Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Act"), 1 and Rule 19b-4 thereunder, 2 notice is hereby given that on January 10, 2025, Cboe EDGX Exchange, Inc.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to amend Rule 21.15(b) (Exchange Data Products) to adopt the Cboe Timestamping Service, which is a market data service comprised of two distinct market data reports. 3 The Cboe Timestamping Service will provide timestamp information for orders, 4 quotes and cancels for market participants. More specifically, the Cboe Timestamping Service reports will provide various timestamps relating to the message lifecycle throughout the exchange system. The first report-the Missed Liquidity Report-will cover order and quote messages and the second report-Cancels Report-will cover cancel messages. The proposed reports are optional products that will be available to all Members and Members may opt to choose both reports, one report, or neither report. Corresponding fees will be assessed based on the number of reports selected. 5 The text of the proposed rule change is provided in Exhibit 5.
Footnotes:
3 ?The Exchange previously submitted the proposed rule change on December 13, 2024 (SR-CboeEDGX-2024-082). The Exchange is withdrawing SR-CboeEDGX-2024-082 and submitting this filing to make clarifying, non-substantive changes to more clearly reflect the excluded trades in the Missed Liquidity Report, which the Exchange believes will avoid potential confusion.
4 ?Orders shall include both complex and simple orders.
5 ?The Exchange plans to submit a separate filing with the Commission pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) to propose fees for the Missed Liquidity Report and Cancels Report.
The proposed rule change, including the Exchange's statement of the purpose of, and statutory basis for, the proposed rule change, is available on the Exchange's website at https://markets.cboe.com/us/options/regulation/rule_filings/edgx/, at the Exchange's Office of the Secretary, and on the Commission's website at https://www.sec.gov/rules-regulations/self-regulatory-organization-rulemaking/national-securities-exchanges?file_number=SR-CboeEDGX-2025-002.
II. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action
The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act? 6 and Rule 19b-4(f)(6)? 7 thereunder. 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; or (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? 8 and Rule 19b-4(f)(6)? 9 thereunder.
Footnotes:
6 ?15 U.S.C. 78(b)(3)(A).
7 ?17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
8 ?15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
9 ?17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) requires the Exchange to give the Commission written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6)? 10 normally does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii), 11 the Commission may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposed rule change may become operative immediately upon filing. The Commission believes that waving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest because it will allow the Exchange to launch the proposed Missed Liquidity Report and Cancels Report on January 27, 2025. The Commission recognizes that the Exchange previously submitted the proposed rule change on December 13, 2024 (SR-CboeEDGX-2024-082), which would have resulted in an operative date of January 13, 2025. The Exchange withdrew filing SR-CboeEDGX-2024-082 on January 10, 2025, and the Commission did not receive any comments related to that filing. The Exchange submitted this filing to make a clarifying, non-substantive change to more clearly reflect the excluded trades under the Missed Liquidity Report, which the Exchange believes will avoid potential confusion. Further, this filing does not introduce any novel regulatory issues. Accordingly, the Commission designates the proposed rule change to be operative upon filing. 12

12 ?For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay, the Commission also has considered the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
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. If the Commission takes such action, the Commission will institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or disapproved.
