SEC从灰度延迟了Solana和Litecoin ETF的决定

该决定增加了SEC针对各种加密ETF的延迟列表。这些延误引起了有关加密交易未来的重大问题

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed its decisions on two applications from Grayscale for an exchange-traded fund (ETF). The applications, submitted in June 2023, are for a Solana (SOL) ETF and a Litecoin (LTC) ETF, to be listed on the NYSE Arca exchange.

美国证券交易委员会（SEC）已将其决定推迟了灰度的两项申请，用于交易所交易基金（ETF）。该申请于2023年6月提交的申请是用于索拉纳（SOL）ETF和莱特币（LTC）ETF，该申请将在NYSE ARCA Exchange上列出。

The SEC’s review period for the two ETFs has now been extended to November 6. In its announcement, the SEC stated that it needs more time to decide whether the two ETFs will meet the investor protection and market transparency standards required by Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act.

SEC对两个ETF的审核期现已延长至11月6日。在公告中，SEC指出，它需要更多时间来决定这两个ETF是否将符合《证券交易法》第12（b）条要求的投资者保护和市场透明度标准。

This decision comes as no surprise, given the SEC’s history of delaying its rulings on various crypto ETFs. Earlier this year, the SEC pushed back the deadlines for its verdicts on several other Bitcoin ETFs, including those from BlackRock, WisdomTree, and State Street.

考虑到SEC延迟其对各种加密ETF的裁决的历史，这一决定就不足为奇了。今年早些时候，美国证券交易委员会（SEC）推迟了对其他几个比特币ETF的判决，包括贝莱德（Blackrock），韦斯特（Wisdomtree）和州街（State Street）的判决。

The SEC is also in the midst of a public comment period on a proposed rule change by BlackRock for its iShares Bitcoin Trust (ticker: BIT). The comment period began on August 24 and will continue for 21 days.

SEC还处于公开评论时期，该期限对贝莱德（Blackrock）的ishares比特币信托（Tricker：BIT）的拟议规则更改。评论期始于8月24日，将持续21天。

The proposed rule change would allow for in-kind exchange, where authorized participants could trade shares of the ETF for Bitcoin directly, in addition to the existing cash-out option. It would also enable the ETF to be included in the iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

拟议的规则更改将允许实现交易所，除了现有的现金淘汰选项外，授权参与者还可以直接将ETF的股份交易为比特币。这也将使ETF包含在iShares核心美国总键指数中。

This proposed change is a significant step, considering that the iShares Bitcoin Trust was the first Bitcoin futures ETF to be approved by the SEC back in 2021. At the time of its approval, the ETF was funded through a combination of cash and Bitcoin, with the majority of the investment being in bitcoin futures contracts.

考虑到iShares比特币信任是第一个由SEC批准的比特币期货ETF，这是一个重要的一步。在2021年，SEC批准了ETF。在批准之时，ETF是通过现金和比特币的结合来资助的，其中大多数投资是在比特币期货合同中。

Earlier this year, BlackRock made a surprise move by applying for the conversion of the iShares Bitcoin Trust into a spot bitcoin ETF, shortly after the SEC rejected an application from WisdomTree for a similar product.

今年早些时候，贝莱德（Blackrock）通过申请将iShares比特币信托（Ishares Bitcoin Trust）转换为比特币ETF的惊喜举动，在SEC拒绝WisdomTree申请类似产品后不久。

However, in a surprising turn of events, the SEC announced that it would not make a decision by the original November 15 deadline and instead extended the review period.

但是，在令人惊讶的事件转折中，SEC宣布将在原始的11月15日截止日期之前做出决定，而是延长了审核期。

This decision has implications for Grayscale’s efforts to list the Solana and Litecoin ETFs on the NYSE Arca exchange. It also impacts the SEC’s broader approach to crypto regulation under new chairman Paul Atkins.

这一决定对灰度列表在NYSE ARCA交易所列出Solana和Litecoin ETF的努力具有影响。这也影响了SEC在新主席保罗·阿特金斯（Paul Atkins）领导下对加密法规的更广泛的方法。

Since Atkins assumed his role in June, the SEC has become more engaged with the public and is keen on ensuring transparency in its dealings with financial products linked to digital assets. This signals a shift in regulatory strategy that could have wideranging consequences for the crypto industry.

自从阿特金斯（Atkins）在6月担任角色以来，美国证券交易委员会（SEC）变得更加与公众互动，并热衷于确保与与数字资产相关的金融产品打交道的透明度。这标志着监管策略的转变，可能会对加密货币行业产生广泛的后果。
