BTC is trading at an 18-month amid a resurgence of speculation that a spot Bitcoin ETF will soon receive approval. Bloomberg analysts noted the comment period of ETF applications will not resume until Nov. 17, providing an eight-day window in which the SEC can approve applicants.

Nouriel Roubini, a prominent economics and former outspoken crypto critic, has shocked onlookers by announcing plans for a digital token. Roubini's fintech company, Atlas Capital, recently unveiled the Atlas Climate Stablecoin, with the token backed by a portfolio of real-world assets.

And Binance launched a web3 wallet supporting popular services from Binance and DeFi protocols.

Crypto Markets Rally On Renewed Spot Bitcoin ETF Hype

TLDR Digital assets are rallying again as a fresh round of spot Bitcoin ETF speculation takes hold of the markets. The action comes after Bloomberg analysts tipped the SEC could approve all 12 ETF applicants this week.

SO WHAT Bloomberg's James Seyffart noted that the pending spot ETF applications will remain between comment periods until Nov. 17, providing a window in which the SEC can approve applications. A spot Bitcoin ETF would invest in and hold BTC for investors, unlike the derivatives contracts held by existing futures Bitcoin ETFs.

Crypto Critic Nouriel Roubini is Launching a Token

TLDR Onlookers were shocked to see Atlas Capital, a fintech firm founded by economist and outspoken crypto critic, Nouriel Roubini, planning on launching a digital token. The Atlas Climate Token will comprise a stablecoin pegged to a portfolio of real-world assets, including commodities, bonds, and REITs.

SO WHAT Roubini previously likened Bitcoin to "the mother of all bubbles," chastised cryptocurrency for manifesting "the biggest criminal heist in human history," and pronounced the entire sector a "collapsing Ponzi scheme" last year. Despite Roubini's past comments, Atlas Capital is hoping to carve out a segment of the web3 markets for itself.
