Multiple Growth Catalysts – Bitcoin and Ethereum
The Bitcoin valuation adjustment in relation to Ethereum over the coming weeks judging by how investors adapt the upgrades and events within both asset’s ecosystems.
The Bitcoin market is expecting the sustained capital inflow into the spot BTC ETF products, the investment asset that has been stirring a massive growth through supply crunch. The Bitcoin halving event is also slated for the next 36 days, an event that will reduce Bitcoin’s supply by 50%, further complementing the spot Bitcoin ETF liquidity crunch and likely push price higher.
For Ethereum, there is less than 48 hours to the launch of the Dencun Upgrade on the mainnet. This upgrade will result in a massive fee slash on top Ethereum Layer-2 platforms like Arbitrum and Base. With the slash, the adoption of protocols resident on Ethereum are bound to grow, placing enormous demand on the coin overall.
While the likely approval of spot Ethereum ETF remains a divisive subject at this time, the most important ETH fundamental hinges on the Dencun Upgrade. The bull market is considered to just be starting and will likely stir BTC and ETH price from their current levels at $72,572.56 and $4,060.83 to new highs.
