"It's a new day at the SEC, and a key priority of my chairmanship is developing a fit-for-purpose regulatory framework for crypto asset markets," said SEC Chairman Paul S. Atkins. "I am pleased the Commission approved these orders permitting in-kind creations and redemptions for a host of crypto asset ETPs.
