“The biggest use of the investment proceeds is more likely to be acquisitions and investments,” Bankman-Fried said. FTX acquired Blockfolio a year ago and Ledger X a few months ago. “There are a number more than we’re looking at,” he added.

NFL star Tom Brady and model Giselle Bundchen, who is Brady’s wife, play prominent roles in FTX advertisements.

“I think we might do a bit more of that,” Banksman-Fried said of pursuing more celebrity advertisement, though he noted the company has other priorities right now.

“Because our targets here are to form partnerships that we are really excited by, and that we hope our users will be really excited by too, it’s really dependent on who we can work something out with,” Bankman-Fried said. “I’m really optimistic that we may be able to grow our U.S. footprint by quite a large amount over the next few years.”

“I would not be surprised to see more regulation of the markets and exchanges, especially on the anti-market manipulation,” Bankman-Fried said.

FTX also hopes to expand its trading operations to the U.S., where its cryptocurrency exchange is not available. The company has offices in Chicago, Miami and other U.S. cities, but Bankman-Fried said the biggest obstacles in operating its cryptocurrency exchange platform in the country are licensing and regulations.

“We’re excited to work with the [Commodity Futures Trading Commission], excited to work with the SEC and with other regulators to figure out how we can have fully regulated and licensed market activity in the United States,” Bankman-Fried said.

After almost a decade of wrangling with regulators, the ETF industry has finally gotten a fund that tracks the price of Bitcoin. But at this point, it may be easier and cheaper for the average investor to just buy Bitcoin.

The ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF — ticker BITO — began trading Tuesday in a landmark moment for the $6.8 trillion ETF industry. In the first hour and a half of trading alone, more than $400 million worth of shares changed hands.

NEWS ALERT October 19, 2021, 10:14 a.m. EST: ProShares—a provider of specialized exchange-traded products based in Bethesda, Maryland—began trading of the Bitcoin Strategy Fund on Oct. 19, 2021, marking the first Bitcoin ETF to trade in the nation. The fund will trade under the ticker BITO.

It seems inevitable that two of the hottest areas of the investment world would meet up sooner or later. For cryptocurrency enthusiasts and investors looking to capitalize on the growing popularity of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), the possibility of an ETF that tracks bitcoin is the best opportunity for this type of connection. However, there have been growing pains and problems in trying to launch the first bitcoin ETFs.

The reason is that bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency in the world by market capitalization, remains largely unregulated. Additionally, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is hesitant to allow an ETF focused on the new and largely untested cryptocurrency market to make its way to the public.
