SEC Approves Generic Listing Standards Clearing Path For Crypto ETPs

The SEC has approved “generic listings standards” that will clear the way for spot crypto ETFs to launch, reported Bloomberg’s ETF expert Eric Balchunas on Wednesday.

The move allows exchanges to list ETPs holding spot commodities, including digital assets, without requiring individual SEC approval for each product. It also eliminates the lengthy, case-by-case approval process that previously required months or years.

“This is the crypto ETP framework we’ve been waiting for,” commented James Seyffart, who added:

SEC Smoothing The Path For Crypto

Basically, if the asset has a futures contract trading on a regulated exchange such as Coinbase for six months, it will be allowed to become a spot ETF, he explained. Aside from Bitcoin and Ethereum, there were 12 crypto assets trading as futures on Coinbase, which now have an easier path to becoming spot ETFs.

Nova Dius President Nate Geraci also applauded the move:

Two years ago, the previous SEC was still battling Grayscale over a spot Bitcoin ETF, he said before adding its amazing how far we’ve come.

The regulator also approved the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, which holds spot digital assets based on the CoinDesk 5 Index, and afternoon-settled Bitcoin ETF options. However, it delayed the decision on the Truth Social Bitcoin ETF.

Altcoin ETFs Due Today

This week is a big one for altcoin ETFs with two highly anticipated launches today.

The REX-Osprey XRP ETF (XRPR) and the REX-Osprey Dogecoin ETF (DOJE) are both expected to begin trading on Thursday.

It will be a first for a spot XRP fund and a spot meme coin fund in the United States, and analysts expect a slew of them to follow.

Shocking OpenVPP Partnership Claim Draws Urgent Scrutiny

The post Shocking OpenVPP Partnership Claim Draws Urgent Scrutiny appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The cryptocurrency world is buzzing with a recent controversy surrounding a bold OpenVPP partnership claim. This week, OpenVPP (OVPP) announced what it presented as a significant collaboration with the U.S. government in the innovative field of energy tokenization. However, this claim quickly drew the sharp eye of on-chain analyst ZachXBT, who highlighted a swift and official rebuttal that has sent ripples through the digital asset community. What Sparked the OpenVPP Partnership Claim Controversy? The core of the issue revolves around OpenVPP’s assertion of a U.S. government partnership. This kind of collaboration would typically be a monumental endorsement for any private cryptocurrency project, especially given the current regulatory climate.

Commissioner Hester Peirce’s statement was a crucial turning point in this unfolding story.
