If investors believed that a Bitcoin Spot ETF was approved, it could have led to increased optimism about the overall crypto market, including Bitcoin Cash, as it suggests greater institutional interest and legitimacy for cryptocurrenciesm," he stated.&nbsp;"I think that bitcoin cash simply pushed higher because traders flocked to it after yesterdays fake Bitcoin Spot ETF news," said Bernegger.&nbsp;Tim Enneking, managing director of <a href="https://www.digital-capital-management.com/">Digital Capital Management</a>, provided some additional input on these recent developments.&nbsp;He described bitcoin cash as "still separate from BTC but struggling to maintain its own raison d&rsquo;&ecirc;tre.""With respect to this most recent move, I would say it 100% is an echo of what BTC is doing," he added.&nbsp;Disclaimer: Crypto is a high-risk asset class.
