The approval by the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) of a Bitcoin spot ETF (exchange-traded fund) means that the U.S. regulator has authorized the creation and trading of funds that directly replicate the price of bitcoin without investors having to buy or hold the cryptocurrency themselves.

This milestone, which occurred in January 2024, allows retail investors to access the bitcoin market more easily and in a regulated manner, through shares traded on traditional exchanges. However, the SEC maintains a cautious approach and does not endorse or recommend investment in cryptocurrencies, warning about the associated risks.
