Bitcoin ETF Spot Market Poised To Hit $100 Billion: Bloomberg

Bitcoin ETF approval has now become the most anticipated event in the cryptocurrency industry. Meanwhile, Bloomberg Intelligence estimates that the Spot BTC ETF if approved, will be worth approximately $100 billion in the current market valuation.

The fluctuation in the Bitcoin Price is evidence of what happens when such news spreads around the market. Retail and institutional investors are all eyeing the first Bitcoin Spot ETF approval. The current decision to approve any of the filings is still under the scrutiny of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The current scenario however looks stable as experts have predicted that the first Bitcoin Spot ETF would go live around January.

Financial Giants Waiting for Bitcoin ETF Approval

With the likes of BlackRock, Fidelity, and Invesco expected to enter the market, experts believe that the Bitcoin Spot ETF market may grow to $100 billion or more.

Galaxy Digital Holdings Ltd., which is working on an application with Invesco, recently hosted a call with roughly 300 investing professionals to discuss Bitcoin allocation ideas as the ETF launch approaches.  Notably, Jeff Janson, a wealth adviser at Summit Wealth who manages over $550 million, is preparing for the debut and anticipates strong institutional interest once the SEC approves it.

As per experts, the upcoming ETFs will provide a cost-effective, direct route for investors to access pure Bitcoin, bypassing additional expenses from futures-based options.
