Spot bitcoin exchange traded funds, or ETFs, have been a hot topic in the crypto community for many years, but have recently gotten more attention due to Jacobi Asset Management listing Europe\u2019s first bitcoin spot ETF almost two years after its initial approval. Meanwhile, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission recently delayed deadlines for bitcoin spot ETF applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We dive into what\u2019s going on with the bitcoin spot ETFs in the U.S., why it matters and the odds of the SEC approving one in the near future. We also talk about Europe\u2019s first bitcoin spot ETF, how these investment vehicles in general could impact crypto exchanges\u2019 trading volumes and what else is in store for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
