 WHALE STREET=20

BTC rallies as finance giants including BlackRock and Fidelity announce new=
=20
crypto efforts

Some of the world=E2=80=99s biggest financial firms announced major crypto =
moves this=20
week. Asset-management giant BlackRock filed to launch a =E2=80=9Cspot=E2=
=80=9D BTC ETF;=20
Deutsche Bank requested permission from German regulators to hold crypto fo=
r=20
customers; and a consortium including Fidelity and Charles Schwab launched =
a=20
new crypto exchange targeting Wall Street. In the wake of the announcements=
,=20
BTC rallied above $30,000 for the first time since April.

So what exactly is a =E2=80=9Cspot=E2=80=9D BTC ETF?=20

Good question! Exchange-traded funds (or ETFs)=20
<https://www.coinbase.com/learn/crypto-basics/what-is-an-etf> are a hugely=
=20
popular class of financial product that generally track the price of an ass=
et=20
(like gold) or basket of assets (like the S&P 500) and can be bought or sol=
d=20
via conventional brokerages.

At bitcoin=E2=80=99s 2021 peak, a huge amount of buzz=20
<https://www.coinbase.com/learn/crypto-basics/what-is-a-bitcoin-futures-etf=
>=20
surrounded the idea of U.S.-based ETFs that would buy crypto and sell share=
s to=20
the public =E2=80=94 boosting crypto adoption in the U.S. by allowing inves=
tors=20
exposure to the asset class without having to buy or hold it themselves.

At the time, countries including Canada and Brazil had approved the sale of=
=20
such =E2=80=9Cspot=E2=80=9D BTC ETFs, sparking hopes that the U.S. would so=
on follow. Around 30=20
firms, including Grayscale and ARK Invest, unsuccessfully applied for SEC=
=20
approval to create similar products. In October 2021 the SEC approvedBTC=20
futures ETFs=20
<https://www.coinbase.com/bytes/archive/the-new-bitcoin-etf-explained>, whi=
ch=20
hold BTC futures contracts as opposed to holding BTC directly.

Why is BlackRock=E2=80=99s bitcoin ETF application such a big deal?

BlackRock is the world=E2=80=99s largest asset manager, overseeing around $=
9.5=20
trillion, and its spot BTC ETF would be the first in the U.S. if approved b=
y=20
the SEC. Following BlackRock=E2=80=99s lead, firms including WisdomTree and=
