 <p>For the past few months, anticipation over a Spot <a rel="dofollow" title="Bitcoin ETF" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/bitcoin-etf.html">Bitcoin ETF</a> in the United States has reached an all-time high. Subsequently, the industry-wide expectation is that those approvals are set to be issued at some point that week. Now, many of those prospective issuers are sharing their predictions, that seem to fall in line with that thinking. </p>

 <p>Speaking to writer Leo Schwartz, McClurg highlighted the process that the firm has undergone to receive approval. Specifically, he noted that he has not heard of a commission vote regarding the ETF applications. Additionally, he discussed utilizing cash for investment products. Ultimately stating that its presence allows “more market participants.” </p> 
 <p>Finally, McClurg spoke about SEC Chari Gary Gensler, who he said was “good for Bitcoin.” Gensler has long drawn the ire of the digital asset sector, mostly for his combative, enforcement-first approach to regulation. Although McClurg may view him as a benefit to Bitcoin, he has proven not to be for the great digital asset market. </p>

 <p>Still, Gensler is expected to approve the more than a dozen Spot <a rel="dofollow" title="Bitcoin ETF" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/bitcoin-etf.html">Bitcoin ETF</a> applications that the agency is reviewing. Even if it was due to court requirements, the presence of the United States’ first Spot <a rel="dofollow" title="Bitcoin ETF" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/bitcoin-etf.html">Bitcoin ETF</a>s should be a landmark development for the industry as a whole. </p>
