With expectations for a Bitcoin spot Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) somewhat dampened, the cryptocurrency market globally remains in a stable mood, hovering around the $25,000 range. As the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) decided to postpone its approval of Bitcoin spot ETF applications on the 31st of last month (local time), the market seems to be taking a wait-and-see stance.
In general, Altcoin (alternative virtual assets except Bitcoin) follows the flow of Bitcoin (BTC), a leading stock, and Michael van de Poppe, a veteran cryptocurrency analyst with about 670,000 X (former Twitter) followers, claimed that Altcoin was preparing for a strong turnaround.
He mentioned through X on September 4th,
“Bitcoin dominance keeps falling. Generally, the weakening data of BTC.D (Bitcoin Dominance, the market capitalization share of Bitcoin in the global cryptocurrency market) is interpreted as a positive signal for altcoins. With Bitcoin’s halving just 8 to 10 months away, altcoins are gaining momentum, albeit slowly.” He emphasized, “Bull markets often start when no one expects it, and now could be that time.”
Furthermore, cryptocurrency research firm K33 Research mentioned the possibility of an Ethereum (ETH) futures ETF being approved in the middle of October, expecting ETH to gain stronger momentum in the short term. There is also a forecast that changes in U.S. accounting rules could be a new positive factor for the cryptocurrency market.
