<p>Bitcoin, the pioneering cryptocurrency, surged past the $44,000 mark, hitting levels unseen in over 18 months, fueled by mounting anticipation surrounding the potential approval of a new Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in early 2024. The cryptocurrency’s value has skyrocketed by a staggering 160% this year, predominantly driven by growing expectations of SEC greenlighting the ETF.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaNNBpJ4mVc" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Scott Galloway,</a> featured on the Prof G Show, expressed optimism about the ETF’s approval, likening it to a user-friendly gateway for investors, drawing parallels to purchasing stocks on widely accessible platforms like Schwab.com and Robinhood. He foresees this ETF contributing to an expanded market and heightened demand, potentially bolstering the ongoing rally in Bitcoin’s value.</p>
<p>However, Galloway cautioned against interpreting this surge as a fundamental shift in value, highlighting the persistent speculative nature of the cryptocurrency market. He correlated the recent surge to the introduction of ETFs by major asset managers such as BlackRock, citing past instances where endorsements, notably from SoftBank, influenced market dynamics.</p>

<p>Analyst Ali pointed out a trend among significant Bitcoin holders increasing their holdings post a recent price drop, indicating wealthy investors capitalizing on the dip to acquire more. As per the analysis a strong support zone for Bitcoin between $37,150 and $38,360, backed by 1.52 million addresses holding 534,000 Bitcoin. Additionally, the potential resistance levels at $43,850 and $46,400 could impede Bitcoin’s upward trajectory.</p>
<p>The recent release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) showing a 3.1% increase in November led to a 1.21% drop in Bitcoin prices, settling at $41,166. Ethereum, following suit, experienced a 1.20% decline, resting at $2,180, signaling a prevailing negative sentiment across the market.</p>
<p>Amidst these fluctuations, market observers are closely monitoring the potential SEC approval of the Bitcoin ETF, the behavior of significant holders, and key support and resistance levels, as these factors continue to shape the trajectory of Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency market.</p>
