SEC to Review ETF Rejection Decisions and Singapore’s Central Bank
Partners with SGX and Others for Blockchain Asset Settlement
Partners with SGX and Others for Blockchain Asset Settlement
Going into the weekend the crypto market’s total
market capitalization is sitting at $210 billion USD at press time according to
data from CoinMarketCap, so not much change from yesterday. Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $6533
USD and holds some 53 percent market dominance. Most of the major altcoins
listed have shown very little movement in the past 24 hours.

Reuters reports that the decision to block nine
exchange-traded funds by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will
be reviewed. The decision to reject nine applications from three companies–two
from ProShares and five from Direxion for listing on the NYSE Arca, and two
from GraniteShares on the CBOE–was made by staff delegated by SEC
commissioners. However, SEC commissioner Hester Peirce said in a tweet that she and her colleagues reserve the right to
review decisions made by staff, as in this case.

In a much longer statement published on the SEC’s official website from July
26, Peirce articulated her own position on Bitcoin exchange-traded products
(ETPs) following the rejection of the Winklevoss brothers’.

“By precluding
approval of cryptocurrency-based ETPs for the foreseeable future, the
Commission is engaging in merit regulation. Bitcoin is a new phenomenon, and
its long-term viability is uncertain. It may succeed; it may fail. The
Commission, however, is not well positioned to assess the likelihood of either
outcome, for bitcoin or any other asset. Many investors have expressed an
interest in gaining exposure to bitcoin, and a subset of these investors would
prefer to gain exposure without owning bitcoin directly. An ETP based on
bitcoin would offer investors indirect exposure to bitcoin through a product
that trades on a regulated securities market and in a manner that eliminates
some of the frictions and worries of buying and holding bitcoin directly. If we
were to approve the ETP at issue here, investors could choose whether to buy it
or avoid it. The Commission’s action today deprives investors of this choice. I
reject the role of gatekeeper of innovation—a role very different from (and,
indeed, inconsistent with) our mission of protecting investors, fostering
capital formation, and facilitating fair, orderly, and efficient markets.
Accordingly, I dissent.”

A press release today announced the collaboration of the Monetary
Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Singapore Exchange (SGX), along with Deloitte,
Anquan and Nasdaq, to deliver enhancements to ease digital asset settlements.
The entities have convened specifically to develop Delivery versus Payment
(DvP) capabilities for settlement of tokenized assets across different
blockchain platforms, in which Deloitte, Anquan and Nasdaq will act as
technology partners. The move enables financial institutions and investors to
“carry out simultaneous exchange and final settlement of tokenized digital currencies and securities assets”. Tinku
Gupta, Head of Technology at SGX, and Project Chair, said:
