial products, they would allow investors to purchase groups of digital currencies instead of making individual investments in different currencies.<\/p>\n<h3>As a result, investors could be less exposed to the wild price swings that are frequently featured in crypto markets.<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/bitcoin\/\">Bitcoin<\/a> is the first and most popular digital currency, so it receives a lot of investor attention. However, with <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/ico-database\/\">a growing number of altcoins<\/a> asserting their prominence, it\u2019s becoming increasingly apparent that there are <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/\">several worthy pursuits<\/a> for crypto investors. An ETF allows investors to pursue additional currencies while still maintaining a stake in Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>In the past year, the crypto landscape expanded to include a lot more than just Bitcoin, and some investors would like to explore those options as well, and a bucketed investment approach can make the most sense.<\/p>\n<h2>An Uncertain Future<\/h2>\n<p>In their concluding remarks, Concannon notes,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cCboe applauds the Commission for the measured approach that it has taken thus far related to cryptocurrency that has allowed room for innovated and served to place the United States at the forefront of the emerging cryptocurrency industry.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>However, the SEC hasn\u2019t issued a response, and it\u2019s unclear if the Cboe\u2019s letter will change their thinking on the issue. What\u2019s more, given the tepid reaction to Bitcoin futures products, the potential for crypto ETFs to be a disruptive force in the investment industry may be exaggerated<\/p>\n<p>We are keeping an eye out for an official response from the SEC, which should indicate how they are thinking about this issue in light of the Cboe\u2019s recommendations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year, the Chicago-based derivatives exchange market, Cboe, made headlines when it launched the first Bitcoin Futures on December 10th.
