Bitcoin price has not gained upside momentum yet after the <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/bitcoin-halving/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin halving</a> in mid-April, with market sentiments still more focused on macroeconomic and geopolitical events. The launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. and other countries brought a paradigm shift in the Bitcoin investment ecosystem.
