- SEC delays CoinShares’ XRP, Litecoin ETF decision.
- Community anticipates eventual approval amid market stability.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has delayed its decision on CoinShares’ proposed spot XRP and Litecoin ETFs. The decision, announced in an official release, indicates further solicitation for public comments before any conclusion is reached.
The decision impacts broader market sentiment, highlighting regulatory hurdles in crypto ETF approvals, yet maintains expectations of eventual progression.
CoinShares, alongside other prominent firms such as 21Shares and Grayscale, is under SEC review for spot XRP and Litecoin ETFs. The SEC’s cautious approach involves feedback solicitation and procedural thoroughness.
The SEC’s delay illustrated its continued caution with crypto-based ETFs, affecting asset managers’ planning. However, market reactions remained stable. James Seyffart, a Bloomberg ETF analyst, suggested potential approval after procedural steps, stating:
“The SEC is very likely to delay/deny these ETFs until the final deadline. I expect eventual approval but not until every procedural step has been exhausted.”
Historical patterns of initial delays followed by approvals for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs suggest a similar trajectory for XRP and Litecoin. The market awaits SEC’s decision, with many industry insiders expecting eventual approval.
Potential financial and regulatory outcomes include heightened institutional interest post-approval, mirroring past market trends. Expert opinions and regulated futures markets support the expectation of eventual ETF approvals in the current climate.
