Bitcoin ETF Approval Dates Predicted
Analyst James Seyffart estimated that the SEC could potentially approve all twelve spot Bitcoin ETF filings between January 5 and 10, 2024. This aligns with a prediction from Seyffart and colleague Eric Balchunas who have targeted January 10 as a potential approval date, ruling out any possibility of approval in December.
Lawyer Scott Johnsson also expressed agreement that the SEC filings indicate a likelihood of the regulator approving the funds by around January 10. In a tweet, he stated, “Really the only way it makes sense. Pretty sure we can lock this one up.”
