Bitcoin proponents have reason to be merry as the alpha coin has gracefully ascended to a promising valuation of nearly $38,000 as of late Wednesday, reclaiming its throne with the highest value seen in the last 12 months.
Bitcoin bounced back strongly from its battering the day before, reaching within striking distance of a new 18-month high just shy of the vaunted price target.
A drop in federal interest rates, the expectation that Sam Bankman-Fried’s apology for his actions at FTX is a fresh start for the distressed sector, and the SEC’s approval of a bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) are some of the things that caused prices to rise.
ETFs are a type of investment product that tracks an index or a commodity. Bitcoin ETFs would allow investors to profit from bitcoin’s rising value without actually owning any bitcoin.
ByteTree pointed out that Bitcoin was doing much better than standard assets like gold and U.S. stock indexes, which have also been going up.
Reports say that a decision could bring in an extra $600 billion in demand. An approval for an ETF, according to CryptoQuant experts, will cause Bitcoin’s market capitalization to swell by $1 trillion.
Bitcoin Up 117% This YearAs this developed, Bitcoin has had a significant increase of over 117% in value over the course of this year. The anticipation of the halving event in 2024 has also contributed to the increase in market optimism.
The price of Bitcoin (BTC) is going up as people try to make up for all the ground they lost in the recent crash, which erased up to $90 million in open interest.
At $34,572, the 25-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) comes into view. BTC is trying to get back above the important support level at $36,788.
Despite an array of economic challenges, BTC continues to surge upward, registering a 126% year-to-date gain and options market data point to speculators angling toward the $40,000 level.
With the recent price increase, the Crypto Fear and Greed index has moved squarely into the “Greed” category, indicating that market mood has improved.
In an environment characterized by an optimistic and positive outlook, Bitcoin’s momentum could be amplified and gun for the psychological turning point of $40,000.
This would be a big 10% rise from where it is now. It’s getting stronger because the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is tilting northward, which shows a surge in momentum.
Is The Bear Market Behind Us?According to Zach Pandl, managing chief of research at crypto fund provider Grayscale Investments LLC:
“The recovery in crypto valuations can continue if real interest rates peak and we continue to see progress toward spot ETF approvals in the US market.”“Bitcoin is now going mainstream, and the bear is behind us,” Charlie Morris, founder of investment advisory company ByteTree, said in a Wednesday market report.
“The good times are here,” he said.Meanwhile, institutional investors have already begun deploying capital to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, while retail investors may be waiting for additional liquidity from approved ETFs.
Over the past year, institutional investors have poured over $1 billion into cryptocurrency, CoinShares data show (chart above).
