 <p class="is-style-lead">Traders taking bets on the platform predict a 90% chance the SEC will approve spot Bitcoin ETFs by mid-January, while the minority is hedging against the converse outcome.</p>
 <p>Shares of a “Bitcoin ETF approved by Jan 15” contract on Poly<a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="market" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/market.html">market</a>, a decentralized prediction venue, traded for 90 cents as speculation for a forthcoming decision from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) dominated <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="market" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/market.html">market</a> sentiment.&nbsp;</p>
 <p>At press time, the contract had attracted $441,315 worth of “YES” bets, with just 10% of traders choosing “NO”. These <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="invest" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/invest.html">invest</a>ors also admitted their opposing choice was a means to hedge their bets and turn a profit should the SEC delay beyond Jan. 15.</p>

 <p>Reuters reported that the SEC could announce approvals as early as Jan. 3 for the 14 issuers to list their products in the coming weeks. However, Fox journalist Eleanor Terrett said this is highly unlikely due to ongoing reviews of updated S-1 filings from firms like Hashdex and VanEck.</p>
 <p>Although no one knows when the SEC will decide on spot Bitcoin ETFs, experts and crypto proponents fancy the chances of a Jan. 10 outcome. This date coincides with the deadline for a joint submitted by ARK 21Shares.</p>
 <p>Cathie Wood, Ark Invest CEO, also foresees a decision by this date. Wood believes an approval would endorse Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrencies through Wall Street, a sentiment shared by MicroStrategy founder and BTC maxi Michael Saylor.</p>
