The post US Hits Fast-Forward on Crypto ETFs and Clarity appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
In the last 24 hours, there have been some important developments in the cryptocurrency domain. The SEC has approved multiple regulations, along with reviewing some proposals.
Additionally, the SEC made headlines for a shift in crypto ETF policy, which can encourage the approval of various altcoin ETFs.
What Happened in the US Crypto Space in the Last 24 Hours?
- SEC approved in-kind creation and redemption
SEC approved in-kind creation and redemption for all spot Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded funds (ETFs). This decision abolishes the previous restriction, released in January 2024, of a cash-only creation and redemption mechanism required for the initial wave of spot Bitcoin ETFs. Under the new rule, authorized participants will be able to exchange ETF shares directly for the underlying crypto assets, potentially reducing costs for investors.
This regulatory update has raised optimism around XRP ETF approval, as the analysts are predicting an 85% probability of approval in 2025.
- NYSE and Cboe propose a standardized framework for the listing of crypto ETFs
The NYSE and the Chicago Board Options Exchange (Cboe) submitted proposals to the SEC to establish a unified standardized framework for the listing of crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Currently, each new crypto ETF requires a separate 19b-4 filing and a months-long review. To remove this hectic procedure, the new proposal allows eligible crypto ETFs to list without separate SEC approvals.
- White House Working on the Golden Age of crypto
Under the President Trump administration, the White House is actively working to “usher in a golden age of crypto.” This includes an ambitious roadmap and enacting legislative regulatory reforms to position the US as the global leader in the digital assets space.
US Moving Towards Clarity in Crypto Regulatory Framework
These recent changes indicate that the US is finally moving towards providing the long-awaited clarity in the crypto regulations framework. It is actively working to reduce complexities by establishing easy procedures for crypto listings. In July 2025, only, the country made a historic shift as Congress passed three landmark bills — the GENIUS Act, the CLARITY Act, and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act.
