Η JPMorgan συμμετέχει ενεργά στο BTC ETF, παρά τη φωνητική αποδοκιμασία του CEO Jamie Dimon
JPMorgan Chase agreed to play a vital role in BlackRock’s spot bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF) despite CEO Jamie Dimon’s vocal anti-crypto stance.
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has never been one to keep his disapproval of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies a secret. Despite the CEO’s opposition to digital assets, JPMorgan agreed to play a crucial role in BlackRock’s spot BTC ETF application.
Ο Jamie Dimon θα καταργούσε το Crypto αν μπορούσε
Just weeks ago, Jamie Dimon told the US government to shut down the industry. At the December 6 ακοή of the State Senate Banking Committee on oversight of Wall Street firms, Dimon said, “I’ve always been deeply opposed to crypto, bitcoin, etc.” According to the billionaire CEO, “The only true case for it is criminals,” and opined “, If I was the government, I’d close it down.”
Dimon has made numerous statements απορρίπτοντας bitcoin, urging people to “stay away” from cryptocurrencies, calling it a “fraud” in 2017. More πρόσφατα, Dimon referred to crypto as “decentralised Ponzi schemes” and suggested regulators shift their focus away from traditional banks to the crypto industry.
While Dimon continues to bash bitcoin, JPMorgan is investing more interest in the original crypto. On Friday, December 29, it was revealed that JPMorgan will play a significant role in BlackRock’s proposed BTC ETF. BlackRock amended its ETF application with the SEC ονοματοδοσία JPMorgan as one of its “authorized participants.”
για τους δικτυακός τόπος BlackRock explains that if it receives approval for its ETF, JPMorgan will play a “central role”, including “ensuring that ETF prices are accurate, and that trading is smooth, in all market conditions.”
Opinion - Hypocritical Much?
Dimon’s indirect involvement in crypto assets is confusing at best. While lobbying for a bitcoin ban, JPMorgan has been appointed in a massively important capacity as one of BlackRock’s capital market facilitators. Could we dare call this precarious situation somewhat hypocritical?
Ο εξέχων δικηγόρος των κρυπτονομισμάτων John Deaton επεσήμανε αυτή την υποκρισία σε ένα σχόλιο που έγινε στο an Χ ανάρτηση από τον αναλυτή του ETF του Bloomberg, Eric Balchunas.
Ο Balchunas δημοσίευσε στο X αμέσως μετά την ενημέρωση της BlackRock για το S-1 στην SEC, τονίζοντας την ειρωνεία του ρόλου της JPMorgan.
Ο Deaton έσπευσε να επικαλεστεί τη συμμετοχή της JPMorgan:
«Τι λέτε για αυτό @ewarren, του Jamie Dimon @ jpmorgan is involved with #Bitcoin despite its only use case serving terrorists, drug cartels and other criminals. Or maybe you and Jamie Dimon are simply gas lighting the American public.”
Adding to the confusion, JPMorgan recently ξεκίνησε its crypto token, JPM Coin, on a version of Ethereum for its institutional clients despite the bank being “deeply opposed” to the digital asset industry.
