NYSE Arca submits filing for listing of Truth Social Bitcoin ETF
NYSE Arca on Tuesday submitted a filing to the U.S. markets regulator seeking regulatory approval to list the Truth Social Bitcoin ETF. Spot bitcoin ETFs have gained popularity since their January 2024 debut, drawing billions in inflows as investors seek regulated, liquid exposure to the cryptocurrency. In February, the Trump Media and Technology Group applied to trademark six investment products that track bitcoin and the U.S. manufacturing and energy sectors. U.S. President Donald Trump is the majority owner of TMTG, which runs the social media platform Truth Social. The filing, known as a Form 19b-4, is a requirement that organizations such as stock exchanges submit to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to propose a rule change or to list a new product. It's a key procedural step before an exchange can begin listing and trading a new fund or instrument. The fund will seek to reflect the performance of bitcoin and has been "designed to remove the obstacles represented by the complexities and operational burdens involved in a direct investment in bitcoin." Bitcoin has gained 12.7% so far this year and is trading above $105,000.

ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF to undergo 3-for-1 share split on June 16
21Shares US said on Monday it will carry out a 3-for-1 share split of its ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF to make the fund more accessible to investors, with the move set to take effect at market open on June 16. The approval of such spot bitcoin ETFs in January 2024 by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, marked a watershed moment for the digital assets industry, ending a decade-long wait and signaling growing regulatory acceptance. The funds, which have rapidly grown in popularity, offer direct exposure to bitcoin through traditional markets, allowing institutions and other investors to participate without holding the token, bolstering credibility and inflows into the sector. ARKB has gained almost 12% so far this year and nearly 27% quarter-to-date. It closed trading at $104.25 on Monday. Meanwhile, bitcoin, the world's largest and most widely recognized cryptocurrency, has also climbed above the $100,000 mark, a level seen as key by many market participants. Companies typically split shares to lower the trading price per unit, aiming to attract a broader base of retail investors and improve liquidity. The share split will not affect ARKB's net asset value, ticker symbol, or investment strategy, and its shares will continue trading under the same CUSIP, the company said.
