The SEC has rejected several applications for spot bitcoin ETFs in recent years, citing concerns about the underlying market's lack of regulation and susceptibility to manipulation. In its latest rejection, the SEC said that the spot bitcoin market is "not sufficiently developed" to support a spot bitcoin ETF.
Berenberg believes that the SEC is likely to continue to reject spot bitcoin ETF applications, but that it will need to come up with new arguments to justify its decision. The report noted that the SEC could argue that Coinbase's potential participation in spot bitcoin ETFs could increase the risk of manipulation.
Coinbase is the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the United States. If it were to participate in a spot bitcoin ETF, it would be a major market participant. This could give Coinbase the ability to manipulate the price of bitcoin, either intentionally or unintentionally.
The SEC could also argue that spot bitcoin ETFs are not necessary because there are already futures-based bitcoin ETFs available. Futures-based ETFs track the price of bitcoin futures contracts, which are traded on regulated exchanges. This means that futures-based ETFs are less susceptible to manipulation than spot bitcoin ETFs.
Ultimately, the SEC's decision on whether or not to approve spot bitcoin ETFs will be based on a number of factors, including the level of regulation and surveillance in the spot bitcoin market, the potential for manipulation, and the availability of alternative products.
Here are some other arguments that the SEC could use to justify rejecting spot bitcoin ETF applications:

- The spot bitcoin market is too volatile.
- The spot bitcoin market is not liquid enough.
- The spot bitcoin market is not transparent enough.
- There is not enough information available about the spot bitcoin market.
- The spot bitcoin market is not subject to the same level of regulation as other financial markets.
