Former United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) official John Reed Stark, also a vocal cryptocurrency critic, attributes his shift in stance on spot Bitcoin ETFs to rumors from SEC internal calls.

“Interesting. If these posts are true, some iteration of a Spot Bitcoin ETF seems likely,” he stated.

Spot Bitcoin ETF Critic Says it Could Create a ‘Legacy’

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), crypto critic John Reed Stark highlights that US SEC Chair Gary Gensler could establish a lasting legacy by approving the spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF).

“Precisely what the characteristics of an approved Bitcoin Spot ETF will entail remains to be seen but, under any circumstance, the legacy of SEC Chair Gary Gensler could be the approval of a Spot Bitcoin ETF. That is a mammoth victory for Big Crypto. Strange days indeed.”

The basis for his claims appear to be based on the rumour that the Bitcoin ETF would be cash redemptions as opposed to “in-kind,” as per posts by Fox Business journalists Eleanor Terrett and Charles Gasparino.
