Bitcoin has soared past the $45,000 mark, achieving a milestone not seen in nearly two years, buoyed by the anticipation of the imminent approval of a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF).
The cryptocurrency surged from $42,000 at the start of January, jumping over 6% in the past day and boasting a remarkable 170% increase in the past year.
Bitcoin has breached the critical resistance at $45,000, signaling the potential for a move toward $50,000. However, the closing price will determine its trajectory—either a continued surge or a retrace to prior levels.
This surge places Bitcoin above any price it attained throughout 2023, establishing a notable new annual high merely two days into 2024.

As Bitcoin surges past $45,000, marking a milestone last seen nearly 20 months ago, all eyes turn to the SEC's pending decisions on 14&nbsp;<a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-currency-news/michael-saylor-expects-bitcoin-surge-after-etf-approval" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">spot Bitcoin ETF applications</a>. This surge contrasts starkly with Bitcoin's dip into a prolonged bear market after its last $45,000+ valuation in April 2022, plunging to as low as $15,600.
As anticipation builds, opinions diverge on how an ETF approval might impact Bitcoin's immediate future. While some market observers anticipate a notable boost in Bitcoin's value post-approval, analysts predict a more subdued reaction. Citing diminishing implied volatility on Bitcoin options, they suggest that a significant rally on approval day might be unlikely.
<h4>Will this surge impact the whole crypto space?</h4>
A bullish run in Bitcoin tends to uplift the overall market sentiment, leading to increased confidence among investors. This positive sentiment often extends to other major cryptocurrencies, known as altcoins, driving their prices higher as well.
Bitcoin's dominance in the crypto space means its movements often set the tone for the market. When Bitcoin surges, it can attract more attention and investment into the entire crypto sector, benefiting other coins.
A rising Bitcoin price can trigger FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) among investors. This sentiment often leads to increased trading activity across the crypto space, benefiting not only Bitcoin but also other top cryptocurrencies.
<h4>Will this rise continue this year?</h4>
Bitcoin has achieved a new milestone at the start of this year, and it remains positive news for investors. Well, the continued rise of the Bitcoin price depends on several factors.
If the SEC approves a spot Bitcoin ETF, it might initially create significant market enthusiasm, potentially driving the price higher in the short term.
Just before this recent movement, notable actions regarding Bitcoin were witnessed by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-currency-news/bitcoin-momentum-with-microstrategy-and-ark-invest-moves" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MicroStrategy and ARK Invest</a>. Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy's chairman, increased the company's Bitcoin holdings, while Cathie Wood's ARK Invest surprised the market by selling off its entire position in Bitcoin.
Market sentiment plays a crucial role; positive news, adoption by major financial players, or regulatory developments can fuel upward momentum.
Bitcoin's history showcases periods of rapid price increases followed by corrections. Sudden market movements can occur due to various factors, leading to both upward and downward shifts.
The broader economic environment, geopolitical events, and global financial stability can also impact cryptocurrency markets.
