Bitwise has also updated its <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1763415/000199937123000735/bitwise-s1a_120423.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">application</a> to launch a similar tool.</p>

   <p lang="en" dir="ltr">What does this mean? Without having read them — it just means that the wheel is still turning. Both the SEC and these issuers are working hard to iron things out. These filings are likely the result of many conversations and a lot of man hours on/between both sides.</p>— James Seyffart (@JSeyff) <a href="https://twitter.com/JSeyff/status/1731804911350804573?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">December 4, 2023</a>

<p>The updates could be a step that allowed companies to “tailor” applications to the regulator’s requirements.</p>

<p>BlackRock’s updated document included new language about the efforts the trust administrator will make to monitor unusual price movements. It also added anti-money laundering compliance language and included a verified PricewaterhouseCoopers statement.</p> 
<p>Bloomberg analysts <a href="https://crypto.news/bloomberg-analyst-reveals-realistic-approval-date-for-bitcoin-etf/">expect</a>&nbsp;approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF in the U.S. in January 2024. James Seyffarth and Eric Balchunas&nbsp;believe there is a 90% chance of a spot Bitcoin ETF being approved before January 10, 2024, the day by which the SEC must make a final decision on ARK Invest’s application.</p>
