Members of public can submit comments through the SEC website, via email, or snail mail.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Related: SEC pushes decision on VanEck Bitcoin ETF until June<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>VanEck submitted the paperwork to apply for a Bitcoin ETF with the SEC in March following the asset manager withdrawing a similar application it had filed in January in partnership with blockchain startup SolidX. The commission has already extended the deliberation window once, from May 3 to June 17.<\/p>\n<p>The SEC has the ability to extend the deadline in 45-, 45-, 90- and 60-day increments \u2014 up to 240 days \u2014 before delivering a final decision. However, under Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the commission also has the right \u201cto determine whether the proposed rule change should be disapproved\u201d prior to any deadline, as is the case in the request for public comment.<\/p>\n<p>No Bitcoin ETF has been approved by regulators in the United States. Given the SEC\u2019s continued delays in the case of VanEck\u2019s, Valkyrie Digital Assets\u2019 and Fidelity Investments\u2019 proposed BTC exchange-traded funds, many do not expect an approval soon. However, Canadian officials have given the green light for many crypto ETFs this year, including offerings from investment fund manager 3iQ, Purpose Investments, Evolve Funds Group and CI Global Asset Management.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
