Opinion: approval of Bitcoin ETF will lead to asset growth to $1 million
Samson Moe, CEO of JAN3, believes that the price of Bitcoin could soar to $1 million after the approval of the first US spot Bitcoin ETF (exchange-traded fund) by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
He expects this to happen within days or weeks of the instrument being approved. In his opinion, a significant increase in price will be caused by an influx of funds from institutional investors in 2024. Moe also noted that the approval of a Bitcoin ETF would have a more significant impact on the price of the asset than the US Federal Reserve printing money.

BTC-ETF approval?
After more than a decade of waiting, it looks like the first-ever Bitcoin exchange-traded funds will soon be coming to the US - Bloomberg
To put it simply, a BTC-ETF is the placement of Bitcoin “shares” on stock exchanges. And if btc-etf is approved, then investors around the world will be able to speculate on changes in the price of bitcoin without owning it! This will lead to a fairly large jump in the price of Bitcoin and will mark the beginning of the largest bull market ever.
