The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is delaying a decision on Hashdex’s application to convert its existing Bitcoin futures exchange-traded fund (ETF) into a spot vehicle, according to an SEC filing. The agency is also delaying action on Grayscale’s bid to launch a new futures-based ether ETF. 

Hashdex submitted an application to convert its bitcoin futures ETF into a spot bitcoin ETF in September. Grayscale filed for its ether futures ETF that same month. The original deadline for both filings was set for November 17, but the SEC said it was postponing that date, according to the filing.
