BlackRock argues SEC has no grounds to treat crypto futures and spot ETFs differently By Cointelegraph

BlackRock (NYSE:) has argued that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission doesn’t have any legitimate reason to treat spot-crypto and crypto-futures exchange-traded fund applications differently.

BlackRock’s plan for a spot-Ether (ETH) ETF called the “iShares Trust” was officially confirmed on Nov. 9, after Nasdaq submitted the 19b-4 application form to the SEC on the firm’s behalf.
