Markets are facing corrections after fake news of an ETF approval sent cryptos pumping. This came as the SEC website was hacked, giving out unauthorized news of an ETF approval. The global market cap has declined by 0.9% from its previous 24-hour mark in the unfolding of this event.
The @SECGov twitter account was compromised, and an unauthorized tweet was posted. The SEC has not approved the listing and trading of spot bitcoin exchange-traded products.
