Bitcoin ETF Race Heats Up as Applicants Slash Fees, Approval Looms This Week

  • Bitcoin price surges past $47,000 on renewed optimism for spot ETF approval.
  • Applicants submit final S-1 amendments detailing competitive fees.
  • Bitwise offers the lowest fee at 0.20%, sparking a fee war among issuers.
  • Bloomberg analyst raises odds of ETF approval this month to 95%.
  • Market anticipates significant inflows into Bitcoin ETFs upon launch.

The Bitcoin market is buzzing with excitement as the long-awaited approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. appears imminent. With the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) expected to make a decision this week, applicants have rushed to submit their final S-1 amendments, highlighting fierce competition through cutthroat fees.

The race to attract investors has taken an interesting turn with issuers slashing their sponsor fees. Bitwise leads the pack with a fee as low as 0.20%, followed by Valkyrie at 0.49% and Invesco Galaxy at 0.39%. Ark Invest and VanEck continue to offer zero fees for an initial period, further intensifying the fee war.

Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas has significantly increased his estimate for ETF approval this month, now placing the odds at a staggering 95%. This surge in confidence reflects the intense activity surrounding the applications and the growing pressure on the SEC to act.

The potential launch of a spot Bitcoin ETF has sent ripples through the cryptocurrency community. With estimates of billions of dollars expected to flow into these funds, Bitcoin’s price has responded positively, climbing back above $47,000.

With the SEC decision looming, the coming days are likely to be filled with heightened anticipation and volatility in the Bitcoin market. Should the ETFs be approved, it could mark a watershed moment for Bitcoin adoption and mainstream exposure.
