Popular Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas has lowered the possibility of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) denying the launch of the Bitcoin spot ETF to 5%. This latest forecast comes as crypto enthusiasts worldwide anticipate a wide-scale approval of various Bitcoin spot ETF proposals by the SEC on Wednesday, January 10.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why The Bitcoin Spot ETF Approval Appears Nearly Certain: Bloomberg Analysts Weigh In<\/span><\/h2>\n

In October, Eric Balchunas and fellow Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart predicted<\/a> that there is a 90% chance that ARK Invest and 21 shares would receive approval for their joint Bitcoin spot ETF bid on January 10, which marked the final deadline date for the SEC\u2019s response on their application.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, in a recent X post<\/a> on January 6, Balchunas raised the probability of this greenlight to an astounding 95% after declaring that there was only a 5% probability the SEC would reject the ARK\/21 ETF bid in the coming days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Well said although I probably go with 5% at this point. But you gotta leave a little window open for these things.<\/p>\n
