I want to be very brief this time.
A lot have been attributed to the next bull run which include the following:
The approval of a first BTC spot ETF: industry experts are predicting a huge investment fund coming into the crypto market when a BTC spot ETF goes live on stock exchanges, trust funds and banks with figures ranging from $5 trillion to $12 trillion dollars according to multiple sources claiming this could spearhead a big bull. Little wonder why BTC has been on a front pedal since the fake news of an approval broke out couple of day ago. Now, much have been discussed on mainstream media recently about SEC already engaging 8 - 10 ETF applicants with some like Blackrock already amending their application. All these are indications that a first BTC spot ETF trade is really close than we can imagine!
Bitcoin halving: experts claim that history is about to repeat itself as we enter the final months of BTC halving (to be completed in April 2024). Historically post-halving of BTC has commanded a huge bull in the past taking the price of BTC consistently to an ATH like the previous bulls of 2017 and 2020/21. BTC halving creates scarcity of the asset; reduced miners reward; reduced liquidity and increased price. But bulls associated with halving always comes a year after the halving is done so, we are looking at another BTC ATH in 2025 if history were to relive itself.
Massive adoption: since the clampdown on the crypto market by China that lead to the present bear market, a lot of the industry experts are of the opinion that only large wave of adoption can massively uplift the relevance of the crypto market which will consequently usher in the next bull. Well, a lot has been happening lately with financial institutions now seeking solution with the help of blockchain like Citi Bank tokenization of customers' deposits and ANZ banks trialing the use of ChainLink for banking transactions and the Automobile industry gradually accepting crypto payments such as the recent move by Honda motors and Ferrari Motors. These are all indications that adoption of crypto is finally creeping in.
Each of the above scenario can trigger the market boom but I think it's gonna be a combination of all the three this time around rather than a single factor because these factors above affects the market in their own specific ways. Hence, the cumulative effect is going to make the next bull run unstoppable!!
So, I say we keep our wallet keys close and our fiat closer and brace ourselves for the impact!!!
Remember to always do your own research, apply an efficient risk management and stay safe.
