Spot Bitcoin ETF Approval: When Will It Happen?

Author: COINTURK NEWS

Bitcoin needs a major price catalyst to experience impressive price surges once again, and one of the biggest catalysts is the approval of a spot ETF. In the coming days, a decision regarding the Ark Invest application will be made, and crypto billionaire Mike made important statements. What are the details of his comments today?

When Will Spot Bitcoin ETF Approval Happen?

Mike Novogratz, the Founder and CEO of Galaxy Digital, argues that the most powerful obstacle to the growth potential in the crypto industry is the SEC Chairman. According to him, the approval of the Spot Bitcoin ETF for BlackRock and Invesco will come “within four to six months.” Mike believes that this is just a matter of time and is confident about the approval.

Cathie Wood, on the other hand, stated yesterday that they will receive a decision deferral announcement for their own applications on August 13. She also emphasized that issuers of Spot Bitcoin ETFs will fight each other like cats and dogs. All ETFs will hold BTC and those who implement the best marketing strategy will pocket billions of dollars in profits.

The Future of Cryptocurrencies

Michael Novogratz said that after the turbulence in the crypto world last year, he saw signs of increased participation from more traditional institutional investors in the crypto markets.

“Institutions have returned to some extent in the short term. They have returned to futures. They have returned to some of these stocks. But more importantly, they are giving signals of a structural return.”

Novogratz, the founder and CEO of Galaxy Digital Holdings Ltd, maintains his optimism about the future of the market. Moreover, his expectation of approval within “6 months” mentioned in the first section seems to be in line with the Bitcoin halving period. Moreover, considering the belief that the Fed will start interest rate cuts in the second quarter of 2024, market views also align with the timeline.

Of course, cryptocurrency markets are famous for their unpredictability. Moreover, as the years go by, the multiplier effect on market growth weakens. Nevertheless, the preparation of corporate giants led by BlackRock for the 2024 bull story excites everyone.

Time will show whether Mike is right or not. For now, the price of Bitcoin continues to struggle to surpass the $29,500 region.
