It was highly anticipated that the SEC would approve the Bitcoin ETF’s spot application, and the company held a meeting with Gary Gensler’s team for the first time.
Just days before the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s decision on the Bitcoin Spot ETF request, one company held its first meeting with Gary Gensler’s team.
HashDex, one of the companies awaiting approval for its Bitcoin Spot ETF application, met with SEC officials again yesterday, but this time it was said that it met with a group directly affiliated with Gensler.
“Different from Other Meetings”
Bloomberg ETF Analyst James Seifert provided an overview of the session. Mr. Seyffart made the following statement in a tweet on the subject:
“I am on vacation this week and may miss many developments, but I would like to point out that HashDex met with the SEC again today (*yesterday).” At this meeting, the team told Gensler that I had reported this directly. For this reason, meetings with the “Trade and Markets” or “Corporate Finance” departments are different from many other departments. ”
Official documents shared by Seyffart show that Samantha Ostrom met with Hashdex’s Samir Kerbage on behalf of a policy council affiliated with Gensler.
The document also includes information that NYSE Arca’s proposed rule changes for the HashDex Bitcoin Spot ETF were discussed at the meeting.
