Benzinga - Bitcoin was up 4% in the past 24 hours, taking the apex cryptocurrency slightly above the $30,000 level to $30,074. The last time the price broke above the $30,000 level was in August 2023.
Earlier this week, Blackrock (NYSE:BLK) and Fidelity made amendments to their spot Bitcoin ETF filings. Also, Grayscale submitted an S-3 filing on similar approval pursuits.
As hope grows with the refiling and modifications for a spot Bitcoin ETF, the price has gently dipped below $30,000, standing at $29,582 at the time of writing.
Hopefully, approval will be received for Spot Bitcoin ETF by Benzinga’s Future of Digital Assets conference in New York on Nov.14. Attend and learn more about how the ETF approval will play the crypto markets. The gathering is seen as pivotal for the digital assets community. The event will spotlight the latest trends, innovations, and challenges in the digital asset realm.
What Experts Say?
A Matrixport report indicates a possibility of Bitcoin surging to $56,000 in case Blackrock’s ETF receives approval. Market experts believe that while rumors of approval have already caused notable price swings in Bitcoin, the reaction to an actual approval might be even more pronounced.
Enigma Securities analyst Joe Edwards says that a potential approval could also be a “sell the news” event with Bitcoin prices soaring initially before the decline, as reported by CoinDesk
Across the crypto board, Ethereum prices jumped 3.3% while BNB is 1% higher. XRP token has seen a 7% surge after the SEC asked a judge to dismiss lawsuits against Ripple’s executives. Meanwhile, Solana's is up 10.58% in the past 24 hours.
