The US financial regulator is soliciting comments on NYSE’s application to list Bitwise’s cryptocurrency index ETF.

United States regulators are soliciting comments on securities exchange NYSE Arca’s request to list a Bitwise exchange-traded fund (ETF) holding both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH), according to a Dec. 10 filing.

On Nov. 26, Bitwise and NYSE submitted filings to list the ETF to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Now, the SEC is advancing the application to the next stage by soliciting comments from the industry, the filing said.

The Bitwise Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF is a proposed spot cryptocurrency index fund comprising BTC and ETH. It aims to “give investors balanced exposure to the two largest crypto assets in the world in an easy-to-access format,” the asset manager said in a Nov. 26 post on the X platform.

According to Eric Balchunas, the launch of the Bitcoin ETF in the United States was the most successful ETF launch in history.

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed a decision to approve the Franklin Templeton Crypto Index ETF until early 2025.

In a Nov. 20 letter, the regulatory agency explained that it received no comments after publishing the proposed rule change to list the crypto index ETF on the Federal Register on Oct. 8, 2024. SEC officials wrote:

The SEC continued, “Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act, designates January 6, 2025, as the date by which the Commission shall either approve or disapprove or institute proceedings to determine whether to disapprove, the proposed rule change.”
