SEC postpones decision in two btc (ETF)
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) postponed a decision on two proposals by the ETF earlier this year.

In an interview with Rolle Cole published in early February, Commissioner Robert Jackson said he believed the ETF proposal would meet the regulator's final criteria.
Lawyer Jake Chervinsky of the law firm Kim went further. Quindesk said earlier that it was very possible that another 10 months of development in the digital currency ecosystem might be enough to finally guarantee that the ETF
