灰度对 SEC 通过杠杆型的比特币期货 ETF 表达不满,认为 SEC 在现货产品与期货产品存在差别待遇。

继上个月华尔街巨头接连申请比特币现货 ETF 后,比特币在月底也迎来美国首次杠杆型的比特币期货 ETF,由 Volatility Shares 所提出,Volatility Shares 表示,此次杠杆型比特币 ETF – BITX 的申请并未受到美国证券交易委员会(SEC)的否决,所以在 6 月 27 日正式上线。

灰度不满差别待遇
多次向 SEC 申请将旗下比特币信托基金(GBTC)转为现货 ETF,但屡次遭到无视、拒绝的资产管理公司灰度(Grayscale Investments),对 SEC 通过杠杆型比特币 ETF 感到相当不满。
灰度律师 Donald Verrilli 在周一递交给哥伦比亚特区上诉法院的一封信中表示,杠杆比特币交易所交易基金明明就是一种「风险更高的投资产品」,痛批 SEC 此举根本就是说不通的。
SEC 允许开放交易杠杆比特币期货交易所交易产品表明,SEC 在处理现货比特币交易所交易产品时仍然是有所偏颇的,与比特币期货交易产品采取差别待遇。
而 SEC 与灰度就「GBTC 转比特币现货 ETF」的诉讼从去年开始至今仍在持续激战中,而 Donald Verrilli 此前就已在法院上提出核心论点,认为灰度已签署了期货 ETF 监督协议,SEC 可以很好地监管 ETF 产品;同时灰度推出比特币现货 ETF 是「更好地保护投资者」。
灰度在推特澄清自己的立场,表示他们并不是说这样的产品不应该存在。相反的是想告诉市场 SEC 的矛盾,SEC 不可能在没有充分的理由下,拒绝现货产品的批准,但同时允许杠杆期货产品进行交易。
如今背靠众多机构
如今随着巨头贝莱德(BlackRock)、富达(Fidelity)在 6 月中开始向 SEC 提交推出比特币现货 ETF,GBTC 日交易量在贝莱德提出申请后仅 5 天,就飙升至近 8000 万美元,增幅高达约 400%。
据 Coinglass 数据显示,当前灰度基金的总持仓量达 190 亿美元,而 GBTC 负溢价已收窄至 27.49%,较 2022 年 12 月时的最高负溢价率(当时负溢价达 48.62%)收回约 21.13%。
据了解,Grayscale 发行的 GBTC 在 2021 年 2 月底就开始出现负溢价,并随着 2022 年进入熊市后比率持续扩大,至到今年(2023)负溢价才逐渐平稳。市场不少知名投资人看好 GBTC 后续发展,并且认为灰度有望赢下与 SEC 的诉讼。包括「女股神」Cathie Wood 就多次称赞 GBTC 的涨幅未来,并期待翻回正溢价,她旗下管理的方舟投资(ARK investment)同时是 GBTC 最大持有人。

Preview of Warsh's Friday Speech: What Is the Market Focusing On?

Fed Chair Kevin Warsh is set to deliver his first Jackson Hole speech this Friday, a key event for markets to gauge his policy framework. The focus is on whether he will continue reducing forward guidance, thereby allowing markets to form their own rate expectations. Analyst Michael J. Kramer suggests a controversial interpretation: Warsh may tolerate a steeper yield curve, where rising long-term yields and bond volatility could tighten financial conditions without an immediate policy rate hike. This could occur through higher mortgage and corporate funding costs and lower equity valuations. Kramer points to the rising term premium on 10-year Treasuries, which, if reverting to pre-QE averages, could push yields above 5% alongside a higher assumed neutral rate. Concurrently, reduced forward guidance could structurally increase bond market volatility (as measured by the MOVE index), further tightening conditions. In this framework, long-end tightening could precede potential short-end rate cuts if it successfully cools demand and inflation. Risks include loss of Fed credibility and uncontrollable financial stress from excessive rate rises. Additionally, Japan's monetary policy normalization, with rising inflation expectations and short-term rate projections, may add upward pressure on global long-term yields. Friday's speech will be crucial for discerning whether Warsh views higher long-end yields as a usable policy tool or an uncontrolled market risk, and whether the "let the long-end do the tightening" narrative holds.

Darknet Leader Indicates Readiness to Cooperate as $44 Million Bitcoin Kidnapping Case Develops

Tomas Jiríkovský, the main suspect in a major Czech Republic cryptocurrency money laundering case, has indicated a potential willingness to cooperate with authorities. This follows a custody hearing at the Brno City Court where judge Ivana Otrubová ruled to keep him detained. Jiríkovský, a programmer linked to darknet activities and money laundering, had previously refused to speak with investigators. Prosecutors now state he has changed his position regarding darknet marketplace operations and criminal proceeds laundering. The court ordered his continued detention citing a flight risk and the likelihood he still controls some illicit crypto funds. Prosecutors are seeking a sentence of up to 20 years and asset confiscation. Central to the scandal is Jiríkovský's controversial $44 million Bitcoin donation to the Czech Ministry of Justice, which he made in exchange for state assistance in unlocking a confiscated crypto wallet. Former Justice Minister Pavel Blažek accepted the donation, but investigators allege it was a scheme to legitimize illegal darknet proceeds. The fallout led to Blažek's resignation and criminal charges against several high-ranking officials for aiding money laundering and breach of duty. With tens of thousands of pages of evidence, the trial is expected to be lengthy as authorities work to uncover the full scale of the operation.
