On Monday, Bitcoin’s price demonstrated a 13-percent growth, despite the reports of the SEC delaying its decision on the ETF offered by VanEck Associates Corp. and SolidX Partners Inc., and submitted by the CBOE exchange.

The SEC requires more data

On Monday, the SEC officially demanded more data from CBOE on how it intends to list the exchange-traded fund (ETF) made by VanEck Associates and SolidX Partners. Bloomberg has shared the details in its recent article.

Delaying the official status of the ETF from the SEC does not “indicate that the Commission has reached any conclusions with respect to any of the issues involved,” says the regulatory body.

The regulator has taken 35 days for more comments.

Last week, Bitcoin’s price showed momentum, adding more than $1,000 since the same time last Monday. Within a week, BTC soared almost 15 percent and seems ready to break higher up.


Crypto analyst ‘The Crypto Dog’ confirms that on Twitter.

The CEO of BitMEX, Arthur Hayes, has pointed out that since the market has managed to recover back to $8,000 so quickly, it is a clear sign that we are witnessing a bull run.
