Former SEC Chair Jay Clayton Expresses Confidence in Impending Bitcoin ETF Approval

In a recent interview with CNBC's "Last Call," former SEC Chair Jay Clayton expressed unwavering confidence in the forthcoming approval of a Bitcoin ETF.
One of the primary issues that Clayton addressed in the interview was the prevalence of questionable trading practices in the Bitcoin market.
Clayton's comments echo the sentiment that a mature, well-regulated market is essential for the successful introduction of a Bitcoin ETF.
High-quality and reliable market data had also been a substantial obstacle to the approval of a Bitcoin ETF.
However, in recent times, Jay Clayton believes that the landscape of the Bitcoin market has undergone significant transformation.
