Throughout summer, Bitcoin price has been swinging between $6,000 and $8,000. However, according to some price analysts, Bitcoin price may well see a breakout come November. Forbes’ Billy Bambrough opines that market experts expect the breakout as early as November this year. However, he recognizes that a section of these experts are pegging their hopes on September, with the end month favored.
The ProspectsThis breakout is expected because of two primary reasons: First, SEC is deliberating on whether to approve the Bitcoin ETF application presented by SolidX/VanEck. The decision is set to happen on or before September 30, and hopes are high that the proposal might be approved especially after the decision was delayed. Also, the fact that SEC announced its decision to review 9 other ETF applications turned down recently is another strong indication that things could turn out positive for the crypto.
Secondly, the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), which is NYSE’s parent company, is set to launch a Bitcoin ETF on 5th November. The ICE launched a crypto platform, Bakkt, back in July and has partnered with large corporations like Microsoft, Boston Consulting Group, and Starbucks. However, the ICE’s ETF will differ from others in that it will be offered via its own platform and will use Bitcoin for every transaction conducted on its network. This measure is aimed at improving price discovery.
Finnbjornsson: Bitcoin Price To Hit $10,000Bambrough also cited another expert, Hermann Finnbjornsson, who said that the value of Bitcoin could swell up to hit $10,000 within the first week of November. Hermann is the founder and chief executive at Svandis, a crypto advisory firm. Speaking to The Street, Hermann said that Bitcoin had a more than 99% chance to succeed in a bullish run.
However, there’s a still some debate within the crypto community about whether Bitcoin really needs an ETF approval to succeed. So far, the cryptocurrency has survived and weathered storms for a whole decade since its inception back in 2009. This puts to question the impact of an ETF approval on the Bitcoin market. Granted, there exists a possibility of the cryptocurrency being over-financialized as a result of an ETF.
In any case, the events of late September and early November will spell out the future of the coin market. If both ETFs pull through, it could mean a huge boom with a significant price upshot for the cryptocurrency.
