Why I am bullish on DOT?
Several companies have applied for a Polkadot (DOT) ETF with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The most notable applicants include:
Valkyrie Investments
21Shares
Bitwise Asset Management
However, as of now, the SEC has not approved any cryptocurrency ETFs for Polkadot. The ETF approval process for cryptocurrencies remains challenging, with the SEC typically being cautious about approving such financial products.
The landscape for crypto ETFs has been evolving, with recent approvals for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in early 2024 potentially paving the way for other cryptocurrency ETF applications. But each application is scrutinized individually, and approval is not guaranteed.
