SEC refuses to approve a Bitcoin ETF yet again

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed a decision on whether to approve the first Bitcoin exchange traded fund (ETF), the regulator said on Thursday.

The SEC has delayed a decision on VanEck's planned Bitcoin product for the second time since April, when it said it needed more time to study the proposal. On Wednesday, the regulator postponed its decision again, this time asking for more comments on whether the product should be allowed to trade on public markets.

The SEC needs to know whether the proposed ETF is vulnerable to manipulation and if any single market participant would be able to "buy or sell large amounts of bitcoin without significant market impact," according to the press release.

Why has the SEC refused to approve another ETF?

It was predicted that SEC Chair Gary Gensler, who had lectured on digital assets at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), would be more open-minded. However, since he took office in April, the agency has continued to express concern about the lack of oversight of cryptocurrency exchanges. It has also issued new warnings about the risks of investing in mutual funds that invest in Bitcoin futures.

The SEC has received a dozen bitcoin ETF proposals over the past eight years, but has not approved any of them due to investor protection concerns. In recent months, the regulator also delayed decisions on ETFs proposed by Kryptoin and WisdomTree.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the success guarantee work?

If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
