<p>After the spot Bitcoin ETF approval by the SEC, many people in the industry assumed that the approval would boost the price of Bitcoin but it did not happen. Since the spot Bitcoin ETF has been approved, Bitcoin has shown very low performance.</p> 
<p>Peter Schiff Chief economist and global strategist at europac.com shared his insight on why Bitcoin is performing at a low price the major reason behind this is people are selling more Bitcoin than buying due to temporary profits and this results in a loss in Bitcoin’s performance.</p>

Once the initial ETF demand wanes, I expect a bigger price drop.</p>— Peter Schiff (@PeterSchiff) <a href="https://twitter.com/PeterSchiff/status/1747692623236915749?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 17, 2024</a>

<p>Anthony Scaramucci, founder of SkyBridge Capital also shared his thoughts on why there is a downturn in Bitcoin’s performance because of selling pressures from GBTC and the fallout from the FTX position. January 16, data indicated that Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) transferred 8,730 BTC, valued at approximately $376 million, to Coinbase Prime. Bitcoin is currently trading at $42, 445, but many prominent figures have said that it will bounce back. It recently became the second-largest commodity ETF in the US, surpassing Silver.</p>
