LEARNING FROM WOUNDS: WHAT LIES AHEAD FOR OTHER ETFS
1. Learning From Wounds: What Lies Ahead For Other ETFs
teamsteverhyner.com/learning-from-wounds-what-lies-ahead-for-other-etfs/
Considering the decision made on the Winklevoss Bitcoin ETF by the Securities and Exchange Commission on
Friday, March 10, it is not likely that the other two Bitcoin ETF applications would be approved.
SolidX expects its decision soon as well as a firm run by technology entrepreneur Barry Silbert which last filed with
the SEC to list its Bitcoin Investment Trust on the New York Stock Exchange.
While it would be expected that the others pending a decision will study what went wrong the twins’ filing and
improve on what could be considered their wrong moves, it would seem such a move would be futile as the chance
of their ETF applications’ failure would be for the same reasons.

2. SEC wants regulation
The issue of regulation, which SEC cites for its objection, cannot be
solved by the applicants themselves.
It says:
“As discussed further below, the Commission is disapproving this
proposed rule change because it does not find the proposal to be
consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Exchange Act, which
requires, among other things, that the rules of a national
securities exchange be designed to prevent fraudulent and
manipulative acts and practices and to protect investors and the public interest. The Commission
believes that, in order to meet this standard, an exchange that lists and trades shares of commodity-
trust exchange-traded products (“ETPs”) must, in addition to other applicable requirements, satisfy
two requirements that are dispositive in this matter. First, the exchange must have surveillance
sharing agreements with significant markets for trading the underlying commodity or derivatives on
that commodity. And second, those markets must be regulated.”
Simply put, the reason for the rejection was that the majority of the exchanges are unregulated which, as it is today,
seems to be beyond what one or both companies seeking an approval can fix on their own within the shortest time.
The future is optimistic
According to the CEO of CryptoCompare, which brings the latest streaming pricing data of cryptocurrencies, Charles
Hayter, the failure to get the ETF approved means back to the drawing board this time for the Winklevoss twins as
they take advice and smart from their wounds.
He adds in an email:
“It is expected that they won’t give up and usual information will be disseminated as to the reason for
the refusal. This will allow for a second run at the goal. Besides that, there are other jurisdictional
options that will offer alternative listing options.”
The failure also points to the need for the ecosystem to the entire exchanges ecosystem to work towards putting
mechanisms in place to meet SEC’s requirements. With the Bitcoin community growing larger by the day, the future
is optimistic for an ETF.

The quick drop in price after the SEC’s decision then rebound illustrates to me intrinsic value in Bitcoin. I
saw a crazy prediction of $13,000 Bitcoin one year from now. I didn’t put that article in my curation today
but the premise seemed intriguing. You can read it at Coin Telegraph. You can also become a Bitcoin miner
at just about any level of investment. Click here for more information or email me: steve@prplus.us.
