The price of Bitcoin (BTC) has jumped 4% in less than a day to hit $28,270, while Bitcoin Cash (BCH) has seen an even larger spike of close to 6%.
This renewed momentum comes amidst an uptick in the broader crypto market as investor sentiment shifts bullish.
Meanwhile, the crypto market positivity is also boosting newer projects like Bitcoin Minetrix (BTCMTX), which many investors believe could be poised for significant gains when it launches on exchanges following its ongoing presale.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-renewed-investor-momentum-drives-bitcoin-price-jump">Renewed Investor Momentum Drives Bitcoin Price Jump</h2>
The recent price spike for Bitcoin comes as the crypto market sees renewed momentum following some positive events.
Firstly, <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/grayscale-gbtc-discount-falls-spot-bitcoin-etf-approval" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">the narrowing discount on Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust</a> is driving BTC’s price higher, given that it’s the lowest discount in nearly two years.
Analysts believe that the shrinking discount indicates that investors anticipate the SEC will approve one (or more) of the pending spot BTC ETF applications before year’s end.
Additionally, the last time that Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust traded at such a steep discount was in December 2021 – around the time of Bitcoin’s all-time high.

Secondly, the news that <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/ferrari-accept-crypto-payment-its-cars-us-2023-10-14/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ferrari will begin accepting cryptocurrency payments</a> has also acted as a tailwind for Bitcoin.
The luxury automaker confirmed it will enable BTC, ETH, and USDC as payment options for its sports cars in the U.S. starting in Q1 2024.
There were even rumors that BlackRock had its spot BTC ETF application approved, which helped boost BTC’s value – yet these rumors were disproved almost as soon as they appeared.
These three events have contributed to the bullish sentiment surrounding Bitcoin, driving its price higher.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bch-surges-in-tandem-with-broader-crypto-market">BCH Surges In Tandem With Broader Crypto Market</h2>
The positivity around Bitcoin has also affected Bitcoin Cash, one of the biggest gainers among major cryptocurrencies in the past 48 hours.
BCH is up almost 6% since yesterday, benefiting from the bullish sentiment rippling through the crypto market.
There haven’t been any news events directly related to Bitcoin Cash’s surge, suggesting that the coin’s movement is driven mainly by the broader market momentum.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/uEQCXeNT-S-IctT61MqMb5PRvcDGMBhmuvcvJuN86mcG_VXexWxy58eNmIUjKkFqZimhqDZ9WC63p3uIypsBF3i6mhWB9fO4287YS8TJeA7kpesud9ya7qlMg00M40LwcTE2ZucbLsXoCrAUpZljTXw" alt="">
</figure>
From a technical perspective, BCH has soared above the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on the daily time frame, indicating that the medium-term trend has flipped to the upside.
Additionally, BCH is continuing to post higher highs and lower highs, which is a sign of a bullish trend.
Should BCH breach the resistance zone at $250, last tapped on October 2, it could pave the way for the coin to return to June’s intra-year high.

Another cryptocurrency investors believe could be set for significant gains is <a href="https://coinpedia.care/b_btcmtx_43644?referrer=here%E2%80%99s-why-the-bitcoin-price-has-spiked-3-while-bch-jumps-even-higher-%E2%80%93-could-bitcoin-minetrix-also-rise" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin Minetrix (BTCMTX)</a>, which is currently amidst a presale fundraising event.
Bitcoin Minetrix offers a unique Stake-to-Mine system that allows BTCMTX holders to earn mining rewards without requiring specialized hardware or technical skills.
The project has already raised over $1.6 million in presale funding as it aims to decentralize and democratize Bitcoin mining.

With the 2024 Bitcoin halving expected to provide a boost to BTC’s value, Bitcoin Minetrix offers a potential way for investors to capitalize without having to overcome high barriers to entry.
Not only that, but Bitcoin Minetrix also boasts its own staking protocol, <a href="https://bitcoinminetrix.com/en/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">offering yields of 362% per year</a> at the time of writing.&nbsp;
This dual-earning approach has helped create a colossal buzz around the Bitcoin Minetrix presale, now in Stage 2 out of 10, offering BTCMTX tokens for just $0.011.
Following the presale’s conclusion, Bitcoin Minetrix’s developers intend to launch BTCMTX on several CEXs and DEXs, expanding its accessibility to retail investors.

</figure>
The developers have even launched a $30,000 “Minedrop” competition, where ten lucky winners will each receive $3,000 worth of BTCMTX tokens simply by completing several social media-related tasks.
With momentum building and tens of thousands of dollars being raised daily, Bitcoin Minetrix’s presale is on track to be a significant success before the end of the year.
To participate in the BTCMTX presale, prospective investors can visit <a href="https://coinpedia.care/b_btcmtx_43644?referrer=here%E2%80%99s-why-the-bitcoin-price-has-spiked-3-while-bch-jumps-even-higher-%E2%80%93-could-bitcoin-minetrix-also-rise" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">bitcoinminetrix.com</a> and buy tokens using ETH, USDT, or a credit/debit card.
