Lark Davis, a well-known cryptocurrency analyst and trader, has identified several important developments in the world Bitcoin ecosystem that could trigger an even more intense bull cycle than initially expected. Davis’s perspective delves into the revolutionary changes in the Bitcoin ecosystem, such as institutional and global adoption, that have the potential to accelerate the current bull market.
According to the analyst, a major shock is about to happen to the Bitcoin supply. This is a result of miners now being able to produce only 450 BTC per day, due to the recently completed Bitcoin Halving event, which cut miners’ rewards in half.
Bitcoin Spot ETFs Ready for Catalyzed Prices
The latest country to approve the Spot Bitcoin ETFs is Hong Kong. Two weeks ago, Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission approved BTC Spot ETFs to several leading asset managers, positioning the city as a key hub for these products. Given the past impact of the funds that pushed BTC to a new all-time high, the approval of the products in HK could lead to the asset rising in value again.
Hong Kong’s move to approve spot ETF products, which are already trading today, has inspired other Asian countries, such as South Korea, Japan and Singapore, to do the same. On the other hand, the Australia Securities Exchange is already poised to accept the funds within a year.
As a result of these developments, institutions from all over the world are competing for a share of the Bitcoin market. This could cause much wider adoption of BTC, which could have a significant impact on prices.
Davis highlighted that Bitcoin availability across all exchanges is currently at record lows, and OTC desks are almost empty. Because of this, the crypto expert believes that this current bull cycle will be much crazier than predicted.
BTC prices continue to struggle
Despite the approval of the funds in Hong Kong, BTC is yet to witness any major price moves as it continues to struggle between $61,000 and $66,000. That is why several analysts expect a further price drop in the coming weeks.
Bitcoin is currently trading at $61,322, indicating a decline of 1.60% in the past 24 hours. Trading volume has increased by 41%, but the market capitalization has fallen by more than 1% in the past day.
