The SEC is widely expected to approve a Bitcoin ETF this October.

Cryptocurrency lender BlockFi has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to launch a futures-based Bitcoin exchange-traded fund in the U.S.

If approved, its shares will be trading on Cboe BZX Exchange.

The fund will not invest directly in Bitcoin:The fund seeks to invest in bitcoin futures so that the total value of the bitcoin to which the fund has economic exposure is equal to approximately 100% of the net assets of the fund.

A slew of analysts expects the SEC to finally approve a futures-based Bitcoin ETF this October.

As reported by U.Today, the agency might simultaneously greenlight four applications by the end of the month.
