The US Securities and Exchange Commission has reportedly issued a warning that the recent Bitcoin Spot ETF filings by financial giants, such as Fidelity and BlackRock, could lack comprehensive details.

The agency has a long history of rejecting such products in the States, and its current war on crypto is likely not helping.

• BlackRock made the headlines a few weeks ago when it filed to launch a Bitcoin Spot ETF in the States, which, if approved, would be the first such product in the country.
• The company’s record is quite spectacular, with only one proposed ETF rejected by the SEC almost a decade ago.
• The move was regarded as a hugely positive development for the industry that could open the doors for others as well, and Fidelity reapplied shortly after.
• However, a new report by the Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter, claims that the US securities regulator is not keen on approving either of these applications.
• According to the WSJ, the SEC has informed Nasdaq and CBOE that the applications filed on behalf of BlackRock and Fidelity are not “sufficiently clear and comprehensive.”
• Given that the agency has used that justification in the past to reject multiple Bitcoin Spot ETF applications, the news was followed by a sharp price drop from BTC.
• The cryptocurrency flirted with the $31,000 level today, but it plummeted by over a grand within an hour after the report came out to a 10-day low of under $30,000.
