Progress on Grayscale’s Spot Bitcoin ETF Application
Grayscale Investments submitted an S-3 form to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on January 2nd. Furthermore, following the resignation of Grayscale Investments’ Chairman Barry Silbert last week, the company updated its application to convert the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) into a spot Bitcoin ETF.
With this update, Grayscale Investments has aligned its application for converting GBTC into a spot Bitcoin ETF with the cash redemption model expected by the SEC. The company is now in the final stages of its application to the U.S. regulator for the conversion of GBTC into a spot Bitcoin ETF.
