SINGAPORE (Reuters) – The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has yet to approve any spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund listings to date, commissioner Mark Uyeda said at the sidelines of a forum in Singapore on Wednesday.
“We’ve had a number of applications … none of those have been approved to date,” said Uyeda, who was in Singapore to speak at the ICI Global Asset Management Asia Forum.
Uyeda said there are applications filed by exchanges, and the SEC considers them “as they come up”.
