TL: DR Van Eck Solid X resubmitted ETF proposal after withdrawing application due to the government shutdown Once published, the timeline will reset, giving the SEC another 240 days to approve or reject the ETF This delay may prove beneficial for the ETF application, as market conditions seem more stable and less prone to clear signs of manipulation (compared to 2018). It appears that not all hope is lost, as it was just announced today that the VanEck Solidx Bitcoin ETF rule change proposal had been re-submitted. The proposal was initially withdrawn due to the Government shutdown. In a previous article , we had speculated about what the outcome of the ETF decision would be as the February 27 th deadline approached and the Government was still shut-down. Many people assumed that the ETF would be ‘auto approved’ because of the Government’s inability to conduct a thorough review process while being understaffed. However, this claim was disproved when Van Eck CEO, Jan van Ec...

Nasdaq is already in possession of an advanced proprietary surveillance technology that scans transactions and seeks out fraudulent patterns.

Others seek out this technology to attract new clients, such as institutional and high-profile investors. Tony Sio, the head of exchange and regulator surveillance team at Nasdaq, provided better insight into questions that the exchanges have to answer to pass the test. Sio also pointed out that this is a new practice at Nasdaq, as their usual clients were always well-known. However...
