Bitcoin Price Flies Above Ethereum
Throughout the year, Bitcoin price has maintained a strong lead against Ethereum. Although spot ETF was approved for both assets, BTC’s YTD return is 52%, while ETH’s hovers around 7%. This outlook will likely continue, allowing BTC to dominate ETH and other top altcoins.
Spot Bitcoin ETF’s Pivotal Role For Starting BTC Bull Run
BlackRock filing for spot ETF on June 14, 2023, amped the 2023 bull run. After the launch of spot Bitcoin ETF, there was a minor correction due to Grayscale outflows. As the outflows stopped, the real demand for BTC began to reflect, propelling Bitcoin price to an ATH of $73,949 in March 2024.
The cumulative Bitcoin ETF flows currently sit at a whopping $27.46 billion with November 15 noting a $370 million outflow.
