Galaxy Digital CEO: It is expected that the Bitcoin ETF will be approved on January 10th
Galaxy Digital CEO Michael Novogratz recently discussed his expectations and focused on the cryptocurrency market and Bitcoin price in 2023 during an interview with CNBC. Additionally, Novogratz expressed confidence in the SEC's imminent approval of a physically-backed Bitcoin ETF. Novogratz stated, "We will launch this ETF before January 10, 2024. This is Gensler's final deadline before getting involved with Grayscale and litigation."
It is currently unclear whether Novogratz specifically referred to Grayscale's Bitcoin ETF or any other Bitcoin ETF applications submitted by financial institutions. Meanwhile, Grayscale CEO Michael Sonnenshein stated that the SEC needs to approve multiple Bitcoin ETF applications simultaneously to avoid giving any issuer an early advantage.

US Stock Movement | Snap (SNAP.US) rises over 6% as hedge funds urge the introduction of external capital for Specs, potentially unlocking shareholder value
According to news from Zhitong Finance APP, on Friday, Snap (SNAP.US) surged over 6% to $6.24. On the news front, the hedge fund Blue Duck Capital Partners hopes that Snap Inc. will sell part of its Specs business shares to raise funds. Alex Beinfield, Chief Investment Officer of Blue Duck, recently said in a letter to Snap’s board that Snap is "seriously" undervalued, and raising funds for Specs would unlock significant shareholder value. He stated that a financing centered on Specs would help support related expenditures without diluting Snap's share count, while also preserving its cash flow. Moreover, this move is expected to help the company reduce the Specs’ price of about $2,200. He believes that selling 20% of the Specs subsidiary at a valuation of $5 billion would raise $1 billion, enough to support that department's expenses for around two years.
