Fox Business journalist Eleanor Terret broke the news on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>The development comes on the heels of a meeting held last week between SEC officials and representatives of at least seven companies \u2014 including BlackRock, Grayscale Investments, ARK Investments, and 21Shares \u2014 that have <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/spot-bitcoin-etf-filings-blackrock-wisdomtree-amend-form-s-1\/\">filed<\/a> proposals in the US for a spot Bitcoin ETF.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<h2>SEC Plans To Approve Spot Bitcoin ETF In Early Jan 2024<\/h2>\n<p>One of the key revelations that have emerged from the meeting is that the US markets regulator could green-light a spot Bitcoin ETF as early as January 2024. The SEC is currently evaluating a joint proposal from ARK and 21Shares and will likely make a final decision by Jan 10, 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Speculation is rife that the SEC will approve a flurry of spot Bitcoin ETF applications during this window. Wall Street\u2019s top cop has directed issuers to make final amendments to their applications by Dec. 29, warning that those failing to meet the Dec 29 deadline will not be considered in the first wave of potential approvals slated for early Jan 2024.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-171045\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-25-at-2.21.56%E2%80%AFPM.png\" alt=\"US SEC announces last date for making changes to Bitcoin ETF applications\" width=\"1171\" height=\"695\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p>Top financial institutions have been making a beeline to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/spot-bitcoin-etf-filings-blackrock-wisdomtree-amend-form-s-1\/\">launch<\/a> a spot Bitcoin ETF. The long list includes big names such as BlackRock, Invesco, VanEck, Wisdomtree, Fidelity, and ARK Investments, among others.<\/p>\n<h3>A Shift In Regulatory Stance Towards Bitcoin ETFs<\/h3>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p>The urgency of the Dec 29 deadline marks a crucial shift in the US SEC\u2019s stance on Bitcoin ETFs. The agency has rejected multiple applications for a spot Bitcoin ETF in recent years, citing fraud and price manipulation concerns.<\/p>\n<p>However, recent developments \u2014 such as the launch of Ether futures ETFs, and favorable court rulings for Grayscale and Ripple \u2014 have <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/odds-of-spot-bitcoin-etf-approval-by-us-sec-rises-above-90-bloomberg\/\">raised<\/a> the odds of spot Bitcoin products getting regulatory approval in the US.<\/p>\n<p>If the SEC were to give its blessing to a spot Bitcoin ETF, it would herald a new beginning for the crypto community. Newcomers still find the complexities of exchanges, crypto wallets, and private keys quite overwhelming.\u00a0A spot Bitcoin ETF would give investors direct exposure to Bitcoin without actually having to hold the cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<p>The chatter in the crypto community is that should the SEC give its blessing to spot Bitcoin products, it will trigger a massive rally in Bitcoin prices, pushing the crypto market even higher. Last week, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/bitcoin-etfs-set-to-boost-retail-investment-says-crypto-veteran\/\">CoinGape reported<\/a> that should Bitcoin ETFs get regulatory approval in the US, it would also boost retail investment.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<div class=\"m-on mobiless\">\n<div id=\"social-section-new\">\n<p>\u2713 Share:<\/p>\n<p>                                  <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new wp_new\" href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/us-sec-announces-dec-29-deadline-for-spot-bitcoin-etf-applications\/\" style=\"display: block\">  <i class=\"fa fa-whatsapp\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n                                <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new tw_new_logo\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/us-sec-announces-dec-29-deadline-for-spot-bitcoin-etf-applications\/\"><br \/>\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" class=\"mb-1\" alt=\"coingape\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/14164721\/x-logo.png\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/14164721\/x-logo.png\" class=\"mb-1\" alt=\"coingape\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\"\/><\/noscript><br \/>\n<\/a>\n                                <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>          <!-- \n\n<div class=\"m-on pl-2 pr-2\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"row\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"col-6 pr-2\">\n         \n\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n             \n            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-7-crypto-marketing-firms-of-the-year\/?utm_source=abovesidebartabnews&utm_medium=organicarticle\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"%20viewBox='0%200%20834%20833'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/15175104\/top_crypto_marketing_agencies.jpg\" ><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/15175104\/top_crypto_marketing_agencies.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" ><\/noscript><\/div>\n\n\n                \n\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top Crypto Marketing Firms \/ Agencies 2023; Here\u2019s Best Picks [Updated]\n <\/div>\n\n\n            <\/a>\n          \n            <\/div>\n\n\n            <\/div>\n\n\n                  \n\n<div class=\"col-6 pl-2\">\n                 \n\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n             \n            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-10-web-3-games-to-explore-in-2023-here-list\/?utm_source=priceanalysisbar&utm_medium=organicarticle\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"%20viewBox='0%200%20834%20833'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\" ><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" ><\/noscript><\/div>\n\n\n                \n\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top 10 Web3 Games To Explore In 2023; Here List\n <\/div>\n\n\n            <\/a>\n          \n            <\/div>\n\n\n            <\/div>\n\n\n                <\/div>\n\n\n        <\/div>\n\n                    --><\/p>\n<div class=\"TabDicA\">\n<div class=\"TBAcon \">\n<div class=\"authorFlip tabcS\" id=\"TabA171044\">\n<div class=\"authorBox\">\n<div class=\"author_Name\">\n<!--\n                                      \n\n<div class=\"getAuthoname\">\n                                          \n                                                                                 \n                                       <\/div>\n\n \n--><\/p>\n<p>CoinGape comprises an experienced team of native content writers and editors working round the clock to cover news globally and present news as a fact rather than an opinion.
