Thursday morning in Asia, the top-tier non-stablecoin cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ether, experienced an unexpected drop. Following a favorable court ruling in Grayscale Investments’ struggle against the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) over a Bitcoin ETF issue, this drop comes after the market showed signs of recovery. Simultaneously, US equity futures remained neutral after four-day increases across significant benchmarks. In the wake of weaker-than-expected economic statistics, market investors are looking forward to the release of US job data. 
Bitcoin, the flagship cryptocurrency, fell 1.35% in the last 24 hours, closing at $27,248.34 at 06:55 a.m. in Hong Kong. Despite this, Bitcoin posted a remarkable 3.04% weekly rise, according to CoinMarketCap data. Bitcoin even reached the $28,000 mark in the early hours of Thursday before falling back. 
Ether, another significant player in the crypto arena, has also suffered losses, falling 1.57% in the last 24 hours to $1,702.62. Despite this, Ether gained 1.60% in a week. The top 10 non-stablecoin cryptocurrencies declined, with Solana’s SOL leading the field with a 4.28% dip. Toncoin, on the other hand, stood out as an exception, gaining 0.28% in the past 24 hours. 
These market declines came after a prior day of gains, fueled by an optimistic verdict favoring Grayscale Investments. Based in Connecticut, Grayscale was involved in a legal battle with the SEC when the latter rejected Grayscale’s plan to convert its GBTC Bitcoin fund into an exchange-traded fund (ETF). The latest United States appeals court judgment overruled the SEC’s view, potentially paving the door for further ETF approvals. 
This development elicited strong comments from the crypto community. Nigel Green, founder of deVere financial management business, welcomed the court’s judgment as a watershed moment in the evolution of spot Bitcoin ETFs, forecasting a subsequent favorable market trend. Green emphasized the potential for ETFs to generate a significant demand for actual Bitcoins to back ETF shares. 
Opinions diverge as the crypto ecosystem matures. Matteo Greco, a research analyst at Fineqia International, had a more measured approach, highlighting that the court’s judgment is only one aspect of a complex application procedure that is still ongoing. While the verdict opens the door for Grayscale’s Bitcoin ETF quest, he cautioned that it does not ensure immediate success or future listings. 
The buildup to Bitcoin’s next halving event in April 2024 adds another dimension of suspense. With the issuance of new Bitcoins likely to be halved, rising demand prompted by probable ETF approvals and Bitcoin’s inherent scarcity might result in a significant price increase. 
While the crypto market fluctuates, the global financial arena is likewise on a precarious path. Weaker-than-expected US economic data has fueled prospects for a postponement of interest rate hikes at the Federal Reserve’s September meeting. The recent GDP report, which showed a lower-than-expected 2.1% growth rate and sluggish job openings data, reinforces expectations of a cautious posture. 
In a world where economic indicators are everything, all eyes are on the upcoming publication of US jobs data. The future remains unknown but undeniably intriguing due to market instability in the crypto and traditional financial sectors.
