Australian Securities Exchange Anticipates Approval of Spot Bitcoin ETFs by 2024

澳洲證券交易所預計 2024 年批准現貨比特幣 ETF

The Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), Australia's primary stock exchange, is poised to authorize the establishment of spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) before the end of 2024. This move aligns with recent trends observed in the United States and Hong Kong, where similar products have gained significant traction.

澳洲主要證券交易所澳洲證券交易所 (ASX) 準備在 2024 年底前授權設立現貨比特幣交易所交易基金 (ETF)。關注。

VanEck Australia and BetaShares, a domestic ETF-focused fund manager, are anticipated to receive approval for their spot Bitcoin ETF applications by year's end, according to sources cited by Bloomberg. This development mirrors the surge in spot Bitcoin ETF applications in the United States, where eleven products have collectively amassed an impressive $53 billion in assets under management (AUM).

據彭博社引述消息人士稱，VanEck Australia 和國內 ETF 基金管理公司 BetaShares 的現貨比特幣 ETF 申請預計將在年底前獲得批准。這一發展反映了美國現貨比特幣 ETF 申請的激增，其中 11 種產品總共累積了令人印象深刻的 530 億美元的管理資產 (AUM)。

Industry experts attribute the surge in demand for spot Bitcoin ETFs to the substantial inflows witnessed in U.S.-based counterparts. Justin Arzadon, head of digital at BetaShares, emphasized the enduring presence of digital assets, as evidenced by the inflows into U.S. ETFs.

行業專家將現貨比特幣 ETF 需求的激增歸因於美國同行的大量資金流入。 BetaShares 數位業務主管 Justin Arzadon 強調了數位資產的持久存在，美國 ETF 的資金流入就證明了這一點。

Jeff Yew, CEO of Monochrome, a crypto asset management firm pursuing a competing exchange application, characterized Australia as a "crypto-heavy" nation. He projects that Australian spot Bitcoin ETFs could attract $3 billion to $4 billion in net inflows within their first three years of operation.

致力於競爭性交易所應用程式的加密資產管理公司 Monochrome 的執行長 Jeff Yew 將澳洲描述為一個「加密貨幣重」的國家。他預計，澳洲現貨比特幣 ETF 在營運的頭三年內可能會吸引 30 億至 40 億美元的淨流入。

Yew highlighted the substantial demand for Bitcoin ETFs among fund managers seeking Bitcoin exposure, self-managed super fund (SMSF) investors, and retail investors. Currently, SMSF investors directly access Bitcoin through crypto exchanges, a practice that Yew deems inherently risky and akin to a "ticking time bomb" due to potential exchange vulnerabilities.

Yew 強調了尋求比特幣投資的基金經理人、自我管理超級基金 (SMSF) 投資者和散戶投資者對比特幣 ETF 的巨大需求。目前，SMSF 投資者透過加密貨幣交易所直接獲取比特幣，Yew 認為這種做法本身就存在風險，並且由於潛在的交易所漏洞而類似於「定時炸彈」。

Bitcoin ETFs, on the other hand, provide regulatory oversight and enhanced security, ensuring a stark contrast with direct crypto exchange exposure. Monochrome initially submitted an application for a spot Bitcoin ETF to the ASX on July 14, 2023, but subsequently transitioned to Cboe Australia due to the ASX's protracted approval process.

另一方面，比特幣 ETF 提供監管監督和增強的安全性，確保與直接加密貨幣交易所的風險形成鮮明對比。 Monochrome 最初於 2023 年 7 月 14 日向澳洲證券交易所提交了現貨比特幣 ETF 申請，但由於澳洲證券交易所的核准流程曠日持久，隨後轉至澳洲芝加哥選擇權交易所 (Cboe Australia)。

Yew cited Cboe Australia's more pragmatic timeline and transparent listing framework as motivations for the switch, acknowledging the challenges the ASX has faced with regulatory matters and its limited appetite for product innovation. Despite the setback, Yew remains optimistic about Cboe Australia approving Monochrome's application "within the next few weeks."

Yew引用了澳洲芝加哥選擇交易所更務實的時間表和透明的上市框架作為轉變的動機，並承認澳洲證券交易所在監管問題上面臨的挑戰以及其對產品創新的興趣有限。儘管遭遇挫折，Yew 對澳洲芝加哥期權交易所「在未來幾週內」批准 Monochrome 的申請仍持樂觀態度。

The imminent introduction of spot Bitcoin ETFs on the ASX is widely anticipated to revolutionize the accessibility and legitimacy of digital assets in Australia. These products provide investors with a regulated and convenient method to gain exposure to Bitcoin, fostering greater mainstream adoption and broadening the cryptocurrency's reach within the financial ecosystem.

人們普遍預期澳洲證券交易所即將推出貨比特幣 ETF，這將徹底改變澳洲數位資產的可及性和合法性。這些產品為投資者提供了一種受監管且便捷的方法來接觸比特幣，促進更廣泛的主流採用並擴大加密貨幣在金融生態系統中的影響力。
