Btc crashing because this will probably lower the odds of approval. this is why tech stocks are so much better . no need to have to worry about these shenanigans. The SEC cannot approve when there is so much fraud. The fake news problem has gotten so bad on twitter. total shitshow. sub 30k soon on delay, imho

You could absolutely manipulate tech stocks by hacking Twitter accounts. For example, you could hypothetically pump JNPR by 25% by leaking an upcoming acquisition.

I don't think so. To Downvoters: The Twitter / X account of the SEC was compromised: [0] > The @SECGov twitter account was compromised, and an unauthorized tweet was posted. The SEC has not approved the listing and trading of spot bitcoin exchange-traded products. You all got manipulated very easily. [0] https://twitter.com/GaryGensler/status/1744833049064288387

And the @SECGov Tweet is gone now too, so looks like it was a hack... crazy.

Maybe @SECGov wasn't compromised, but instead @GaryGensler was?

Not probable considering the tweets the hacker liked immediately after posting

Widely believed Ethereum ETF coming in Q2. Will make it much easier to put 401k / IRA money in, and capitulation by SEC makes a Bitcoin and Ethereum ban in the US basically impossible.

You think they're going to approve an ETF for a premined unregistered security scam? Ethereum is to Bitcoin as dogshit is to gold.

Yeah this is really bad for BTC longs. now it will probably be delayed. it's obvious that there is too much fraud and manipulation.. The SEC cannot in good conscious allow an ETF to protect investors (yes, ETFs which have lost all value like UVXY have been approved). Whoever did this furcked over wall street and these funds. Wow. never a dull moment.

I mean a diversified etf like QQQ, which was up 50% or TQQQ, up 150%. Why deal with individual stocks at all when the leveraged tech etfs have less risk and more upside.
