Monochrome 旗舰现货比特币 ETF 将在澳大利亚芝加哥期权交易所首次亮相

澳大利亚资产管理公司 Monochrome 打算在澳大利亚芝加哥期权交易所全球上市交易所推出其著名的现货比特币交易所交易基金 (ETF)。 Monochrome 已获得澳大利亚证券和投资委员会 (ASIC) 的批准，预计澳大利亚芝加哥期权交易所 (Cboe Australia) 将于 6 月获得批准。 Monochrome 比特币 ETF 如果获得批准，将成为澳大利亚首个直接持有比特币 (BTC) 的现货比特币 ETF，为投资者提供直接、透明的加密货币敞口。

Monochrome's Flagship Spot Bitcoin ETF Set to Launch on Cboe Australia

Monochrome 旗舰现货比特币 ETF 将于澳大利亚芝加哥期权交易所推出

Australian asset management firm Monochrome has announced plans to launch its flagship spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) on the international listing exchange Cboe Australia. The move comes after Monochrome filed for the spot Bitcoin ETF in July 2023.

澳大利亚资产管理公司 Monochrome 宣布计划在国际上市交易所 Cboe Australia 推出其旗舰现货比特币交易所交易基金 (ETF)。此举是在 Monochrome 于 2023 年 7 月申请现货比特币 ETF 之后做出的。

Upon approval, the Monochrome Bitcoin ETF will become Australia's first spot Bitcoin ETF to allow direct holding of Bitcoin (BTC). While Australian regulators have previously greenlit two exchange-traded products (ETPs) that provide exposure to spot crypto assets on Cboe Australia, these products do not directly hold Bitcoin. Instead, they invest in investment products that have exposure to spot Bitcoin ETF.

一旦获得批准，Monochrome 比特币 ETF 将成为澳大利亚首个允许直接持有比特币（BTC）的现货比特币 ETF。尽管澳大利亚监管机构此前批准了两种交易所交易产品（ETP），这些产品提供了澳大利亚芝加哥期权交易所现货加密资产的敞口，但这些产品并不直接持有比特币。相反，他们投资于有现货比特币 ETF 敞口的投资产品。

To list their spot Bitcoin ETF in Australia, asset managers must first obtain approval from the securities regulator and subsequently apply for an exchange listing. Monochrome has already secured approval from the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) and anticipates Cboe Australia to clear its application by June.

要在澳大利亚上市现货比特币 ETF，资产管理公司必须首先获得证券监管机构的批准，然后申请交易所上市。 Monochrome 已获得澳大利亚证券和投资委员会 (ASIC) 的批准，预计澳大利亚芝加哥期权交易所 (Cboe Australia) 将在 6 月之前批准其申请。

Initially, Monochrome intended to launch its spot Bitcoin ETF via Cboe rival ASX. However, Jeff Yew, CEO of Monochrome Asset Management, stated that the selection of Cboe Australia as the listing venue for the Monochrome Bitcoin ETF aligns more closely with the firm's strategic vision, market reach, and time frame. Yew elaborates:

最初，Monochrome 打算通过 Cboe 竞争对手 ASX 推出其现货比特币 ETF。不过，Monochrome Asset Management 首席执行官 Jeff Yew 表示，选择 Cboe Australia 作为 Monochrome 比特币 ETF 的上市地点更符合该公司的战略愿景、市场覆盖范围和时间框架。尤详细阐述：

"We expect a decision from Cboe Australia regarding the Monochrome Bitcoin ETF before mid-2024. The Monochrome Bitcoin ETF is poised to be Australia's first Bitcoin ETF authorized to hold Bitcoin directly."

“我们预计澳大利亚芝加哥期权交易所将在 2024 年中期之前就 Monochrome 比特币 ETF 做出决定。Monochrome 比特币 ETF 有望成为澳大利亚首个被授权直接持有比特币的比特币 ETF。”

Yew emphasizes that the primary distinction between existing ETPs and the Monochrome spot Bitcoin ETF is that it offers investors a direct and transparent avenue to exposure. This approach mirrors the structure of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States.

Yew 强调，现有 ETP 和 Monochrome 现货比特币 ETF 之间的主要区别在于，它为投资者提供了直接、透明的投资途径。这种方法反映了美国现货比特币 ETF 的结构。

The introduction of spot Bitcoin ETFs has attracted significant attention from governments globally since the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved 11 spot BTC ETFs on January 11th. The successful launch of spot BTC ETFs in the U.S. has spurred other countries to explore the possibility of introducing comparable products in their own markets.

自1月11日美国证券交易委员会批准11只现货比特币ETF以来，现货比特币ETF的推出引起了全球各国政府的高度关注。现货BTC ETF在美国的成功推出，促使其他国家探索在本国市场推出类似产品的可能性。
