Investor enthusiasm triggers a rally in the flagship crypto
After several weeks of resistance, bitcoin (BTC) has once again hit the $30,000 mark. This is the 3ᵉ time, since the beginning of the year, that this has happened. A surge that confirms the projections of several experts on this subject.
How can we explain this latest upturn in bitcoin’s valuation? For some analysts, you don’t have to look far. The enthusiasm that has reigned in the crypto ecosystem over the past few days is the first clue.
Other crypto specialists go further, attributing the surge in bitcoin’s price to much more factual elements. The first, and most important, is the prospect of the imminent approval of a Bitcoin ETF.
With this prospect, which has the backing of firms such as JPMorgan, at least $150 billion in institutional investments and qualified investors are expected. An influx that would propel the total valuation of the crypto market above the $1,000 billion mark.
A delayed rise in the price of BTC?
Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, was not indifferent to the rise in the price of BTC. Commenting on the news, he described the rise in the price of the flagship crypto as “a manifestation of pent-up demand”.
In other words, Larry Fink believes that BTC’s meteoric rise is the result of pre-existing, pent-up demand that has finally been unleashed. A comment that highlights the crypto market’s growing attractiveness, which he expects to maintain its upward momentum.
It’s an interesting prospect, but don’t be fooled. Indeed, despite the prevailing optimism, experts are pointing to some major operational concerns. These concern the cumulative volume of trade, which remains below 40 billion.
Added to this are concerns about the relatively low liquidity of exchanges. These concerns suggest that the price of bitcoin could fall back to around $27,300. Over the past hour, BTC has lost 0.37% of its price, to trade at around $29,890.
