ETF Approval Date Expectation

Bloomberg analyst James Seyyfart announced the decision dates for the SEC’s spot Bitcoin ETFs.

In a tweet, Bloomberg analyst James Seyyfart disclosed the dates for the SEC’s decisions regarding approval, rejection, or postponement.

Seyyfart stated in his announcement that the expected timeframe is between January 5 and January 10.

We are observing expectations being priced into the cryptocurrency market in anticipation of any approval from the SEC.

Seyyfart had previously indicated that the probability of approval for spot Bitcoin ETFs by January 10, 2024, was 90% and had also emphasized that it could come earlier.

Powell’s Statements:

Following comments from Fed Chairman Powell, investors became more confident that the Fed had completed its interest rate hikes, leading to a rally in U.S. stocks and Bitcoin. Bitcoin reached $39,000 and successfully broke through resistance to continue its upward trend.

The decline in U.S. bond yields was also among the reasons for this rally. We observed a significant increase in risk appetite in December, just as in November. But this is just the beginning.

Looking at the last 24 hours, $188 million were liquidated from the cryptocurrency market, affecting over 68,000 crypto investors.

Short positions constituted 77.73% of the liquidated positions, with the most liquidation occurring in Bitcoin.

BTC:

Following Powell’s statements on Friday evening, we see Bitcoin surpassing the psychological barrier of $39,000 and reaching up to $41,490. This is the first time since April 2022 that Bitcoin has reached and exceeded $40,000. After profit-taking, it may want to return to the channel’s peak levels of around $40,750. If it breaks through, $39,800, our previous resistance level, will now act as support.

We also observe an increase in Bitcoin dominance during this period. This primarily indicates an increase in investors’ confidence in Bitcoin. In fact, according to many interpretations, an increase in Dominance is considered as the beginning of a Bull run.

ETH:

Last week, we started off positively on the Ethereum side by surpassing the resistance levels we shared. We saw positive momentum due to developments in Layer 2 networks and investors’ expectations for ETF approval.

Technically, when we look at profit taking starting, the 2152 USDT level awaits us. In the continuation of the rise, 2270 USDT, the peak of the channel, can be tested.

TRX:

There was a lawsuit filed by the SEC against Tron’s founder, Justin Sun. He is expected to make a defense by this Friday. This expectation could move the prices. Technically, it might break 0.1053 USD soon. If this breakout occurs, we expect the movement to continue up to 0.1063 USD levels. Should further news break this level, 0.1083 will become our new expectation. In case of declines, 0.0960 USD will be on our agenda.
