On June 20, 2024, Spot Bitcoin ETF admitted to Australia's ASX. VanEck's VBTC begins trading on the Australian Securities Exchange, the ASX's first Bitcoin ETF.
The ASX listing gave investors access to a Bitcoin ETF on Australia's primary securities exchange. It was separate from Monochrome's Cboe Australia launch earlier in the month.
The event belongs to the broader 2024 transition from scarce institutional Bitcoin access to a competitive, heavily intermediated market built around exchange-traded products.
