BlackRock, the global asset management leader, has made a strategic move by submitting an amended application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for its iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) and iShares Ethereum ETF (ETHA). This application, dated September 29, aims to align these ETFs with new general listing standards, following BlackRock’s success in surpassing Deribit as the leading platform for Bitcoin options.
