US SEC To Prepone Actions On ARK Invest Bitcoin ETF?
According to Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart, the Ark Invest ETF decision could be out any time after August 11, 2023, two days in advance of the original deadline. This is because the scheduled deadline August 13 falls on Sunday. Hence, Seyffart believes that a decision could be out anytime after Friday post-market close.
“The next SEC deadline for Bitcoin ETFs is ARK Invest’s on 8/13. That’s a Sunday so we should see a decision by tomorrow. My bet is after market close tomorrow. We are fully expecting a DELAY.”
