Determine Whether To Approve or Disapprove a Proposed Rule Change To 
List and Trade Shares of the Teucrium Bitcoin Futures Fund Under NYSE 
Arca Rule 8.200-E, Commentary .02 (Trust Issued Receipts)

January 25, 2022.
    On July 23, 2021, NYSE Arca, Inc. (``NYSE Arca'') filed with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to 
Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ 
and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to list and trade 
shares of the Teucrium Bitcoin Futures Fund under NYSE Arca Rule 8.200-
E, Commentary .02 (Trust Issued Receipts). The proposed rule change was 
published for comment in the Federal Register on August 11, 2021.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 92573 (Aug. 5, 
2021), 86 FR 44062. Comments on the proposed rule change can be 
found at: <a href="https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-nysearca-2021-53/srnysearca202153.htm">https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-nysearca-2021-53/srnysearca202153.htm</a>.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On September 15, 2021, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\4\ 
the Commission designated a longer period within which to approve the 
proposed rule change, disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute 
proceedings to determine whether to disapprove the proposed rule 
change.\5\ On November 8, 2021, the Commission instituted proceedings 
under Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act \6\ to determine whether to 
approve or disapprove the proposed rule change.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 92999, 86 FR 52539 
(Sept. 21, 2021).
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B).
    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 93534, 86 FR 63082 
(Nov. 15, 2021).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \8\ provides that, after initiating 
proceedings, the Commission shall issue an order approving or 
disapproving the proposed rule change not later than 180 days after the 
date of publication of notice of filing of the proposed rule change. 
The Commission may extend the period for issuing an order approving or 
disapproving the proposed rule change, however, by not more than 60 
days if the Commission determines that a longer period is appropriate 
and publishes the reasons for such determination. The proposed rule 
change was published for comment in the Federal Register on August 11, 
2021.\9\ The 180th day after publication of the proposed rule change is 
February 7, 2022. The Commission is extending the time period for 
approving or disapproving the proposed rule change for an additional 60 
days.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
    \9\ See supra note 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission finds that it is appropriate to designate a longer 
period within which to issue an order approving or disapproving the 
proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the 
proposed rule change and the issues raised in the comments that have 
been submitted in connection therewith. Accordingly, the Commission, 
pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\10\ designates April 8, 2022, 
as the date by which the Commission shall either approve or disapprove 
the proposed rule change (File No. SR-NYSEArca-2021-53).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).

    For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, 
pursuant to delegated authority.\11\

Assistant Secretary.
