<p><a href="https://bitcoin.org/en/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Bitcoin</a> price has once again crossed above $64k – a level last seen back in early August. <a href="https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2024/09/26/bitcoin-jumps-over-64k-ahead-of-powell-speech-ibit-options-could-provide-longer-term-boost/?_gl=1*1g0v96h*_up*MQ..*_ga*MjAzMjc0NjUzNi4xNzI3MzYwMTU4*_ga_VM3STRYVN8*MTcyNzM2MDE1Ny4xLjAuMTcyNzM2MDE1Ny4wLjAuMTE3MTgwNjY3MA.." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Sources</a> claim that the rise comes within expectations of more economic activity after China’s latest round of fiscal and monetary stimulus, along with approval for options on Blackrock’s Bitcoin Trust (IBIT). According to analysts, these developments could help pave the way to another serious leg higher in the crypto market. But is this enthusiasm justified, or are investors again painting the rosy picture?</p> 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-chinese-stimulus-boosts-market-confidence-strong"><strong>Chinese Stimulus Boosts Market Confidence</strong></h2> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The recent pep talk by the Chinese government on pumping in $142 billion into the banking system has been met with a positive response from the Asian markets. The Shanghai Composite Index gained 3.6% this week, making it the best week to trade the market in the past decade. This step has been made with the intention of providing sufficient growth and stability to the world’s economic situation and financial systems, specifically those that face unstable conditions at the present stage of their development.</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">More specifically, the investment in Chinese state-owned financial institutions is viewed as a major part of a Chinese plan to further its economic growth ambitions, said John Smith of Global Market Insights. “Something like this is going to have a carry-over effect on the global markets for things such as Bitcoin.”</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">The result of this stimulus was observed instantly, as the price of Bitcoin was over $ 64,000 during the early American session. The emergence of more liquidity in the global markets will allow people to approach Bitcoin prices as protection from traditional markets.</p> 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-ibit-options-approval-could-spark-institutional-interest-strong"><strong>IBIT Options Approval Could Spark Institutional Interest</strong></h2> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The other fundamental consideration that has boosted Bitcoin price in recent days is that Blackrock’s IBIT has granted approval for the trading of options. This action is regarded as a landmark in the cryptocurrency market as describing broader institutional adoption. The availability of options opens up an opportunity to use these tools to hedge or gain on floating in the Bitcoin market, thus enhancing the liquidity of the options market.</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“The approval would lead to better liquidity and greater investor access to the bitcoin market, carrying forward the process of institutional integration,” CryptoQuant, an on-chain analytics firm, said in an email to CoinDesk.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">For Bitcoin’s price to grow to the next level, more institutions must start to take an interest in it. New trends from SoSoValue suggest that the total net new inflows in Bitcoin ETFs have exceeded $100 million for another day consecutively.</p> 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-retail-investors-show-renewed-confidence-strong"><strong>Retail Investors Show Renewed Confidence</strong></h2> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Even though they are gaining attention from institutional investors, the individual traders are not being left behind. Data for the last 30 days show that small and medium-sized retail investors have been eager participants and have bought 35,000 BTC. This accumulation trend can be interpreted as retail investors building their inventory of stocks, probably awaiting future higher returns, maybe because of the anticipation of another rally soon.</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Priority changes in the markets have also been influenced by actions made by the Federal Reserve in recent weeks. Last week, the Fed delivered its first round of rate cuts that unleashed fresh buying pressure into risky assets, such as Bitcoin. As per the CME FedWatch Tool, the chances of getting 50 basis points cut in November have increased to about 62 percent, which in-turn can strengthen the argument of Bitcoin as an asset class among the investors.</p> 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-gold-sets-new-records-amidst-global-uncertainty-strong"><strong>Gold Sets New Records Amidst Global Uncertainty</strong></h2> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">As Bitcoin prices continue to rise, gold, another traditional safe-haven commodity, has also been on the rise. It settled at above $2700 an ounce as global economic concerns, and the potential for a return to monetary easing boosted precious metal demand.</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">But at the same time, there are opinions that the current level of optimism in relation to the Bitcoin currency may be rather early. However, the fact that the approval of the Chinese stimulus and the IBIT options are positive signs may not be enough to sustain this bull run in the long term. It continues to depend on global economic factors, especially a shift in Central Bank policies.</p> 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-bitcoin-price-a-volatile-road-ahead-strong"><strong>Bitcoin Price: A Volatile Road Ahead?</strong></h2> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Bitcoin price break above the $64,000 mark has pumped the tyres of another bullish charge because of upward drivers such as the Chinese stimulus and the approval of IBIT options trading. Nevertheless, the market instability persists, and there is no clear future for the development of e-commerce.</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400; text-align: left;">For now, the question remains: Is Bitcoin price heading to trading above $65,000, or the current selling is a mere and short-lived reaction to some positive development? Only time will tell, but one thing is clear: as it stands, the volatility characterising the cryptocurrency market has not changed.
