Bitcoin ETFs Could Boost Bitcoin Price in Q4

As a seasoned researcher with years of experience in the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrencies, I find myself intrigued by this latest development. The potential for Bitcoin to surge again, driven by increased demand for exchange-traded products, is certainly an enticing prospect. However, my life experiences have taught me to approach such news with a pinch of salt and a dose of caution.


Based on data from the crypto analysis platform CryptoQuant, it’s possible that Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency in terms of market value, might see another significant increase in its price.

This rally could be driven by fresh demand for exchange-traded products, according to the firm. 

According to CryptoQuant’s analysis, large-scale demand from Bitcoin ETFs (averaging approximately 9,000 BTC per day) has significantly contributed to the surge in the price of Bitcoin, pushing it to a new all-time high of over $73,000, as seen in March.

On Thursday, Bitcoin ETFs recorded a total of $52 million worth of outflows. 

At present, Bitcoin is nearing the $62,000 mark as per CoinGecko statistics. This digital currency has seen a nearly 2% increase after the recently released US jobs report exceeded initial expectations.

Speaking as a crypto investor, I’ve been intrigued by JPMorgan’s latest comparison of Bitcoin to gold. They seem to be suggesting that both assets could be seen as part of the same “dilution trade,” where investors seek refuge in tangible assets amid economic instability. This perspective certainly adds an interesting dimension to the ongoing debate about the role and value of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in today’s financial landscape.

Despite the favorable narrative, the cryptocurrency is struggling to regain bullish momentum during its most bullish month. 

After the initial excitement of “Uptober,” there was a significant drop in related mentions, leaving many traders unprepared for the unfavorable returns they experienced. As an analyst, I found myself observing this shift closely.

In simpler terms, it appears that most people wagering on PolyMarket believe there’s a small likelihood that the value of Bitcoin will surpass six digits in its price this year.
