The most valuable crypto stories for Thursday, June 30, 2022.
"The Hash" team discusses today's top stories including Grayscale's lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over its bitcoin spot ETF rejection and Genesis's ginormous loss, partly due to Three Arrows Capital exposure.
This episode was edited by Eleanor Pahl and our executive producer is Jared Schwartz. Our theme song is “Neon Beach.”
Late Wednesday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rejected Grayscale’s proposal to convert the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust to a spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF). Within minutes, Grayscale, a CoinDesk sister company, had filed suit against the SEC about that decision. In this episode, NLW explains why the crypto community is in broad agreement with Grayscale about the inconsistencies in how the SEC approves or rejects bitcoin-related products. (Disclosure: Grayscale is owned by CoinDesk parent Digital Currency Group.)
