To Whom it May Concern;

Please approve the pending application for a Bitcoin ETF. Your participation and leadership in this matter is of great importance. The existence of a Bitcoin ETF under the oversight of the SEC will provide substantial custodial protections to many investors who greatly need that at this time. We are living in an increasingly digital world; and as long as that remains the case, the growth of Bitcoin, Blockchain, and DTL are historical inevitabilities. Your approval and oversight of the Bitcoin ETF will both establish substantial consumer protections and American leadership in an industry and technology with limitless potential.
