The world of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology is constantly evolving, and the past two weeks have been no exception. From potential SEC denials to falling Bitcoin prices, there’s a lot happening in the world of Crypto NFTs.
First up, the SEC is expected to deny spot Ether ETFs in May. Recent discussions with the regulator suggest that the applications for spot Ether ETFs will likely be rejected, following a one-sided dialogue with SEC staff. This news comes after Grayscale Investments secured a court victory against the SEC in August 2023, changing the regulator’s stance on spot BTC ETFs.
In other news, Bitcoin prices have been falling, causing volatility in the market. With Bitcoin dipping below the $64,000 mark and a significant sell-off occurring, over $220 million in crypto has been liquidated in the past 24 hours. This downturn has raised concerns among investors and analysts, prompting a closer look at the factors contributing to Bitcoin’s price decline.
Indonesian President Joko Widodo has also issued a warning about money laundering involving cryptocurrencies and NFTs. During a speech at the 22nd Anniversary of the National Movement for Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing Prevention, Widodo urged the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre to monitor the use of crypto assets for illicit activities.
Lastly, Binance has integrated USD Coin on the CELO network, allowing for seamless deposit and withdrawal of USDC for Binance users. This move aims to provide users with more options and flexibility in managing their digital assets, as USDC is known for its stability and transparency.
Overall, the world of Crypto NFTs is constantly changing, and these recent events are shaping the future of blockchain technology and cryptocurrency. Stay tuned for more updates on Crypto NFT Today!
