On Nov. 12, Bitcoin (BTC) reached $37,000, its highest level for 18 months. The increase came amid growing optimism that US regulators will soon approve a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF), which one analyst says could lead to the next bull run.
Market analysts looking at historical data suggest that an ETF approval could cause the asset’s price to rise further. One pundit on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) suggests this price rise could be the biggest Bitcoin bull market.
Bitcoin Close to Biggest Bull Run in History
Cryptocurrency analyst el_crypto_prof suggested on X that Bitcoin is on the cusp of “the biggest bull run of all time.” The expert said that Bitcoin recently flashed a rare buy signal, last seen eight years ago. The signal can be read on a chart using a long time frame.
Bitcoin has also risen above the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) line, which the expert calls an important level. These mechanics suggest that Bitcoin could soon break out into its largest bull market.
Record Growth Could Be Boosted by Bitcoin ETF
The positive signals fit into an intriguing period for Bitcoin, as it looks to reach a historical maximum in an environment of regulatory uncertainty.
Its recent price dynamics can be attributed to the potential approval of 12 Bitcoin spot ETFs. The latest odds predict the chance of an approval of the applications within the next week.
Bloomberg ETF analysts James Seyffart and Eric Balchunas noted that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has until Nov. 17 to review and potentially approve applications from well-known fund managers. Investors are focusing on an ETF approval for BlackRock, the world’s largest investment company. However, skeptics say an ETF approval does not guarantee a bull market.
