BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager with $10 trillion in assets under management, is preparing to launch the first spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the US market.The company has listed iShares Bitcoin Trust on DTCC (Depository Trust &amp; Clearing Corporation), which regulates transactions on the NASDAQ exchange. The fund will trade under the ticker symbol IBTC.Bloomberg ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas noted that while the IBTC name might not be the most exciting ticker choice, it is in line with BlackRock's brand and could potentially appeal to wealthy clients who use asset managers.Related News: <a href="https://en.bitcoinsistemi.com/breaking-grayscale-gets-court-approval-to-proceed-with-bitcoin-spot-etf-application/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BREAKING: Grayscale Gets Court Approval to Proceed with Bitcoin Spot ETF Application</a>According to Balchunas, this marks the first time a spot ETF has been listed on the DTCC, and none of the other potential ETFs have yet achieved this.
