Evolve’s ETF shares, meanwhile, are trading at CAD 24.03, $ 18.98 at the time of writing, which implies a NAV of 0.00037309 BTC.

The success of the first two ETFs in North America, a fact reported in this media, has raised expectations about the last request made to the SEC for a similar investment instrument in the United States, made at the beginning of January of this year. More recently, CriptoNoticias reviewed the introduction of a request from CBOE to that same commission to list the shares of that ETF, whose approval is still pending.
