Sorry for the late upload! Life comes at me fast sometimes.

Today we have a part 2 look at this current Bitcoin ETF situation - that's what I'm calling it. The SEC has many applications submitted, and today made 3 decisions that effectively shut down 9 current applications. They are making broad statements that future applicants can consider and thus be in adherence to SEC guidelines. The CBOE VanEck / SolidX Bitcoin ETF is by far the one to watch out for, and it's expected to be delayed into February of 2019, only to be denied (likely). The Bitcoin ETF saga will resume halfway through 2019 with a new round of applications that have factored in all previous denials. It's through this process that we will get an ETF that is appropriate and well thought out. The cryptocurrency markets deserve nothing less. What will that do to Bitcoin dominance I wonder?

Last week on Crypto Blessing:
Has altcoin season begun? The slight pumps we saw yesterday have bled into other assets, with Icon ICX calming down and Nano, Vechain, Ontology, Zilliqa and more taking off! Tron TRX, Ripple XRP, and even Bitcoin BTC are all up and going strong. We have a look at all the trending news in the cryptocurrency markets, including Ethereum Classic (ETC) being added to coinbase, Tron TRX's expansion into Japan, while Ripple (XRP) also eyes the Asian-Pacific and UAE cryptocurrency markets.

Today we look at all this Bitcoin (BTC) ETF hype and what exactly a Bitcoin (BTC) ETF would do to the markets. It's largely compared to Gold, because whether it's entirely because of an ETF or just a contributing factor the price of Gold has done very well over time since introducing an ETF. Obviously cryptocurrency is slightly different, and I do feel that without an ETF the space will continue to evolve and develop into real use cases that deliver positive social impact. I think an ETF is inevitable, however its not realistic to think in early 2019 or even late 2019 we will see one. We show an article saying this current CBOE Bitcoin ETF will be rejected and further applications will need to be considered, taking us well into 2019 and early 2020.

So much has gone on in the markets lately. The SEC delayed the CBOE VanEck/SolidX Bitcoin ETF application until September 30th. Prior to that, the SEC denied the Winklevoss' BAT Exchange's application for a bitcoin ETF, citing instability and unregulated aspects as well as price manipulation. A SEC Comissioner Hester Pierce publicly disapproved of the rejection citing stalling of innovation and reddit was quick to show their support, announcing her as Crypto Mom. Her twitter has blown up, and it's largely known now that the media publications took the rejection and ran with it, spinning a possible bitcoin price of 5k once again; the fud was spread and damage was done, causing some weak hands to sell at 8k+ causing bitcoin to drop to 7,900 - then quickly was brought up past 8k solidifying the passing of this rejection and a hopeful resume of bullish activity.

The Takeaway from this is: Winklevoss' ETF was expected to be denied, CBOE is quite different (retail vs institutional investors) and that no one is certain even the CBOE will get it. Presumably it doesn't happen this year and we look towards more retail driven rallies.

Could Cryptocurrency be bearish for another 6months? It could. Is that likely? No, but no one knows the future in this emerging space.
