Pantera Capital CEO: Bitcoin Traders “Overreacted” To SEC News

in #bitcoin6 years ago

“I think the SEC has been very cautious with an ETF… I still think it will be quite a long time until an ETF is approved. Here’s a perspective, the last asset class to be approved for ETF certification was copper, and copper has been on Earth for 10,000 years and it just got approved in 2012. I think Bitcoin in ETFs still have quite a ways to go.”

Good article, the only thing I really disagree with is the comparison to the copper etf taking so long to get approved. Yeah, it only happened in 2012 but etfs in general have come a long way in the last few years, they're a lot more common and acceptable. I can't predict what the SEC is going to do, but there really isn't a reason why a bitcoin etf doesn't get approved soon, it's just a matter of making sure the product has all the insurances, etc that the SEC wants to see. Time will tell...

Sort:  

Bitcoin hanging right under $6300 right now fyi

Whoever does not understand that this is good needs to just HODL. An extension of time means they are seriously considering this ETF.

Very good posts, hopefully a successful brother is always in esteem

Thank you very much, fingers crossed.

How do you think @onthehook8 what will happen next?

I know as much as the next guy/girl, which isn't much, lol.

I think it will get approved eventually...
