<p>Mathew Sigel, Head of Digital Assets Research at VanEck, commented on the competitive landscape, noting the potential market impact if a major player like BlackRock enters the scene. </p> 
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"> 
 <p>Sigel stated, “If BlackRock reaches the market then some percentage of the wire houses and financial advisers will add their fund to platforms.”</p> 
</blockquote> 
<p>VanEck expects the SEC to approve a spot Bitcoin ETF in January and predicts $2.4 billion in inflows in the first quarter. They also project Bitcoin’s price to reach $100,000 by 2024, slightly below Galaxy Research’s $14 billion inflow prediction for the ETF’s first year.</p>
