The crucial filing is a significant step for 7RCC, joining the spot Bitcoin ETF race in the US. The SEC finally approved eleven spot Bitcoin ETFs in January, more than a decade after the initial filing.
The initiative aims to provide customers with a blend of Bitcoin exposure as well as carbon credits, making it unique. The carbon credit futures are linked to emissions allowances issued under several regulatory frameworks.
7RCC’s co-founder and CEO, Rali Perduhova expressed positivity around the asset class in the near future. In a Bloomberg interview, she expressed optimism predicting that Bitcoin price could reach $200,000 by the end of the year.
