šŸ”„Bad news!!! DTCC cuts Bitcoin ETF collateral by 100%

šŸ“¢ Attention Crypto Investors: Changes are coming to collateral valuation starting April 30, 2024!

šŸ” DTCC will no longer allocate collateral for ETFs involving Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. This means a 100% reduction in collateral value for such funds. But don't panic!

šŸ’” According to analyst K.O. Kryptowaluty, this mainly affects inter-entity settlements within the Line of Credit system. Crypto ETFs for lending and collateral in brokerage activities remain largely unaffected, subject to individual brokers' risk tolerance.

šŸ’° Despite this news, institutions like Goldman Sachs and BNY Mellon continue to show interest in Bitcoin ETFs, showcasing the growing importance of cryptocurrencies in the traditional financial sector.

šŸ“‰ The market saw a slight negative impact with Bitcoin slipping 2.2% in the last 24 hours. However, stay informed and remember, fluctuations are part of the game!
