#  Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change Relating to the Listing and Trading of Shares of the 7RCC Spot Bitcoin and Carbon Credit Futures ETF

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) [^1] of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”) [^2] and Rule 19b-4 thereunder, [^3] notice is hereby given that, on September 25, 2025, NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca” or “Exchange”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

[^1] 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).

[^2] 15 U.S.C. 78a.

[^3] 17 CFR 240.19b-4.

**I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change**

The Exchange proposes to change the manner in which the shares of the 7RCC Spot Bitcoin and Carbon Credit Futures ETF (the “Fund”) are listed and traded on the Exchange. The proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's website at *www.nyse.com* and at the principal office of the Exchange.

**II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change**

In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries,  set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant parts of such statements.

**A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and the Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change**

**1. Purpose**

The Exchange proposes to change the manner in which the shares of the Fund (“Shares”) are listed and traded on the Exchange. The Shares were originally approved to list and trade on the Exchange pursuant to Rule 8.500-E. The Exchange now proposes to list and trade Shares of the Fund on the Exchange pursuant to Rule 8.201-E (Generic).

The Commission approved the listing and trading of shares of the Fund (the “Shares”) on the Exchange under Rule 8.500-E on November 15, 2024. [^4] Rule 8.500-E governs the listing and trading of Trust Units, which are securities issued by a trust, limited liability company, or other similar entity that, if applicable, is constituted as a commodity pool and that holds investments comprising or otherwise based on any combination of futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward contracts, swap contracts, commodities, and/or securities. Shares of the Fund have not yet listed and traded on the Exchange.

[^4]*See* Securities Exchange Act Release No. 101641 (November 15, 2024), 89 FR 92252 (November 21, 2024) (Notice of Filing of Amendment No. 4 and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of a Proposed Rule Change, as Modified by Amendment No. 4, To List and Trade Shares of the 7RCC Spot Bitcoin and Carbon Credit Futures ETF Under NYSE Arca Rule 8.500-E (Trust Units)) (the “Original Approval Order”).

On September 17, 2025, the Commission approved a proposed rule change to adopt Rule 8.201-E (Generic). [^5] Rule 8.201-E (Generic) provides for the generic listing and trading of Commodity-Based Trust Shares, [^6] which are permitted to be listed and traded on the Exchange without prior Commission approval order or notice of effectiveness pursuant to Section 19(b) of the Act.

[^5]*See* Securities Exchange Act Release No. 103995 (September 17, 2025) (SR-NASDAQ-2025-056; SR-CboeBZX-2025-104; SR-NYSEARCA-2025-54) (Order Granting Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule Changes, as Modified by Amendments Thereto, to Adopt Generic Listing Standards for Commodity-Based Trust Shares).

[^6] Commodity-Based Trust Shares are securities issued by a trust, limited liability company, partnership, or other similar entity (“Trust”) that represents investors' discrete identifiable and undivided beneficial ownership interest in the assets deposited into the Trust.

The Exchange proposes to now list and trade the Shares of the Fund pursuant to the generic listing standards set forth in Rule 8.201-E (Generic), which would permit the Fund to operate in reliance on the generic listing standards in Rule 8.201-E (Generic) instead of the terms of the Original Approval Order. The Exchange represents that the Shares will meet the requirements of Rule 8.201-E (Generic) on an initial and continued listing basis. In addition, the Exchange will comply with the requirements of Rule 19b-4(e) to list and trade Shares of the Fund on the Exchange.

**2. Statutory Basis**

The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular, the requirements of Section 6(b) [^7] of the Act. Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) [^8] requirements that the rules of an exchange be designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in regulating, clearing, settling, processing information with respect to, and facilitating transactions in securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest.

[^7] 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).

[^8] 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).

The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is designed to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest because it would allow the Fund to be listed and traded under Rule 8.201-E (Generic) instead of Rule 8.500-E. The proposed change would permit the Fund to operate in reliance on the generic listing standards in Rule 8.201-E (Generic) instead of the terms of the Original Approval Order, thereby facilitating the listing and trading of an exchange-traded product that will enhance competition among market participants, to the benefit of investors and the marketplace. The Exchange represents that the Shares will meet the requirements of Rule 8.201-E (Generic) on an initial and continued listing basis.

**B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition**

The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purpose of the Act. As discussed above, the proposed change is intended to facilitate the initial and continued listing and trading of the Shares on the Exchange, thereby promoting competition among exchange-traded products to the benefit of investors and the marketplace.

**C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others**

No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the proposed rule change.

**III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action**

Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not:

(i) significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest;

(ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and

(iii) become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act [^9] and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder. [^10]

[^9] 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).

[^10] 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).

At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
