The bid for the first (BTC) spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the United States is gaining traction following BlackRock’s recent application, with both former applicants and new players seeking permission from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to list a crypto ETF.

Although it’s unclear whether the SEC will finally allow a Bitcoin ETF, BlackRock’s initiative appears to have “breathed new life into the race” amid the ongoing crackdown on the crypto industry.
