The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is dealing with numerous Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) applications at the moment. The agency has begun reviewing the proposal by WisdomTree, starting the countdown clock to a final decision.

WisdomTree application now under review

The US SEC has started reviewing the Bitcoin ETF application submitted by WisdomTree. According to the public notice published yesterday, the regulatory agency said it has begun looking at the Bitcoin ETF proposal.

WisdomTree filed its Bitcoin ETF with Cboe BZX Exchange last month. However, the firm had previously attempted to launch a regulated financial product with exposure to cryptocurrencies.

The cryptocurrency market had been clamoring for the US SEC to approve a Bitcoin ETF in the country. Canada had already approved three Bitcoin ETFs, while another one is live in Brazil. A Bitcoin exchange-traded fund would provide retail and institutional investors a chance to invest in a regulated financial product that tracks the leading cryptocurrency's performance. Investors can gain exposure to Bitcoin without investing directly in the cryptocurrency.

The WisdomTree Bitcoin Trust is the second active Bitcoin ETF application the federal regulator is evaluating in the United States. The regulatory agency is already reviewing the Bitcoin ETF application submitted by VanEck, and its initial comment period is set to end in less than a week. However, it has only gotten five comments so far.

The SEC is expected to make a final decision on the VanEck proposal next month. Meanwhile, the countdown for the final decision on the WisdomTree proposal has begun, and SEC has 45 days to make its decision known. It can also extend the review period to give it more time to analyze the proposal.

SEC deals with numerous ETF applications

The US SEC is currently dealing with numerous Bitcoin ETF applications. Yesterday, Kryptoin Investment Advisors, an asset manager launched by Jason Toussaint of SPDR Gold Shares fame, submitted its Bitcoin ETF application to the regulatory agency.

Following Kryptoin's application, the SEC now has to deal with a total of eight active Bitcoin ETF proposals. The other applications include Anthony Scaramucci's SkyBridge Capital, Fidelity-linked Wise Origin Bitcoin Trust, Valkyrie, NYDIG, and Simplify.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
