Polkadot ETF faces market uncertainty, SEC filing notes

Polkadot ETF面臨市場不確定性，SEC提交註釋

Polkadot (DOT) is currently the 18th largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. However, its price has declined in recent months.

Polkadot（DOT）目前是市值的第18大加密貨幣。但是，最近幾個月的價格下降。

Over the last 12 months, DOT’s value dropped 5.16%, and in the past month, it has fallen 10.48%, according to CoinMarketCap.

根據CoinMarketCap的數據，在過去的12個月中，DOT的價值下降了5.16％，在過去的一個月中，它的價值下降了10.48％。

At the time of publication, Polkadot is trading at $6.42.

出版時，Polkadot的交易價格為6.42美元。

The SEC filing highlights the uncertainty in Polkadot’s price performance, stating:

SEC申請強調了Polkadot的價格績效的不確定性，並指出：

“There is no assurance that DOT will maintain its value in the long or intermediate term. In the event that the price of DOT declines, the Sponsor expects the value of the Shares to decline proportionately.”

“沒有保證DOT將在長期或中等任期內保持其價值。如果DOT的價格下跌，贊助商期望股票的價值按比例下降。”

Spot Polkadot ETF’s market demand is unclear

現貨Polkadot ETF的市場需求尚不清楚

Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart commented on the potential demand for a spot Polkadot ETF, noting that the market will ultimately determine its success.

彭博分析師詹姆斯·塞法特（James Seyffart）評論了對現場Polkadot ETF的潛在需求，並指出市場最終將決定其成功。

“The market will decide where value lies and if there’s value in launching such a product. If no one puts money into a Polkadot ETF — it will close. People are free to launch whatever ETFs are deemed to be allowed by the SEC,”

“市場將決定價值在哪裡，以及推出這種產品的價值是否有價值。如果沒有人將錢投入polkadot ETF，它將關閉。人們可以自由發射SEC允許的任何ETF，”

Seyffart said in a Jan. 31 post on X.

Seyffart在1月31日在X上發表的文章中說。

Polkadot security classification, regulatory risks noted in filing

Polkadot安全分類，備案中指出的監管風險

The filing also outlines potential risks related to Polkadot’s legal status. If the SEC classifies DOT as a security, the regulatory landscape could shift.

該文件還概述了與Polkadot的法律地位有關的潛在風險。如果SEC將DOT歸類為安全，則監管格局可能會發生變化。

Additionally, an increase in DOT’s circulating supply could impact the ETF’s performance.

此外，DOT循環供應的增加可能會影響ETF的性能。

The Web3 Foundation, which supports Polkadot, previously addressed this issue.

支持Polkadot的Web3基金會先前解決了此問題。

In February 2023, the foundation stated that DOT is not a security. It also emphasized that it had taken steps to distribute DOT fairly to prevent any single entity from holding too much control. The foundation further stated that it had declined investments from venture capital firms interested solely in financial returns.

2023年2月，基金會說，DOT不是安全性。它還強調，它已經採取了公平分發DOT的步驟，以防止任何單一實體持有過多的控制。該基金會進一步指出，它拒絕了僅對財務回報感興趣的風險投資公司的投資。
