 <p>Bitcoin (BTC) <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="briefly" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/briefly.html">briefly</a> surpassed the $37,000 mark for the first time in 18 months as the wider <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="market" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/market.html">market</a>s reflect <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="optimism" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/optimism.html">optimism</a> over the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="pending" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/pending.html">pending</a> <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="approval" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/approval.html">approval</a> of spot BTC exchange-traded funds in the United States.</p>
 <p>Data from a number of cryptocurrency market platforms, including Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView, showed BTC/USD hitting $37,052 at 8.09 am EST on Nov. 9 before retracing below the mark.</p>
 <p>Bitcoin’s most recent price surge has been attributed to the pending approval of 12 separate spot Bitcoin ETFs over the next week. According to Bloomberg ETF analysts James Seyffart and Eric Balchunas, the SEC has a window up until Nov. 17 to approve a number of high-profile offerings from prominent U.S. fund managers.</p>
 <p>While there is much fanfare over the potential approval of these highly-anticipated BTC products, both analysts have also noted that there could be a lag time of a month or more before these offerings actually launch.&nbsp;</p>
 <p>Meanwhile Grayscale, which is the largest cryptocurrency asset manager in the U.S., has also reportedly engaged the SEC directly as it looks to convert its Grayscale Bitcoin Trust to a spot Bitcoin ETF.&nbsp;The US is yet to see a spot Bitcoin ETF approved. This offering allows investors to gain indirect exposure to a financial product that is physically backed by BTC.</p>
