NASDAQ, which will be listed as Bitcoin, Ethereum in 2019?

As NASDAQ, the world's second-largest stock exchange, has raised the market capitalization of cryptocurrency (virtual currency), it is expected that many of its coins will be listed in 2019.

The news is that the U.S. regulator, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), is banning the large number of Bitcoin ETF (exchange index fund), which has no listed Federal exchanges.

Especially, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), which is the world's largest exchange with the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), is the world's largest software company (MS) that will join the market in October.

According to an exclusive report by the ICO Journal, which specializes in cryptocurrency, a reliable source said, Bitcoin and Ethereum could soon be listed on the NASDAQ.

"The SEC and the CFTC will continue to discuss over the next three to six months regarding the listed coin regulations," sources said.

Last month, Nasdaq held a closed-door meeting with Wall Street representatives to discuss how to legalize cryptocurrency. Representatives from about six companies participated, including Gemini, the cryptocurrency exchange, and other cryptocurrency exchange. They discussed whether or not to legalize the cryptocurrency, whether it needs to be regulated in the future, what tools are needed if it is regulated, and how to monitor them.

Earlier in June, Adena Friedman, CEO of NASDAQ, claimed that cryptocurrency could be a useful tool.

On the other hand, experts in cryptocurrency said, "If technology-intensive exchanges like NASDAQ participate in the cryptocurrency market, the area will evolve and mature."
