<p>On September 24, BTC exchange-traded funds&nbsp; saw major additions totaling $136 million. BlackRock’s IBIT ETF led the way by bringing in $98.9 M. Bitwise’s BITB ETF followed with $17.4 million, while Fidelity’s FBTC ETF contributed $16.8 million. Grayscale’s BTC ETF added a smaller inflow of $2.9 million.</p>  
<p>Additionally, Ethereum-focused ETFs saw strong demand. <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/solana-expected-to-reach-half-of-ethereums/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum </a>ETFs gained $62.5 million in total inflows, and BlackRock’s ETHA ETF led by securing $59.3 million. VanEck’s ETHV ETF and Invesco’s QETH ETF also saw smaller contributions of $1.9 million and $1.3 million.</p>  
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-sec-delays-decision-on-ethereum-etfs">SEC Delays Decision on Ethereum ETFs</h2>  
<p>Though BlackRock is finding success in the crypto market, regulatory challenges still remain. On September 24, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) delayed its decision on allowing options trading for BlackRock and Bitwise’s Ethereum ETFs. The SEC extended the review period with new deadlines set for November 10 and 11. This delay follows the approval of options trading for BlackRock’s IBIT Bitcoin ETF on September 20.</p>  
<p>The government&nbsp; is taking additional time to review these proposals as it continues to assess the impact of Ethereum ETFs on the stock exchange. This delay underscores the cautious approach officials are taking as they consider expanding the digital token's space within common financial protocols.</p>

<p>The company's&nbsp; involvement in crypto began cautiously but has steadily grown. In 2018, the business formed a working group to explore blockchain and electronic assets. By 2020, it&nbsp; filed documents with the <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/emmer-blasts-secs-gensler-for-crypto-regulatory-failures-as-2024-elections-loom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SEC </a>to include Bitcoin futures in two of its funds, moving from research to active investment in virtual products.</p>
