    A finance professor from Georgetown University has asked the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) not to restrict the creation/redemption of spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

    The professor suggested the SEC should allow firms to use the in-kind creation method instead of the cash creation method proposed by the SEC.

    Several applicants, including Blackrock and Fidelity, have also proposed the in-kind creation method.
