The US Securities and Exchange Commission said on Tuesday it had not decided on whether to allow the listing of a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund by Bitwise Asset Management, and asked for public comments on aspects of the fund’s application.

The price of Bitcoin has lost nearly half its value in recent months, having hit a six-month low of $32,950 on January 24, from a peak of $69,000 hit in November.

The delay comes after the SEC has denied spot Bitcoin ETFs by several issuers in recent months, including Fidelity, Sky Bridge, and Valkyrie, all of which sought to provide easy exposure to the digital currency.
