BlackRock's Spot Bitcoin ETF Application: A Game Changer for Regulators?

The moment finance giant BlackRock filed to create a spot Bitcoin ETF in the U.S., market watchers wondered whether the world's biggest asset manager had a better chance of approval than the many rejected predecessors. They quickly fixated on a mechanism within the application that allows suspicious trades to be flagged to the authorities.

Influence of Surveillance-Sharing Agreement (SSA)

BlackRock's application sparked a flurry of follow-on filings with the now-ubiquitous Surveillance-Sharing Agreement (SSA) added. But what's more likely to influence the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)'s decision is an information-sharing deal that flips the position of power in the arrangement and gives regulators the right to demand extra background.

Information-Sharing Deal: The Power Shift

While the SEC's requirement for surveillance sharing to prevent market manipulation of crypto is not new – it first appeared in the Winklevoss Bitcoin ETF application in 2017 – details of a "Coinbase and NASDAQ Information Sharing Term Sheet" shared with CoinDesk point to something more.

Push vs. Pull: The Nuance

The nuance here can be characterized as the difference between push and pull. The SSA concerns data surveillance carried out by the spot exchange, Coinbase (COIN) in this case, which can be pushed to regulators, ETF providers, and listing exchanges if deemed suspicious. Information-sharing agreements, in contrast, allow regulators and ETF providers to pull data from the exchange.

The Scope of Information Sharing

The information in question could be about specific trades or traders, and the agreement also compels a crypto exchange to share data up to and including personally identifiable information (PII), such as the customer's name and address. Information-sharing agreements do not appear in any of the spot Bitcoin ETF filings, but the structure is found in other markets. An important caveat is that an information-sharing request has to be very specific, not dissimilar to a subpoena, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Ensuring Success of ETFs

"It can't just be a fishing expedition, where it's all of the information attached to any trade that was made between two given points in time," said the person, who asked to remain unidentified. "The obvious concern is that crypto traders, almost by definition, don't like having information shared about them. It's sort of anathema to the ethos of crypto in general. But for the ETF to be successful, have to do it."

Bitcoin ETF Application History

Going back to 2017, the SEC has highlighted the need for Bitcoin ETF applications to have a surveillance-sharing agreement with a regulated market of significant size, but firms have lacked clarity and an objective standard when it comes to interpreting this. The inclusion of an information-sharing agreement, as opposed to simply surveillance sharing, makes sense because it means an ETF is not reliant on an unregulated market, said Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise Asset Management. Bitwise has applied for an ETF numerous times.

Approval Ratings

The combination of surveillance sharing and information sharing is a structure known to brokers and exchanges in equities markets, where the regulator has the authority to request more information about the end client's trading history. Whenever a broker has a client that sends an order to Nasdaq, for example, and that order is flagged as suspicious by the exchange's SMARTS surveillance system, then the broker and the exchange are required to file a suspicious activity report (SAR). Regulators investigating a SAR can go on to this "second step," said Dave Weisberger, CEO of crypto trading platform CoinRoutes, which is requesting PII to identify whether the same beneficial owners are behind a given set of trades, creating a consolidated audit trail. "Coinbase, Nasdaq, and BlackRock are likely saying that if there is suspicious activity – and they are surveilling for it – then the regulator can request who's doing it, but they're not just going to give out PII willy-nilly. There is going to have to be suspicious activity. That is the equivalency here," Weisberger said in an interview, adding: "If that is true, I believe the SEC will not only approve this ETF but will approve it and take a victory lap. And considering how unpopular this SEC is, I suspect they need to do that now."

Conclusion

BlackRock's spot Bitcoin ETF application, coupled with innovative surveillance-sharing and information-sharing agreements, has the potential to reshape the regulatory landscape. By allowing regulators to pull data from exchanges and uncover suspicious activities, these mechanisms provide a more robust framework for overseeing the crypto market. As the SEC weighs the advantages and concerns associated with these agreements, the decision on approving the ETF will likely be a turning point for the future of cryptocurrency regulation.

How to Make a Million on Crypto: Insider Trading, Analysis or Luck?

According to a report of analyst company Solidus Labs “the insider trading in ERC-20 tokens ahead of their listing on centralized exchanges (CEX) is booming”. As a result of the analysis suspicious transactions have been detected before the main listings of ERC-20 tokens in 56% of cases. ERC-20 tokens, which are based on the Ethereum blockchain, are often available for trading on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) long before they appear on centralized exchanges.

According to the report more than 50 entities involved in suspicious transactions have been identified in connection with token listing announcements on the top three crypto exchanges. The report also reflects that much of the suspicious activity is related to repeated insider trading.

As soon as a listing on centralized exchanges is announced the insiders buy their tokens causing the usual price increase. Solidus Labs analysts have analyzed 234 listing announcements for ERC-20 tokens and found suspicious activity in 411 transactions involving more than 100 insiders.

Insider trading and market manipulation are major issues in cryptocurrencies. Small and centralized crypto projects are particularly vulnerable to these types of activities while larger and decentralized coins such as Bitcoin (BTC) are less exposed to these risks.

Market MANIPULATION or Market MYTH?

Market MANIPULATION or Market MYTH? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN-eH6y-aRY 🚨The Market ISN’T out to get YOU! I’ve spoken with handfuls of professional traders over the years and there’s been one resounding advice for all the traders who take losses personally… market manipulation is irrelevant. Trade the chart. Set a safe stop loss. Trade your plan. Even the giants among stocks aren’t mere play balls for the elite Hedge Funds. Just recently, had a chat with an acquaintance who manages a colossal Hedge Fund. Asked if they sway the market with their trades. His response? A clear “hardly.” With countless players, each with unique game plans, pinpointing a stock’s potential maneuver is near-impossible. So, if you ever feel cornered, sensing the market’s playing tricks on you, and draining energy decoding its whims (been there, done that), take a step back. Embrace the market’s whimsical nature. It’s the very reason we strategize and set those stop losses. 📚 I’ve also made some Free Trading Guides and a Trade Tracking Journal I think will really help 🙏 👇Full Video and Free Trading Guides👇 —————-👉LINK IN BIO👈—————— 💬Comment to start a chat with me! It’s my mission to help save as many struggling day traders as possible🙏 ============================== So I can help unlock your trading potential 🚀 FOLLOW @therealtradertrainer #tradingstories #marketmanipulation #MarketMysteries #StockMarketStories #SetStopLosses #tradingwisdom #tradingtips #therealtradertrainer #smartmoney #smartmoneytrading via TheRealTraderTrainer https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMZjkOXOmG7MuVVJUQWRh3w September 04, 2023 at 08:11AM

I am dearly anticipating the moment the bullshit over on twitter fucks over the marketmanipulationing strategies of Di$ney and such.

You know, the whole 'say something that will get people upset so they talk about it (negatively) and make the algorithm think they're talking about it -positively-? Yeah, that won't work anymore as of now.

Whoopsies.
