Cboe Updates Spot Bitcoin ETF Applications
The latest statement of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) highlighted Coinbase as the Bitcoin ETF applications were deemed insufficient or comprehensive. Recently, the US options exchange CBOE submitted a new regulation by making changes for five Bitcoin ETF applications.
The new applications effectively demonstrated that it reached an agreement with Coinbase for sharing supervision. Meanwhile, despite the expectation of consumer price index (CPI) data, which generally leads to stagnation in the overall financial markets, Coinbase’s stock price rose significantly on Tuesday.
The new application shows that CBOE reached an agreement with Coinbase on June 21, 2023. According to this agreement, the parties will finalize and implement an agreement.
Previously, Blackrock, the world’s largest asset manager, had also made a supervision sharing agreement (SSA) with Coinbase. Other companies such as Valkyrie, Bitwise, Invesco, and WisdomTree have also applied for approval of Bitcoin ETFs.

The stock price of Coinbase Global Inc. (COIN) increased impressively by 10% on Tuesday due to Cboe’s news of the changes.
