It very may well be. I don't own any BTC and I had limited awareness of Blockstream until you mentioned it. I feel that this would make a stronger case for it being considered a security, though, no? And yet on September 27th 2023 Gensler reiterates Bitcoin is not a security:

I feel we're getting a bit into the weeds, though.
Is your stance that Bitcoin is a security and that remarks made two months ago by the Chairperson of the SEC are misguided?
Or is it that Bitcoin is not a security, but Ethereum is? If so, is that for technical reasons or just due to how it's discussed and marketed?
