The prospects of a Bitcoin ETF coming to market have not only crypto enthusiasts psyched, but Wall Street as well. Even though the term ETF — i.e., exchange-traded fund — is often talked about, we wanted to delve into the mechanics behind it in order to get a better understanding of the potential impact it might have. We interviewed an ETF consultant, an ETF applicant, a professor of finance and even a commissioner at the Securities and Exchange Commission to get the whole picture and to try to answer the question, could a Bitcoin ETF be a game changer?

There wouldn't be a BTC ETF, but maybe a multiple coin ETF. I doubt it though. Not until coins have real value attached to them rather than just perceived.
lol @ so called professionals that believe an april fools joke is the reason 38 billion got added to the market. you guys are smarter than this
9:30 prove that the reason they dont jsut approve bitcoin wtf many years ago has nothing to do with that they claim. Lying scambags.
8:00 dont eat all the lies raw…it is nohing about being afraid of being blamed lol. That is a lie. The world elite just dont want fiat to die, or at least they want to delay it so they got time to execute their plans. Dont think for one moment that the world elite have not accounted for crypto into their plans. They ofc have. And I would have done so too. They have had since 2008 to make up a genious plan for out phasing fiat and still win in the end.
Thanks for the video, it was a great recap!
when it comes to crypto mining Mr Patrick Brown is doing a good work , i keep making profits
The issues with a Bitcoin ETF is the price doesn’t set. It never has a market close. That scares traditional investors.
Great video but do we really need it as the market is already liquid and buyers can go elsewhere to purchase? BTC celebrated its 10th birthday this year and has already survived.

I had a blast hanging out with @justinsuntron. We talked about @Tronfoundation (#TRX), @BitTorrent (#BTT), #Bitcoin (#BTC), #ETFs and the future of #crypto. Justin is smart and hustles hard. I respect hustle. Keep pushing boundaries Justin and don’t settle! ??
I think it's great to introduce an ETF for Bitcoin but I'll be holding my own private keys

Replying to @Jaynewtocebu @justinsuntron and 2 others
1. I was impressed by Justin’s energy and overall hustle. 2. BitTorent acquisition is very interesting to me. (Torrent is a big network with significant history.) 3. Young Asian entrepreneurs are often underestimated and mocked in the west (US and Europe). It’s a mistake.
You guys are getting GOOD. Now, #Consistency. Do not let back. In fact, open the throttle and BiasedDesk (Coindesk, see DCG) will be left eating dust.
We don't need ETF , we need NO SECuritie
Very good video … good info but I'm sure the BTC Maxipads will freak out and say BTC doesn't need an ETF … yea oooooooook #XRP #NBKrypto
Send the videos to SEC for approval….
They are afraid of 1 Millionen Dollar Bitcoin ! So No etf and more CME Gold rigging…
Lol… Bitcoin doesn't need ETF and its vice versa.
Finally a good video about ETFs, good job, thank you very much!
so dumb how can you say that it was possibly a april fools joke that drove up the price didnt you do any research lol.
Bit late bringing that vid out guys?
Etf is important of bitcoin
Really good video!
Those ETFs will buy phantom Bitcoin…just like COMEX pretends to sell gold or silver but in reality it is mostly make-believe gold and silver…it does not exist. COMEX leveraged 100 to 1 in gold contracts for Pete's sake! Is that what you want for Bitcoin? Fuck those ETFs!
ETFs will be used to control Bitcoin….they will be able to short Bitcoin out the ying-yang. Look at gold and silver ETFs…used to manipulate gold and silver…the primary silver manipulator, JP Morgan, is the custodian of SLV's silver for God's sake! Talk about letting the fox guard the henhouse! No one even knows if there is any silver backing up SLV!
Bitcoin does not NEED a ETF. Please correct your video sir.
ETF= middle man, but much more safe and secure than those unregulated shit exchanges that keep getting hacked and going down, coinbase and gemini excluded.
When Molly ? : P
This guy's better than that other dude.

great vid –
Actually a great video. Nice to see crypto mum speak on it.
Why so complicated!
Bitcoin is "peer-to-peer" there is no need for these middle men.. Just buy the underlying asset, learn how it works, how to use it and distance yourself from rent seekers!
I still find it funny how BTC supporters call XRP a bankers coin, but they support BTC futures and ETFs which are run by banks. Makes sense right!?
