(Reuters) - Global X, a provider of exchange-traded funds, has withdrawn its application for spot bitcoin ETF, a regulatory filing showed on Tuesday, making it the first company among those that applied to the U.S. securities regulator for approval last year to do so.

The company had about $51 billion of assets under management in its ETFs worldwide, as of December 2023, according to its website.
