Is it Possible That Bitcoin ETFs Could Pose a Threat to Crypto?

The buzz in the crypto world revolves around the potential approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF in the US. However, Arthur Hayes, BitMEX’s founder, is sounding a cautionary note, suggesting that this move could be a double-edged sword for Bitcoin’s future.

Hayes raised concerns that traditional finance managing these ETFs might unintentionally overshadow Bitcoin itself if they gain too much traction. His worry is that people could favor ETFs over directly owning Bitcoin, potentially allowing a few financial giants to dominate the Bitcoin market without actively using it.

Painting a hypothetical scenario, Hayes outlined a future where major asset managers hold most of the circulating Bitcoins without utilizing the actual technology behind it. This imbalance might lead to miners shutting down operations due to high energy costs, ultimately causing Bitcoin’s downfall.

Beyond the threat to Bitcoin’s existence, Hayes highlighted a risk concerning the crypto industry’s pursuit of financial independence from governmental influence, should these ETFs see immense success.

Despite these warnings, firms like BlackRock, Hashdex, and Pando are pushing for a spot Bitcoin ETF approval. BlackRock, for instance, proposed a hefty $10 million seed funding, hinting at preparedness for a potential launch upon approval.

Industry analysts observe that BlackRock’s moves align with earlier predictions, suggesting a probable January launch if regulatory hurdles are cleared. This progression follows adjustments made by BlackRock to adhere to SEC recommendations within its Bitcoin ETF application.

Crypto trader Marco Johanning shared insights, noting Bitcoin’s position below the critical resistance level of $44,400. However, Johanning remained optimistic, outlining potential scenarios: a breakthrough above resistance, retesting a significant trendline, or a period of consolidation leading into the year’s end.
