Coinbase Backs NYSE Arca’s Push for Grayscale Bitcoin Trust Conversion to ETF
$Bitcoin (BTC.CC)$ $Coinbase (COIN.US)$ In a letter to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Tuesday, Coinbase urged the agency to approve NYSE Arca’s application to convert the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust into an exchange-traded fund (ETF).
“We believe investors should have access to GBTC in an ETP [exchange-traded product] format because it offers a tried and tested way for retail investors to gain exposure to bitcoin at prices that closely reflect spot bitcoin trading prices without holding it themselves,” the letter said. Grayscale Investments is a digital asset management firm owned by Digital Currency Group, which also owns CoinDesk.
”ETPs reduce discrepancies between trading market prices and underlying asset values through continuous share redemptions and creations. What could do more to advance both the public interest and the Commission’s mission to protect investors?” Grewal added in a tweet.
