PANews reported on November 21 that according to The Block, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed its decision on the Franklin Crypto Index ETF (code: EZPZ) applied by Franklin Templeton. The ETF plans to hold both Bitcoin and Ethereum assets, with Coinbase Custody Trust Company LLC serving as the digital asset custodian. If approved, it will be listed on the Cboe BZX exchange.

After receiving the application in August, the SEC said on Wednesday that it would extend the review period to fully consider the relevant issues in the proposal. This extension decision is consistent with recent market developments, including the launch of Bitcoin spot ETF options and the related trading rules for Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs approved earlier this year.
