WisdomTree, VanEck ETFs Listed On DTCC

On Monday, January 8, 2024, WisdomTree and VanEck have added their lsitings on DTCC and are ready for clearance. VanEck has been listed with the ticker $HODL whereas WisdomTree has added with the ticker $BTCW. Earlier, CoinGape reported that the Bitwise spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) has been listed for clearance with the DTCC with the ticker $BITB.

However, this does not necessarily mean indication of any regulatory clearance, amid the pending approval from the US SEC. Previously, the spot Bitcoin ETFs of BlackRock, Fidelity, and Invesco Galaxy have also been added to the DTCC list.

Fears over chances of the US SEC delaying the approval of Bitcoin ETF were triggered with the agency officials issuing additional comments on the form S-1s. However, analysts believe these are mere regulatory compulsions and have nothing to do with decision making in terms of approval. Earlier, CoinGape reported the comments from people associated with the ETF filers, who said the SEC has not informed them of any change in plans.
