Bitcoin Reaches Highest Price in More Than One Month Following Optimism about ETF Announcement

Bitcoin's worth rose 10% to $29,405.22 at roughly 11 a.m. EST according to CoinGecko, the loftiest level since May 6 and extending its earlier gains. Investors have become increasingly upbeat regarding the likelihood of BlackRock and other big corporations putting money into digital assets. BlackRock just made an application to have a bitcoin ETF, which monitors bitcoin's actual market rate, earlier this week. Bitcoin reached its highest value in over a month on Wednesday, as traders anticipated the possibility of a spot bitcoin ETF with the submissions of applications by industry giants such as BlackRock. The coin's worth increased 10% to $29,405.22 at around 11 a.m. ET per CoinGecko information, continuing its growth from earlier in the day. Investors were encouraged by the interest of big-name institutions in the digital asset field, even through the ongoing turmoil in the crypto realm, like the FTX scandal and its related repercussions. "The entry of large institutions into the crypto spot market has certainly rekindled the bullish sentiment in the industry," stated Vijay Ayyar, head of international markets at CoinDCX, India's most substantial crypto exchange, in an interview with CNBC. He went on to explain, "We have also encountered major support at the $25K mark for BTC, and this surge has been caused primarily by buying action rather than short selling, which is a really healthy sign." Regarding market structure in the BTC market, the downward trend that began in April this year and continued for about 2 months has been broken. Consequently, traders would expect that the $32K level will likely be tested. Should this level be breached, then $36K and then $45-48K could become the target levels. BlackRock recently put forward a request to start a bitcoin ETF, which seeks to track bitcoin's market rate. Advocates of cryptocurrencies suggest that this could give investors access to the digital coin without having to own it. Coinbase, which is working in conjunction with BlackRock in the proposed ETF, has been under tremendous scrutiny from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission lately.Following BlackRock's declaration, a range of other asset management companies have filed applications for a bitcoin ETF, including WisdomTree.At the same time, investors have been keeping their eyes on macroeconomic indicators to see how the digital money market may shift.In the past, these virtual currencies have had a connection to the trends of financial markets in general, and bitcoin has usually tracked the cost of American stocks. So those involved have been looking at information about inflation and the economic condition in order to work out how much bitcoin might be trading for in the near future."Generally, cryptocurrencies have been trailing behind standard equities, so this is in a way a game of catch-up," said Ayyar.WATCH: Crypto aficionados want to reconfigure the internet with 'Web3.'
