Not even close for the title of "Biggest news for BITCOIN in 2021". In the first place, it's only a filing. They very well could decline this one, just like the past VanEck Bitcoin ETF filings. And even if it does get approved, it's not like we don't have things like GrayScale's Bitcoin Trust(GBTC) yet. It's a good sort of success for Bitcoin don't get me wrong, but probably not as major of an event as most people think.

I wouldn't take it as a biggest news around crypto in 2021. It's a generally positive news! I know VanEck is trying to get their ETF approved since 2017 but their requests have been declined by SEC every single time. This time it is a little different because now an exchange has filed an intent to list an ETF from a preferred service provider. So this time things may become a little more positive for VanEck.

Now SEC will have 45 days to either approve or decline the ETF request. This time it is a little different because in last few months Canadian government has approved multiple bitcoin ETFs. So as a strong ally of Canada, US regulators may think the matter in a different way this time. The best part is that VanEck's ETF will be a physical bitcoin ETF. So they will have a custodian who will hold the bitcoins for VanEck's trading. More institutional money means more liquidity.

It would have been biggest news if this was the first one a company files a request for a bitcoin ETF, or even if there weren't already multiple ETFs in different countries approved and already over a year old. This is more of a clickbait with a pointless article basically repeating what has been happening over the past 6 years in US, companies file a new ETF, SEC rejects them.

Are we back in 2017?News about Bitcoin ETFs don't make me excited anymore.This ETF isn't even approved yet.
If it gets approved,then great,if it gets declined-who cares,there will be plenty of new Bitcoin ETFs. ;D
Calling this "the biggest news for Bitcoin in 2021" is definitely a clickbait.


Bitcoin ETFs have little to do with mass Bitcoin adoption.The "average Joe" doesn't care about exchange traded funds.

Isn't this the same company that is filing for the ETF back in 2017??
And is a thing like this considered a big news until now??

Is this a big news? Not even close. Paypal's integration of crypto in their system is bigger than this. ETF's doesn't excite investors anymore as there are many times that they have been declined. News like this are just being hyped by those Youtube crypto content creators so that it may sound like a good news but in reality, ETF particularly this VanEck ETF has been rejected for so many times already.

Nice clickbait by the OP though. Not a big news and not an exciting news to hear for the investors. However, if this time this will be approved it might create a domino effect and it might be a good thing with Bitcoin.

I fell for the clickbait headline myself too. I thought all this ETF news already lost their appeal though? I mean, we were all so hot for it in 2019 but when the ETFs finally came on to market last year, the interest wasn't so high. Institutionals now want physical Bitcoin and they want it to hodl, I guess. ETFs at least not physically settled ones, not so interesting for them now.

Maybe we won't appreciate it right now but someday it will be instrumental to the growth. I wouldn't consider this the biggest news for bitcoin in what is happening so far in 2021, I would rank maybe the new ATH first and then the 1.5 billion USD purchase of Tesla as second. This is actually good because people who are investing in ETF's can choose this although if they are managed I think that it wouldn't make any difference.

It isn't that big for anyone but I guess some people might consider it. I agree that this big news for bitcoin in 2021 is a instrument of growth for the next years. I guess this is just a stepping stone to a much bigger achievements that would definitely achieve someday. Bitcoin just only fueling the other goals that will achieve in the future. Bitcoin gaining many ATH this year is just an example of having a good background eventhough these past few weeks, bitcoin and as well as the other coins experience correction, I can say that it is just a good jump start to a even motr higher achievements.

Well, we are still only 3 months in 2021 that is why I choose those news as much bigger news than the OP. I know that there will be something big that is going to happen in the future but I don't think that what hasn't happen yet is not a big news. We have a different ideas of big news so I respect that.

Lol, another obvious click bait title.

As others have said, this is not the biggest news, there could be more in the next coming months that will push the price close to 6 digits. As for this news, not new, and I will say that community grew tired of this so called Bitcoin's ETF. In 2018, it was said that an ETF will really bring the market to a bull run, because that time we're in a bearish phase. However, after so many rejections, everyone totally forget about it and we have move on since.

We are already very surprise to see the  position of bitcoin. And predictors are saying that bitcoin will hit 6 digit in this year. Last two years were very bad year for crypto lovers . But now people are so happy to see the huge market . Everyone forget of last year's bad memories and wishing for success year

Great news but only if it gets approved. We’ve had so many failed ETF attempts so far, why would this one be any different? The Fed hates bitcoin, I don’t see why they’d approve one. Really hope this could get approval though.

Oh sure it's definitely still advantageous for Bitcoin in general because of the added liquidity and that some people might be putting money in it. But it's definitely NOT the biggest news of 2021; and not even close.

It's good, but nothing like super major in a way that people suddenly have access to BTC. GBTC has been available for a while now.

I don't think that's the biggest news for 2021, we're just about to enter the 2nd quarter of the year and there's more to go. If there will be the biggest news for this year.
I think that's about bitcoin hitting $100k and this news that you have shared, they've made it before and it's a big deal when we're in 2018 but this time, it's not a big news anymore.

You placed some emoji and wrote about best bitcoin news 2021 and I expected much more, but this can be even a big news. You maybe didn't know that but there are already multiple approved bitcoin ETF in different nations and counties and this is not the first one. However, this is a good new because this can speed up the adoption. This could be maybe biggest news if we were in 2017 but not today.
