Bitcoin price is currently at $51,440 as this article is being prepared, and just a few minutes ago, Bloomberg announced a critical development. Although the effects of the last crypto winter are now less felt, we continue to deal with its consequences. Some of the bankrupt companies had shaken the markets with asset sales in the past months. Now, another sell-off could begin.
Potential for Bitcoin Decline
If we are to see a short-term drop supported by profit-taking sales, the excuse has just arrived. The court has granted permission for Genesis to sell $1.3 billion worth of GBTC shares. The recent daily net inflow into ETFs was around $600 million, close to the demand ceiling of a few days. If the markets are to experience a downturn, this court decision could be cited as the reason in a few hours.
Although the sale of GBTC shares has been authorized, the demand for spot Bitcoin ETFs has been strong since the early days, so investors positioning based on the news might be misled by the market. We will see the outcomes of this development in the upcoming hours, which could support volatility.
