Hacker hacks SEC X account to post fake news about launch of spot BTC-ETF
Unknown people hacked the X account of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and posted a statement about approval of spot exchange-traded funds (ETF) based on bitcoin. Later, the head of the regulator Gary Gensler clarified that the news was fake, and such products are still not allowed to be listed and traded on stock exchanges. At the same time, earlier, the media, citing sources, repeatedly reported that the SEC could approve spot BTC-ETFs as early as January 10.
